Ursula von der Leyen said the European Union is well prepared for a no-deal scenario

EU chief Ursula von der Leyen has warned that any deal must not undermine the EU single market, In a downbeat assessment of progress in post-Brexit trade talks.

She repeated Brussels' warning that Britain will not enjoy the benefits of EU membership from the outside: "There will be a clear difference between being a full member of the Union, and being just a valued partner." "We want to know what remedies are available in case one side will deviate in the future because trust is good, but law is better," she said.

This has undermined trust in Brussels, and talks have now blown past several unofficial deadlines, leaving only a narrow window for agreement before the end of the year. He is then due to return to London to resume face-to-face negotiations with his British opposite number, David Frost. Talks have been continuing by video link.
