MEPs will tomorrow vote on whether or not “sufficient progress” has been made on the current phase of Brexit talks. The Parliament’s Brexit Steering group (BSG), chaired by Guy Verhofstadt has tabled a draft resolution welcoming the joint progress report presented by EU and UK negotiators last week. However, Mr Verhofstadt has also tabled two amendments stressing the need for negotiating in good faith following last weekend’s puzzling comments by the UK’s Brexit secretary David Davis. During an interview with the BBC, Mr Davis said guarantees on the Northern Ireland border - included in the joint EU-UK report - were not legally binding unless the two sides reached a final deal. The Fine Gael MEP Sean Kelly says there’s no going back from what was agreed last week.
Out words: has been guaranteed.
