UK and EU agree massive new Brexit deal - live updates

A major deal between the UK and EU will be announced in the coming hours ahead of a major summit. Government sources had said talks were "down to the wire" on Sunday, but a major breakthrough is said to have been agreed this morning.

Details are expected to be announced at the first UK-EU summit on Monday, when Prime Minister Keir Starmer will meet European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen for the second time in four days.

The talks were on a range of issues and an announcement is expected on defence and security, which could feature an agreement allowing British firms access to a 150 billion euro (£125 billion) EU defence fund.

Deals on allowing British travellers to use e-gates at European airports, cutting red tape on food exports, and setting up a youth mobility scheme with the EU, were also thought to be on the table but reports suggested disagreements over fishing rights and youth mobility have presented last-minute stumbling blocks.

The BBC reported that the Government had agreed to give EU boats 12 years of access to UK waters - a deal the Scottish Fishermen's Federation called "absolutely disastrous".

Government sources said "huge progress" has been made in agreeing "a mutually beneficial deal with the EU" that would "deliver for British working people".

But they said the Prime Minister has been "clear that he will only agree a deal which delivers in the national interest of the United Kingdom".
