Speaking ahead of a long-awaiting EU-UK summit on 20 November, the prime minister told MPs on Monday that a "deal is on the table", which would cover things like food and drink, carbon emissions trading, and under-30s migration. The paper says the under-30s migration is likely to be the most contentious part of any agreement, and negotiations on this "are still taking place".
