Manchester (United Kingdom) (AFP)

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson will detail Wednesday the "final offer" on the exit of the EU he will submit in Brussels, in his closing speech of the congress of the Conservative Party, by posing an ultimatum: it is to take or to let.

According to his services, these formal proposals must make it possible to conclude "a fair and reasonable compromise" to avoid a Brexit without agreement, with potentially chaotic consequences for the British economy.

But "if Brussels does not tie the dialogue on this offer, then this government will stop negotiating until we left the EU" on October 31, they warned in a statement.

At 29 days from the scheduled departure date of the UK from the EU, time is running out to find a divorce deal.

That negotiated by Theresa May, the predecessor of Boris Johnson, had been rejected three times by the British Parliament, particularly dissatisfied with the "safety net" (or "backstop" in English), a mechanism to avoid the return of a border in Ireland between the British North Province and the EU Member State to the south after Brexit.

According to The Telegraph, the new British proposal provides for Northern Ireland to remain in the European single market until 2025, while forming a customs union with the United Kingdom.

So there would be some kind of two borders: customs controls between the two Ireland and regulatory controls in the Irish Sea, which separates Great Britain from its northern Irish province.

In its current form, the "backstop" plans to keep the UK as a whole in a customs union with the EU, as well as a further EU regulatory alignment for Northern Ireland.

"I'm not going to pretend it's going to be easy (...) but we've made tremendous progress and I hope we'll get there in the next few days," Boris Johnson told reporters on Tuesday. margin of the tories congress in Manchester (north-west).

- "Let's realize Brexit!" -

The prospect of reestablishing a border between the two Ireland in the event of a "no deal" is of particular concern to Dublin, which sees it as a threat to peace in Northern Ireland, which was hard to establish in 1998 after three decades of violence between nationalist Republicans ( Catholics), supporters of the reunification of the island, and loyalists Unionists (Protestants), defenders of the maintenance in the British Crown.

However, if negotiations fail, "under no circumstances" will Boris Johnson ask for a postponement of Brexit in Brussels. However, a law requires him to request a new postponement if he does not reach an agreement with the EU by 19 October, just after the next European summit.

"Realize the Brexit!", He must say in front of the militants, according to extracts of his speech communicated in advance.

Praised by the base of his party, Boris Johnson came to power in late July promising to achieve Brexit at all costs. In the same vein, he will present himself in his speech as the savior of Brexit, voted in 2016 by 52% of the British, against the Labor opposition leader, Jeremy Corbyn, who refused to take a stand in favor of the withdrawal or the maintenance.

A call from the Tory leader's foot to the voters supporting the "Leave" as the anticipated general elections in the United Kingdom. In precommercial elections, the executive multiplied the promises of investments in public services.

So far, Boris Johnson's strategy has been systematically defeated by Parliament, where it no longer has a majority. Tensions with MPs reached a new height last week after the Supreme Court overturned its decision to suspend parliament for five weeks.

In a snub to MPs, who had refused a parliamentary break during the Congress, as is customary, Boris Johnson will speak in Manchester instead of attending the traditional Wednesday meeting of questions to the Prime Minister . He will be replaced by Foreign Minister Dominic Raab.

A scent of scandal also hovered over the congress after accusations of touching a journalist about twenty years ago. Boris Johnson denied.
