P. s his leadership is beginning what he calls a new golden age he says the government will throw itself into braggs in negotiations and leave the e. U.

His 1st statement was one of optimism channeling his hero Winston Churchill promising a golden era for britain and then a message to the European Union asking them to rethink the current deal in their country that values its independence and indeed it so for suspect could agree to a treaty which signed away our economic independence and selfgovernment as this back story does a time limit is not enough if an agreement is to be reached it must be clearly understood that the way to the deal goes by way of the abolition of the backstop a request politely rejected by brussels with the e. U. Chief negotiator saying that eliminating the backstop is unacceptable and not within the mandate of the European Council a message reiterated by the Outgoing European Commission president in a phone call with Boris Johnson with saying that the position on the Withdrawal Agreement is the best and only way possible this is the last day parliament will sit before breaking for the summer but the challenges facing the new Prime Minister and negotiate a new breaks it deal in just 98.

S. And others europe and the u. S. Dont share the same approach to iran President Trump pulled out of the Iran Nuclear Deal or the european nations with china and russia a trying to keep it alive if the u. K.
