Breaking: Irish source says Theresa May indicated during this morning's bilateral meeting with Leo Varadkar that she does not believe it is possible that a deal on the Irish backstop can be reached in time for the October European Council. [thread]
The source described the meeting as "useful" and said there was "an open exchange of views" between both sides, with the Irish delegation emphasising that the time was short and "we need to get to the stage where we can consider a legal text" on the backstop.
The source described British proposals so far as "only an outline, and we haven't seen specific proposals from the British side." Theresa May was "keen to bring negotiations to a conclusions as soon as possible...She said she doesn't think it's possible by the Oct summit."
