LONDON - Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s last-ditch attempt to clinch a Brexit deal was thrown into disarray just hours before a European Union summit on Thursday when the Northern Irish party he needs to help ratify any agreement refused to support it.

British and EU negotiators worked through several nights to agree a draft compromise on the Irish border issue, the most difficult part of Brexit, haggling over everything from customs checks to the thorny issue of consent. “We will continue to work with the Government to try and get a sensible deal that works for Northern Ireland and protects the economic and constitutional integrity of the United Kingdom.”

A Brexit supporter who was the face of the campaign to leave in the 2016 EU referendum, Johnson has repeatedly said he will not ask for a delay though his government also says it will obey the law. But any deal must be ratified by the British parliament which has defeated similar deals struck by Johnson’s predecessor, Theresa May, three times.

Policy shift anticipated as North Korea's Kim rides white horse on sacred mountainAides to Kim Jong Un are convinced the North Korean leader plans "a great operation", state media said on Wednesday in a report that included lavish descriptions and images of the leader riding a white horse up North Korea&39;s most sacred mountain. In the photos released by state media, Why does the color of the horse matter? The next stage in the evolution of dictators is to think of themselves as gods. He is trying to look important, wishes the North Korean people would think of him as godlike. Yet he is a mere man, and not a good man at that. He will be in the ashes of history.
