Speaking to GB News, Keith Prince, a member of the London Assembly for Havering and Redbridge, branded accusations of Brexit trade failures as a “Red Herring” because Britain was only allowed to sign new trade deals once it had left the European Union. It follows a report which claimed Brexit red tape at the border has “suppressed” trade in and out of the UK and made it more difficult. <\/p>\n

Responding to comments made by Remainer journalist Martin Fletcher who said Brexit had ruined trade in Britain, Mr Prince warned Brits to instead sit tight.<\/p>\n

In a damning reply, he said: “It is ridiculous isn’t it!<\/p>\n

“One of the points that Martin made was that we have had six-years to make trade deals.<\/p>\n

“But he forgets to mention the fact that we were not allowed to enter into trade deals until we has left the EU!”<\/p>\n

JUST IN Columnist fumes at ‘left-wingers’ who brand anyone with other opinion ‘fascists’ in rant<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He added: “We couldn’t start until we have gone! <\/p>\n

“It is just a red herring, it’s just sour grapes!”<\/p>\n

Mr Prince went further as he suggested Britain is now “ a free country” and that “we can do our own thing” with trade.<\/p>\n

But he did note that “red tape” may have to be introduced at the border to tackle moves by the European Union to introduce a biometric system to process lorries leaving and arriving in the bloc.<\/p>\n

But Mr Prince stressed: “That is our red tape, not somebody else’s and you and I both know it takes two to tango!”<\/p>\n

The Brexiteer went on to urge the French to not apply these biometric testing rules to Britain demanding Paris to be “more adult” about cross Channel UK trade plans.<\/p>\n

Host Nana Akua noted how a free trade deal with the French would throw trade chaos “into the ether” and end the trade hostility across the Channel.<\/p>\n

She added: “But they don’t want to do that, because it would like if you leave the EU, then you can still get the same benefits.”<\/p>\n

A report from the Government’s spending watchdog, the Public Accounts Committee (PAC), warned Brexit red tape has damaged Britain’s trade with the EU and the situation could worsen unless the government works with Brussels to reduce hold-ups at UK ports.<\/p>\n

The PAC warned of a potential risk that the situation could even worsen in September, when stricter checks are implemented by the bloc and expected increases in global trade result in more traffic through UK ports.<\/p>\n

Urging ministers to upgrade port systems and infrastructure, especially at Dover, Meg Hillier, the committee’s chair, said the PAC had “repeatedly raised concerns about the impact of changes to trading arrangements on businesses of all sizes, and we remain concerned”.<\/p>\n

The report added: “Much remains to be done to introduce import controls, and in particular to ensure that traders and hauliers across the 27 EU member states are ready as the controls are phased in.”<\/p>\n
