- "These meetings will be smaller and focused on seeing whether we can begin to

make genuine and rapid progress towards an agreement."

- "This needs to be a real negotiation and some of the EU's unrealistic

positions will have to change if we are to move forward. We have noted carefully

what the EU has said in recent days on this subject [...]"

- "UK sovereignty, over our laws, our courts, or our fishing waters, is of

course not up for discussion. Equally we do not seek anything which would

undermine the integrity of the EU's single market."

- "Finally, I want to be clear that the Government will not agree to ideas like

the one currently circulating giving the EU a new right to retaliate with

tariffs if we chose to make laws suiting our interests. We could not leave

ourselves open to such unforeseeable economic risk."
