Appearing on a Channel 4 News Leave-voters debate, the audience member – a diesel importer – hit out at the time taken to get divorce talks underway He blasted the “nonsense” coming from politicians calling for a drawn-out negotiation period. The audience member said: “There’s no free trade in services and goods, I do this for a living, I import diesel into this country – this is all absolute nonsense what these politicians are saying. “There are only two systems there’s ECMS (Electronic Confirmation Matching System) which is the system that the European Union uses and there’s CHIEF (Customs Handling of Import and Export Freight) which is the rest of the world.

“And you can switch any trade from any country in the world just by deciding which system it’s on – all they need to make a decision of is when and what day we’re doing this, we’ll do the rest, they don’t need to do anymore.” When asked about how long it would take to switch systems, the man said it could be done “instantly”. The comments come after Brexit Secretary David Davis and Michel Barnier, the EU’s chief negotiator, held a press conference after the latest round of talks.
