The European Union has pushed back against British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's assertion that a new Brexit deal was in the making.

London agreed to"dynamic alignment" of rules in Northern Ireland after Brexit to preserve an"all-island" economy for animals and food products. It wants to include a mechanism of consent for"institutions and parties" in Northern Ireland.

The EU and UK also agreed to preserve the single electricity market and a common travel area on the island.The EU side says UK negotiators proposed no complete architecture for a customs solution replacing the backstop. The EU stresses the UK side admitted those"alternative arrangements" it is proposing, which would mostly be based on technology , would not be immediately operable after Oct 31.

The EU awards the title to companies, including manufactures or freight operators with international supply chains or who export outside the bloc, that meet its standards and can benefit from quicker customs controls. "These are aspirational concepts that are not fleshed out enough to be translated into legal texts," another EU diplomat said.This has not been covered in any detail so far beyond London stating a general ambition that the UK and the EU would be separate territories in that regard after Brexit.A political declaration that is not legally binding describes future ties between the EU and Britain after Brexit and makes a package with the separation deal.

Britain says the lower level of access to the EU market it would seek must be reflected in more lax LPF clauses.Escaping the jurisdiction of the bloc's top court, the Luxembourg-based European Court of Justice , has been at the heart of the Brexit campaign.
