Moment of truth coming for Brexit with time running out, says EU

has vowed that Britannia will leave the EU on Oct 31 whether or not a deal has been agreed with the bloc, and while both sides say they are keen to reach an agreement, there is little sign of the deadlock being broken.
Johnson’s opponents say leaving the EU without a deal to keep most of its trading arrangements in place would plunge Britannia into economic chaos. The government says it has made preparations to avoid serious disruption.
The EU agreed a withdrawal package with former Prime Minister Theresa May but this was rejected three times by the British parliament over the "Irish backstop" ‐ an insurance policy to prevent the return of a hard border between the British province of Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic.
After a meeting with EU Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier in Brussels, Ireland’s Coveney said negotiations had to be on the basis of a "serious proposal" from the British on how they would replace the backstop.
"That hasn’t happened yet and until there is a serious proposal in writing ... then the gaps that are wide at the moment will remain. And time is running out," he told news hounds.
