- there are tensions in EU's position
- pursuing unfair subsidies would be wrong
- it would be unacceptable to break up common market
- no side can have exactly what they want but I'm confident of an agreement

- EU is rightly taking a tailored approach in what it wants on trade
May responding to her critics that she and the UK are cherry picking on Brexit deal.
