British and EU negotiators have re-engaged in Brussels for the final hours of the Brexit talks ahead of the latest deadline, as the foreign secretary, Dominic Raab, pinned hopes for a breakthrough on a telephone call between the prime minister and European commission president.
The talks between teams led by the UK’s chief negotiator, David Frost, and his EU counterpart, Michel Barnier, ran until midnight on Saturday and resumed on Sunday at 9am central European time, with some signs of movement.
