Commission gives Juncker-May readout. May suggested legally binding changes to backstop. Juncker 'underlined' EU won't reopen Agreement. But he said EU is ready to beef up Political Declaration. Talks were 'robust but constructive'. UK & EU negotiating teams will restart talks.

There Will Be No Customs Delays
As per the FT:
"Goods shipped to Britain from the EU will be waved through UK ports without checks for a temporary period if there is a no deal Brexit, HM Revenue & Customs announced on Monday.As I noted the other day, the laws of man can be changed at the stroke of bureaucrat's pen as HMRC have just proven!
In a move aimed at reducing gridlock at UK ports if Britain leaves the EU without a deal, HMRC said it would introduce “simplified importing procedures” for an initial period of one year. In a letter to 145,000 VAT-registered companies, the UK’s tax collection agency said that, under its plans, companies transporting goods into the UK would be able to defer making a full declaration until after the goods had crossed the border.
Companies would also be able to defer paying any duty until the month after import."
