juncker said that progress has been made but theresa may said differences remained on a couple of issues but what the micro talks could conclude positively. that and gentlemen, the prime minister, myself, we had a friendly and constructive meeting today. it's a lwa ys constructive meeting today. it's always a pleasure to meet by minister theresa may because our relation is one of the most excellent to exist for the european union. but i have to say that she is a tough negotiator. not an easy one. she is defending the point of view of britain with all the energy we now she has. and i'm doing the same on the side of the european union. despite our best efforts, and

significant progress, we and our teams have made over the past that days, it was not possible to reach a com plete days, it was not possible to reach a complete agreement today. we have now come to an understanding of most issues, we just have some open to discussion. this will require further negotiation and discussion. we will resume the negotiations with the uk in brussels later this week but i have to say that we were narrowing our position. to a huge extent, today, thanks to the british prime minister, thanks to the european commission, to have a fair deal with britain. i am still confident that we can reach sufficient progress, sufficient progress before the european council on the 15th of december. this is not

afailure, on the 15th of december. this is not a failure, this is the start of the very last one, i'm confident we will reach an agreement this week. we have had a constructive meeting today, both sides working in good faith. we have negotiated hard and a lot of progress has been made on many of the issues, there is a common understanding but it is clear, crucially, that we want to move forward together. but on a couple of issues some differences remain which require further negotiation and consultation. and those will continue, but we will reconvene before the end of the week. iam reconvene before the end of the week. i am also confident that we will conclude this positively. thank you. the prime minister has to have a meeting with president donald tusk so we a meeting with president donald tusk so we unfortunately have come to the

end and will not take questions. it seemed that a deal was likely earlier in the day — but the democratic unionists party objected to any suggestion that northern ireland could be treated differently to the rest of the uk. this is all before we have got one scrap of concession from the eu on a free trade negotiation. it's mad. i don't think the focus needs to be on us. don't think the focus needs to be on us. the prime minister will have to look at her own party and many within her own party who could not be happy with this. and also within the implications. we are proud she has said she is a unionist and she wishes to stand up for the union, well this is one of the tests. we'll pa rt well this is one of the tests. we'll part of the united kingdom be

treated differently just part of the united kingdom be treated differentlyjust because brussels bureaucrats demand it to be in the case and the cynical abuse of northern ireland —— or because of this cynical abuse of the northern ireland by the by minister? the move by the dup "surprised and disappointed" the irish prime minister leo varadkar. the taoiseach said he wants talks to progress, but barriers still remain. i accept that the killing is negotiating in good faith. but my position is unequivocal. it is supported by all of the parties here. the majority of people on these islands. ireland's wants to see duvets two. it's very much in oui’ see duvets two. it's very much in our interest to do so. however we cannot agree to do this and that we have firm guarantees that there will not be a hard border in ireland. let's catch up with the weather
6:58 pm
prospects. at least the weather has started on a quiet note this week. i can't promise you however, and certainly i wouldn't that it will stay that way. i hope you enjoy today especially in the eastern side of the british isles, some concern to rehab, more cloud out west and more cloud to the cause of the night. it will be thickest in the north of scotland on and off, and breeze. not a cold might even if the cloud should break and i think it will, that may spawn one or two bog problems across east anglia and the south particularly. on tuesday, not a great deal of difference. more cloud than today across the east of england and scotland, but a very a cce pta ble england and scotland, but a very acceptable day for the time of year that as you say, rain and wind across the northern and western parts of scotland. 8—10 will cover it. quiet to start with then it's the middle part of the week where you really have to pay attention to the forecast, particularly if you are on the move. if you like cold
6:59 pm
weather, a bit of snow, the end of the week is just what you were after. you're watching beyond 100 days. it was all going to so well — until it wasn't. high hopes are dashed in brussels, as brexit talks fall apart. the problem is still ireland and what to do about britain's land border with the eu. there was an air of optimism here in brussels, until the dup objected to mrs may's proposals for the irish border. so, it's back to negotiating. we want to move forward together, but on a couple of issues some differences do remain, which require further negotiation and consultation. this is not a failure, this is the start of the very last round, i'm very confident that we'll reach an agreement in the course of this week.
