Boris Johnson has issued a final rallying call to MPs to back his EU Withdrawal Agreement as rebels plot an amendment that could push Brexit back until the new year to avoid an accidental no-deal.

You can just picture it - the bleak, dreary midwinter day when Theresa May tables her deal to the House of Commons.

Boris Johnson declared that the controversial backstop was dead as a new deal was struck with the European Union on Brexit.

Boris Johnson told his MPs on Wednesday he was hopeful of a deal, but felt like he was on the Hillary Step of Everest, while the summit was "shrouded in mist".

Remain campaigners have failed in a legal bid to suspend the Brexit deal negotiated by Boris Johnson.
