The man who negotiated the UK's rebate from the EU budget is warning the ministers in charge of Brexit negotiations to stop making unrealistic demands.

Sir Brian Unwin, a former Treasury civil servant, said Brexit Secretary David Davis was "living in cloud cuckoo land" when suggesting the odds in the negotiations were stacked in the UK's favour.

Sir Brian is ex-president of the European Investment Bank (the EU's bank) and said it would be "suicidal" for the UK to lose its ability to borrow money from the EIB to spend on infrastructure.
