* FTSE 100 down 0.3%, FTSE 250 lost 0.2%
Oct 20 (Reuters) - London's FTSE 100 fell on Tuesday on
concerns over tougher coronavirus lockdowns in parts of England
and Brexit-related uncertainty, although losses were limited due
to upbeat quarterly results from Reckitt Benckiser .
The blue-chip FTSE 100 .FTSE dipped 0.3%, hurt by energy
.FTNMX0530 , bank .FTNMX8350 and miner .FTNMX1770 stocks,
while the domestically focussed mid-cap FTSE 250 lost 0.2%.
Britain sees no basis to resume trade talks with the
European Union unless there is a fundamental change in approach
from Brussels, chief negotiator David Frost said on Monday,
dashing earlier optimism that negotiations could carry on.
Reckitt Benckiser Group Plc RB.L jumped 1.9% after the
Dettol and Lysol maker reported a bigger-than-expected rise in
third-quarter sales, boosted by stronger demand for cleaning
products.
