Prime Minister Boris Johnson\u2019s spokesman confirmed there was no change on plans to reopen nonessential retail shops from June 15, conditional on the state of the outbreak.

Lagarde said she was confident a good solution will be found on German court and that the ECB will provide any help needed on the German rolling. The soothing tone will have gone some way to comfort euro-traders worried that an EU institutional punch up adds risks to the euro area.<\/p>\n<p>Data from Germany was disappointing and shows a long road ahead for German industry.
