LONDON (Reuters) - British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said substantial and important differences remained with the European Union on a Brexit trade deal.

"Clearly there are substantial and important differences still to be bridged but we're getting on with it," Johnson told reporters. "The likelihood of a deal is very much determined by our friends and partners in the EU - there's a deal there to be done if they want to do it."
