By: Gideon Rachman And so we stumble onwards. The extension of trade talks between the EU and the UK should not be a surprise. For all Boris Johnson s bravado about prospering mightily , the British prime minister knows that a no deal Brexit would be disastrous for the country. The EU would also suffer, but not nearly as much. So there will probably be a deal struck before the end of the year; if not, soon afterwards.
