UK foreign secretary Liz Truss has told MPs she believes “there is a deal to be done” to resolve the deadlock over Northern Ireland’s post-Brexit arrangements.

Speaking in the Commons this afternoon, Ms Truss said she was taking a “constructive approach to these negotiations” as she faced cross-party questions on the status of the talks.
