Frost told the EU chief negotiator there was “no basis for negotiations in London as of Monday” unless Brussels came up with a new plan over the weekend, said a Downing Street spokesman. However, a European commission spokesman said: “As agreed during this week’s negotiations, Michel Barnier held a videoconference today with his UK counterpart David Frost to discuss next week’s negotiations. Both chief negotiators agreed to talk again on Monday to discuss the structure of these talks.” Describing the move to halt negotiations as a “controlled explosion”, the Brexit analyst Mujtaba Rahman said there was still hope that a deal could be done by the next time the EU leaders meet in Berlin on 15 November. So, it’s way Too Early to Celebrate, we could still be Betrayed.
