UK Brexit Deal

Reaching Brexit deal this month; not certain says UK's Secretary of States for International Trade

United Kingdom Secretary of States for trade, Liam Fox said, it is impossible for him to say if Brexit deal can be reached with the European Union this month or next. On the other hand, British Prime Minister, Theresa May said the Brexit deal is 95% close to being sealed. The British government wants an agreement from the EU as it says a deal is better than no deal. Fox said it was more important to get the right agreement than the quickest one. Britain is due to leave the EU in just five months, yet there is still looming disagreement over an Irish "backstop"- an insurance policy to ensure there will be no return to a hard border on the island of Ireland. That is, between Northern Ireland ruled by Britain and EU member state; Ireland, if a future trading relationship is not timely established.
