UK Foreign Minister Jeremy Hunt said the EU gave “reasonably signals” on the changes regarding Irish backstop. He told BBC radio “compared to where we were a month ago the situation has been transformed in a positive direction”. And, “signals we are getting are reasonably positive, I don’t want to overstate them because I think there is still a lot of work to do.
He added, they are “beginning to realize that we can get a majority in parliament because they are seeing signals coming from the people who voted against the deal before who are saying, crucially, they are prepared to be reasonable about how we get to that position that we can’t legally be trapped in the backstop.”
