LONDON (Reuters) - Britain is confident that it can overcome difficulties to secure a free trade deal with the European Union, senior cabinet minister Michael Gove said.

"I'm confident that we can overcome these difficulties and secure a free trade agreement, which would be in everyone's interest," Gove told parliament on Wednesday.
