1/4 Looking forward to going to Brussels next week for Round 7 (sic) of the UK/EU negotiations with @EU_Commission
@MichelBarnier
Here is the timetable. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/seventh-round-uk-eu-future-relationship-negotiations-18-21-august-2020">https://www.gov.uk/governmen...

2/4 As always, we go in good faith to talk constructively about all the issues. Our assessment is that agreement can be reached in September and we will work to achieve this if we can.

3/4 As we keep saying, we are not looking for a special or unique agreement. We want a deal with, at its core, an FTA like those the EU has agreed with other friendly countries, like Canada.

4/4 The UK& #39;s sovereignty, over our laws, our courts, or our fishing waters, is of course not up for discussion and we will not accept anything which compromises it - just as we aren& #39;t looking for anything which threatens the integrity of the EU’s single market.
