Boris Johnson has arrived in Berlin to begin talks with German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

The Prime Minister has travelled to Germany as he attempts to broker a new Brexit deal before the October 31 deadline, along with a solution to the Irish backstop.

Earlier, Ms Merkel vowed to discuss with Mr Johnson how to achieve "the most friction-free" Brexit during their meeting tonight.

Mr Johnson and Mrs Merkel greeted each other outside the Chancellery and are due to watch a military display.

It comes amid warnings that Mrs Merkel and other EU leaders will not make 11th hour concessions over Mr Johnson's requests.
