Jean-Claude Juncker and Michel Barnier arrive at Le Bouquet Garni restaurant in Luxembourg City ahead of a meeting with Boris Johnson. Boris Johnson will stress his “no ifs, no buts” commitment to an October 31 Brexit in his first face-to-face talks with EU chief Jean-Claude Juncker. The Prime Minister said he believes “passionately” that a new Brexit deal can be struck with Brussels ahead of his meeting with the European Commission president. Mr Johnson will use the meeting in Luxembourg to underline his opposition to delay to Britain’s departure – despite the legislation passed by Parliament requiring him to seek an extension in order to avoid crashing out without a deal on Halloween. Writing in the Daily Telegraph, Mr Johnson said he was working “flat out” to reach an agreement, but reiterated that he would take the UK out of the bloc even if a deal cannot be reached at the European Council summit next month.
