LONDON - 22 October 2017: Britain can only come up with a figure for a financial settlement after Brexit when London and Brussels have agreed the shape of an overall deal, trade minister Liam Fox said on Sunday.

Speaking to the ITV's Peston on Sunday programme, Fox also said that French President Emmanuel Macron was "completely wrong" when he said that Britain was using its media to bluff about a no deal, adding that it would not be a nightmare scenario to trade according to World Trade Organization rules.
