Britain must respect its commitments in the withdrawal treaty it signed with the European Union if it wants to have an agreement on future trade relations with the bloc, the chairman of euro zone finance ministers Pascal Donohoe said on Friday.

This plunged talks on a future trade relationship between the EU and Britain into crisis less than four months before the United Kingdom…

Britain struck its first post-Brexit trade deal with Japan on Friday, hailing the agreement as a “historic moment”, just as it is struggling to clinch a deal with its closest trading partners in the European Union. Britain said the deal, which had been agreed in principle, meant 99% of its exports to Japan would be tariff-free. Digital and data provisions in the agreement went “far beyond” those in the EU’s trade deal with Japan, helping British fintech firms operating in the Asian country, it said. Financial services firms, food producers, coat-makers and biscuit bakers – as well as cheese producers…

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Wednesday he wanted widespread testing across Britain by the spring to allow people “to lead more normal lives”, describing the effort to get to mass testing as a “moonshot”. Johnson told a press conference that he wanted faster, easier tests to be spread across the country so more testing could allow places such as theatres to reopen. He said the scheme would be piloted in northern England from next month. “Our plan, this moonshot that I’m describing, will require a giant collaborative effort from government, from business, from public health professionals, scientists, logistic…

European Commission Vice President Maros Sefcovic will meet British counterpart Michael…

A government minister has acknowledged it would break international law in a “limited way”, and it jeopardises trade talks with the EU. Under the United Kingdom’s delicate constitutional balance, semi-autonomous parliaments and governments in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland known as the devolved administrations have powers over areas like education, health, policing…

Tough new lockdown restrictions on social gatherings across the whole of England are to be announced on Wednesday as Prime Minister Boris Johnson tries to control a spike in COVID-19 infections. From Sept. 14, groups of more than six people will be banned from meeting and fined if they fail to comply, Johnson will say.
