EU calls for urgent reboot in talks with UK to stop reset deal failing

Time is running out to find agreement on areas such as tuition fees EU citizens would pay in Britain and rules for food safety

The EU is hoping to urgently reboot talks on the “reset” of relations with the UK as negotiations are in danger of foundering before a planned July summit.

At a public meeting of the EU-UK parliamentary partnership assembly in Brussels, the European Commission vice-president and trade commissioner, Maroš Šefčovič, said both sides had to “change gears” now to ensure the deal got over the line.
