30 Sep 2020 04:26AMLONDON: British lawmakers on Tuesday adopted a bill to regulate the UK's internal market after Brexit, defying a looming EU ultimatum as the two sides entered a final week of tense talks.

For the main opposition Labour party, business spokesman Ed Miliband said that"when even the Trump administration" speaks out to defend international law,"you know you are in trouble". The legislative tussle loomed as British and EU negotiators launched their last week of intense discussions ahead of a summit on Oct 16, where EU leaders will decide whether it is still worth pursuing a trade deal with London.

According to European diplomats, Britain is pushing to intensify negotiations and enter a final phase known as the"tunnel" - in which all communication outside the negotiation room is strictly curtailed."First, the UK should show some leg on the state aid, governance and fish," an EU diplomat told AFP.
