LONDON (Reuters) - Britain remains committed to trying to bridge differences in trade talks with the European Union, but will not accept any deal that does not respect its sovereignty, a spokesman for the prime minister said on Thursday.

"We're determined not to leave any route to a fair deal untested, which is why we've asked the negotiators to continue to negotiate today and tomorrow," Boris Johnson's spokesman told reporters.
