Mr Johnson landed on Sunday night, ahead of the outcome of a Supreme Court case into whether his decision to prorogue, or send away, MPs for five weeks was lawful.
Speaking to reporters on the plane, the prime minister played down the chances of talks with Mr Tusk transforming Brexit negotiations."I would caution you all not to think that this will be the moment - New York - it might be, but I don't wish to elevate the belief that there will be a New York breakthrough. I'm not going to be pessimistic, we'll be pushing ahead but there is still work to be done.
Pressed on where the rejection of his proposals by Brussels on Friday had left him, Mr Johnson said:"I think that a great deal of progress has been made in the sense that, you know, think about when I first became PM, everyone was saying there was no chance of changing the existing agreement, and I think that nobody is saying that."
He said the agreement on the table needed to change, even though Jean-Claude Juncker, the president of the European Commission, told Sky News this week that he would not accept the re-opening of the withdrawal agreement.
Of course not the EU do not want us to leave we are on of the few that pays our full money and they know it would work and others would leave they need to have a rethink on what goes on and we need a bigger say because of it ppl would be happy with that I think
KChristelow Quelle surprise! Johnson doesn't want a deal - he just wants to blame the EU for everything.
Good!
So Bozo needs to find a ditch and with the current rainfall I wish that he would get on and do us all a favour.
*aw shocked face*
WTO LETS GO 🇬🇧
We will soon be out then ,No Deal.
Good so we leave on the 31st and shortly after the EU collapses win win
Johnson has no intention of brokering a deal.
The EU wanted the UK to have a no deal brexit all along otherwise why did they give May a deal that no one could support.
TheWarMonitor Well isn't that a surprise 'no breakthrough' on Brexit, the Brexit crisis lives on.
The 'Deal' is the worst in history, it's a downright Unconditional (and seriously expensive) Surrender Treaty. Note: Only No-Deal is Brexit.
EU is playing games with UK they will never agree to give good deal.
hopbin Bojo just running down the clock 😞
AlbertoThomas Oh well clean break it is then x
We hold all the cards
It’s no deal and leave then
CaledoniaLad Colour me surprised.
There's a surprise 🤣🤣🤣🤣lol
BethRigby In the words of wee Jimmy Krankee... fandabbydozey.
Quelle surprise!😎
Excellent 👏
BethRigby This must be some mistake, we were constantly told, during the leadership campaign, that by the ' sheer weight of his personality, ' Johnson will win a deal with the EU.
Oh how terrible I must feel! We leave with no deal and then we can start trading FREELY with big countries instead of these nonsense countries which we trade tiny % with
*breaking news* - nothing happened and he still can't achieve anything.
BethRigby Don't give into that cock BorisJohnson.. He wants blood... And lots of money from UK to keep europeanunion alive
Well I'm astounded aren't you? I felt sure they'd have had some unicorns up their sleeves, but it turns out, there just a bunch of twats.
PM for how long?
DPJHodges Good. Let's leave no deal please.
Great plan B GTFOOH
🙄 Not even trying.
Good..
DPJHodges No-deal it is!
Which is best, staying in or coming out, only time will tell. But the one thing those who think you can reform from within should have learnt by now is that the EU will not move from it's stated aims. So how can you reform?
DPJHodges They must be hopeful of something though or they wouldn't keep meeting
There never will be a breskthrough Donald, you don't want us to leave.. I've got news for you. The European Community is over... France next. Then Germany.... You all had a good innings, but sadly got above yourselves.
BigRichFilms Well, I'm shocked.🙄
