How will the UK negotiate trade deals?

Lord Marland and Lord Livingston discuss Britain's negotiation strategy for Brexit.

Senior diplomat Sir Tim Barrow has been appointed the UK's new ambassador to the EU, replacing Sir Ivan Rogers.

Sir Ivan sparked a row after his resignation note criticised "muddled thinking" from ministers and warned that free trade would not simply happen after we left the EU.

Our diplomatic correspondent James Landale discusses the appointment.

Lord Marland, a former trade envoy for David Cameron, and Lord Livingston, a former trade minister talk about the negotiation of trade deals.
