Armin Laschet is vowing to form a government, despite presiding over the CDU's worst performance in history. The results are not yet final and the margin is small, but the centre-left SPD could be closing in on victory. SPD leader Olaf Scholz said his party had a clear mandate to rule. Exit polls predicted a dead heat, but this election has been unpredictable from start to finish and the result was never going to be the end of the story.

Gareth Fuller - PA Images | PA Images | Getty Images The EU will “never, never, never” compromise on the integrity of the bloc’s single market when it comes to negotiating a trade deal with the U.K., according to the EU’s chief Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier. “There will be no compromise on the single market. Never, never, never,” Barnier said at Queen’s University Belfast Monday evening. “It is our main asset on the EU side,” he said. “Never will the EU compromise, (make) fragile or unravel the single market, never,” he said. The EU’s single market seeks to guarantee the free movement of goods, capital, services, and labor — the “four freedoms” — within the EU.

The ruling parties and their leaders -- Lega’s Matteo Salvini and M5S’ Luigi Di Maio who both serve as deputy prime ministers -- appeared united last year in their 2019 budget as t
