The European Union is requesting more money and asking the UK to scrap plans to deport foreign prisoners as part of reset negotiations, leaked papers show.
A draft statement prepared by the EU ahead of the key reset summit with the UK in Brussels this month has revealed the bloc's demands, as Andy Burnham sets his sights on a closer relationship with the bloc.
The paper, seen by Sky News, shows that the EU expects "appropriate level of financial contribution towards reducing economic and social disparities between the regions of the EU" from the UK in order to begin trading in the EU's single market for electricity.
