EU Chief Negotiator say key diverges clear after first round of UK-EU trade talks

The EU's Chief Negotiator has been speaking in Brussels following the end of the first round of UK-EU talks on the post-Brexit future relationship. 

Michel Barnier said that whilst a good deal was possible by the deadline of the end of the year, there were some key diverges in areas like competition rules and police cooperation. 

The next round of talks will take place in London in March.
