The new guidelines on the EU's negotiating position dominated Brexit developments this week - and it was tough talk from EU Council President Donald Tusk. With a united front the clear priority for the 27 states, Theresa May's government can expect no quarter given as the EU insists it will decide timings for any trade deal. There are also further calls for the guaranteeing of EU citizens' rights in the U.K., the need for a financial settlement before Britain leaves, and the rebuttal of any sector-by-sector deals to protect the integrity of the single market.
