U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson told the EU that a Brexit deal can still be approved by U.K. lawmakers if Brussels agrees to scrapping the contentious Irish 'backstop.'

U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson told the EU that a Brexit deal can still be approved by U.K. lawmakers if Brussels agrees to scrapping the Irish "backstop."A deal could still be reached before October 31, Johnson said.

"Time is very short. But the U.K. is ready to move quickly, and given the degree of common ground already, I hope that the EU will be ready to do likewise. I am equally confident that our Parliament would be able to act rapidly if we were able to reach a satisfactory agreement which did not contain the 'backstop'," Johnson told Tusk on Monday.

Brexiteers fear that the backstop would prevent the U.K. striking trade deals with other nations after Brexit. Meanwhile the EU, and Ireland in particular, say the backstop is essential for maintaining the free movement of goods, services and people and to the peace agreement there.
