The offer was made during a call between chief negotiators Michel Barnier and David Frost and appeared to meet one of the U.K.\u2019s key demands for talks to continue.<\/p>\n<p>The lack of engagement by the EU had been one of the U.K.\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/boris-johnson-keeps-talking-with-eu-but-says-uk-should-prepare-for-no-deal\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">main complaints<\/a> leading to last week\u2019s European Council, along with a perception in Downing Street that Brussels was expecting the U.K. to be the only one giving ground.<\/p>\n<p>The British government, Cabinet Office Minister Michael Gove told MPs Monday, had made itself available to discuss the future relationship \u201cevery day\u201d during those weeks ahead of the summit but the EU was only willing to talk on \u201cfewer than half of the days available.\u201d London had also accused Brussels of not engaging on all of the issues still to be resolved, and refusing to negotiate using legal texts, slowing down progress.<\/p>\n<p>These frustrations prompted a statement from the U.K. last Friday declaring trade talks were \u201cover\u201d unless the EU \u201cfundamentally changed its position.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, Gove told the BBC\u2019s Andrew Marr on Sunday the door was \u201cajar\u201d for more talks and chief U.K. negotiator David Frost spoke to Barnier by phone Monday about what ongoing talks might look like.<\/p>\n<p>The U.K. government remains under pressure to deliver a deal, amid increasingly vocal calls from businesses worried by the economic risks of Britain leaving the EU without a trade deal and concern among many in Prime Minister Boris Johnson\u2019s Tory party about the pressure such a scenario could put on the unity of the United Kingdom, given overwhelming opposition to Brexit in Scotland.<\/p>\n<p>The opposition Labour Party, too, continues to stress the case for a deal. Labour\u2019s Hilary Benn, who chairs the House of Commons Brexit committee, said the EU and the U.K. should resume trade negotiations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA war of words does not help. There\u2019s a job to be done. The two sides should focus on the negotiations, because otherwise we will end the year without an agreement and I don\u2019t think we can afford that,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<h3>We\u2019ll think about it<\/h3>\n<p>Barnier\u2019s offer on Monday triggered a lukewarm response in London, which considers it insufficient. A Downing Street spokesman described the negotiators\u2019 phone discussion as \u201cconstructive\u201d and said the two sides have agreed to \u201cremain in close touch.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe U.K. has noted the EU\u2019s proposal to genuinely intensify talks, which is what would be expected at this stage in a negotiation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The U.K. insists, however, this is not enough to resume trade talks and wants Brussels to make concessions before formal negotiations can take place again. The government still argues Brussels is expecting the U.K. to break all its red lines on the two main stumbling blocks, namely fisheries and the so-called level playing field, which Brussels wants to guarantee U.K. businesses don\u2019t undercut the bloc.<\/p>\n<p>Gove reiterated in the House of Commons Monday that the U.K. cannot accept a deal that would require Britain to provide full access to its fishing waters with quotas almost the same as today\u2019s, and a state aid system that would give the EU the ability to punish the U.K. from deviating from its rules.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSuch talks would be meaningless and would take us no nearer to finding a workable solution,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, the tone was much more positive following a meeting of the EU-U.K. Joint Committee in London. This concluded with both sides agreeing to hold \u201ccontacts at all levels\u201d to \u201csignificantly intensify\u201d the implementation of the Withdrawal Agreement agreed between the two sides last <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/brexit-talks-not-so-over-yet-david-frost-michel-barnier\/?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Read More \u2013 Source<\/a><br \/>\n[contf]<br \/>\n[contfnew]<br \/>\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/snap.md\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/politico-logo.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<h5><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">politico<\/a><\/h5>\n<p>[contfnewc]<br \/>\n[contfnewc]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LONDON \u2014 Britain and the EU will carry on talking Brexit despite the shade-throwing. <\/p>\n<p>Brussels issu..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":151685,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[202],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-151684","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-finance"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Brexit talks not-so-over \u2014 yet - Business News Report<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"LONDON \u2014 Britain and the EU will carry on talking Brexit despite the shade-throwing.
