Downing Street said Johnson would give details of a “fair and reasonable compromise” in his closing address to the gathering in Manchester, and would table the plans in Brussels the same day.
It stressed this would be a “final offer”, and that if the European Union “does not engage” then Johnson would keep to his threat to leave on October 31 with no deal.
