Using the EU’s terminology against it, the UK Brexit Secretary has told the bloc that it cannot expect to cherry-pick from UK trade.

When negotiating the terms of any free-trade deal with the UK post-Brexit, David Davis said that the EU cannot expect to cherry-pick from UK trade.

Writing in the Telegraph, Mr Davis said that the UK wants the “full sweep of economic co-operation”, which also includes financial services.

"I do not believe the strength of this co-operation needs change because we are leaving the European Union," writes Mr Davis.

"Many of these principles can be applied to services trade too. Given the strength and breadth of the pan-European economic relationship, a deal that took in some areas of our economic relationship but not others would be, in the favoured phrase of EU diplomats, cherry picking."
