Negotiators for the UK and the EU have been in last-ditch talks to try to secure a post-Brexit trade deal.
The head of the UK team, Lord Frost, said they were “working very hard” to reach an accord, although Ireland's Prime Minister said things were on a knife edge.
The UK left the EU at the beginning of 2020 and the two sides have been talking for months to try to agree a new trading relationship - when the transition rules end on January 1st.
Three main areas remain unresolved between the UK and the EU - fishing rights, competition rules and how any deal would be enforced.
