Conversations between the two countries may result in a temporary trade agreement coming into effect on November 1 if Brexit takes place as scheduled. A Washington official claimed Chancellor Sajid Javid and US President Donald Trump’s national security adviser John Bolton discussed the possibility of a temporary trade agreement covering all sectors and lasting around six months. The official said Mr Bolton and Trade Secretary Liz Truss had discussed the two countries’ leaders signing an agreement toward a trade deal at the G7 Summit later this month in France.

While on his two-day visit to the UK, Mr Bolton praised Mr Johnson’s new work as the Prime Minister. The two met yesterday and Mr Bolton claimed afterwards that Trump was a "leaver before there were leavers". He added he would “enthusiastically” support a no deal Brexit and promised the UK would be “first in line” for a trade deal once it departed from Brussels on October 31. He showed his support for Mr Johnson by tweeting a picture of the two of them with a passionate message about the future of the special relationship.
