However, there are no ministerial discussions planned for Thursday, and the Brussels chief is supposed to be in Italy, suggesting it is unlikely she will travel to London. One senior backbencher, Gloucester MP Richard Graham, called on more hardline colleagues to not obsess about “every individual comma or sub-clause” in a possible deal with the EU, and instead focus on what was best for people in Northern Ireland, including a functioning devolved assembly.
