New measures on the Brexit Protocol will create an “express line” on trade between Northern Ireland and Great Britain, resulting in a “win-win situation” for all, the EU’s lead negotiator has said.

European Commission vice president Maros Sefcovic said the bloc will offer to permanently slash customs paperwork by 50%, along with the removal of up to 80% of checks.
