The Independent reports:
Top EU leaders have given Boris Johnson an ultimatum to come up with a new Brexit plan by the end of September, or face up to a no-deal. The deadline, agreed at a meeting in Paris on Wednesday evening, comes as the bloc’s chief negotiator Michel Barnier told Mr Johnson to stop “pretending” to negotiate.
On Wednesday evening Emmanuel Macron – who has taken the hardest line against the UK – met with Antti Rinne, Finland’s prime minister and the current holder of the rotating EU council presidency.
“If the UK wants to discuss alternatives to the existing Brexit agreement then these must be presented before the end of the month,” Mr Rinne told reporters after the meeting in which the deadline was agreed.

The NHS represents a sacred promise between the state and its citizens. We are investing an extra £1.8 billion into our NHS, upgrading 20 hospitals across the country and providing every nurse with a personal training budget of over £1,000. pic.twitter.com/YeSpnzT5FW
