'We’re going to make a very good offer,' said PM Boris Johnson as Britain prepares to present the EU with proposals for an amended Brexit agreement
Johnson’s gamble hinges on the removal of the backstop, a policy which aims to avoid the reimposition of checks along the United Kingdom’s only land border with the EU.
The Withdrawal Agreement that former Prime Minister Theresa May struck in November with the EU says the United Kingdom will remain in a customs union “unless and until” alternative arrangements are found to avoid a hard border. “That’s just the reality,” Johnson said. “Because in the end, a sovereign, united country must have a single customs territory. When the UK withdraws from the EU that must be the state of affairs that we have.”
