“We always expect negotiations to go up to the wire, it’s a very typical situation when you’re having a negotiation with the European Union.”
“I’m confident from what I hear that progress, good progress is being made but we’re going to do a deal that is right for Britain if such a deal is available”
“If such a deal isn’t available then we’re not going to sign up to something that is to our detriment.”
