Brexit negotiations are reaching their culmination, with time running out to agree a free trade agreement. We review the latest developments.

We also gauge industry reaction to Boris Johnson’s announcement to accelerate the ban on petrol and diesel vehicles to 2030.

Thankfully we can finally see a light at the end of this very grim tunnel; I hope you’re managing to stay safe for the final stretch. I wish you all a happy holidays and hope to see you back here in 2021.
