'We have one!'
BRUSSELS — Britain and the European Union finally reached a new tentative Brexit deal on Thursday, hoping to escape the acrimony, divisions and frustration of their three-year divorce battle. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson now faces the Herculean task of selling the accord to his recalcitrant parliament — including his allies in Northern Ireland.
“This is a deal which allows us to get Brexit done and leave the EU in two weeks’ time,” Johnson tweeted. European stocks SXXP, +0.04% and U.S. stock futures moved higher, with the Dow industrials YM00, +0.19% rising by 86 points.

Johnson insists that all of the U.K. — including Northern Ireland — must leave the bloc’s customs union, which would seem to make border checks and tariffs inevitable.
