Downing Street has denied there are “live discussions” to get British passport holders wider post-Brexit access to e-gates in the European Union to ease queues at the borders.

But No 10 said it would welcome progress on the issue following suggestions British diplomats had raised it informally as a way to reduce bottlenecks during busy periods.

Julia: “I know you are a card carrying remoaner. I’ve always had to queue to have my passport checked!”
