UK: ***The UK and the EU have officially come to a deal on Brexit.
- Confirmed by both PM Boris Johnson and European Commission President
Jean-Claude Juncker around 1035BST. 
- Not confirmed that DUP are on board. Either they have come around to a deal or
UK gov't is trying to force them to support with final deal agreed to. 
- Michel Barnier press conference 1045BST (1145CEST).
- The UK gov't will now seek to call a special sitting of parliament on Saturday
19 Oct to present the deal. Numbers will likely be there with DUP support, but
Labour and other opposition MPs could seek to attach amendment forcing deal to
be submitted to confirmatory referendum.
- Deal must also pass in European Parliament, seen as a much more activist body
compared to Council and Commission that both want a deal agreed to and passed
ASAP.
