🙄 Bullshit to this! I've just returned from Spain & can confirm that British passport holders were directed to so-called e-gates at the airport.

The Spectator Has anyone considered that letting UK citizens use e-Gates is in the EU’s interest? Passport control staff are expensive, slow and will make errors. UK citizens clogging up airports is not good for them. Have we negotiated hard for something that was cheap for them to give away?

Keir Wrong Un to be frank, it's a nothing burger. Swapping fishing rights to sea which doesn't have fish in exchange for e-gates in airports who already have them. Media in meanwhile goes bezerk and hysterical, ranging from game changer to a surrender 🤣

Jul abbott Sam Coates Sky Families with young children can’t use e-gates.

#YooKay media noise is always inversely proportional to substance. #UKEUSummit produces nothing burger, swapping fishing rights for sea which doesn't have fish to non existent UK exports while opening door to EU youth who don't want to go to UK, e-gates to airports who have them

UK Prime Minister If your beloved EU hadn't been so vindictive, the e-gates was a courtesy they could have reciprocated anyway, yet you sell out our fishermen for it.

Matthew Erm, we do care about democracy thanks. 😬🤦‍♂️ And loads of places already allow Brits to use e-gates, neither has this deal promised any change, so you've fallen for a load of guff. Oops!

Pathetic. What difference is a queue, they’re as long as each other! The eu nations are chasing tourists away so who’s benefitting from this nonsense? UK on verge of deal with EU to let Britons use European passport e-gates - The Guardian apple.news/AVrz_BRNVR5qWU…

Anyone implying we could always use EU e-gates are incorrect schengenvisainfo.com/news/uk-insist…

Christopher Snowdon we can already use the e-gates. I haven't used anything else since Brexit. obviously lucky my airports already deploy them but it's obvious that for cost reasons the EU would do that for all non-EU people eventually.

Mikey Smith I've never had any problems going abroad and standing in a queue for all of 10-15 mins. E-gates are not a big deal and certainly not worth what we've had to concede.

Simon Calder But European travellers coming to the e-gates in the uk come straight in?

Mikey Smith E-gates aren’t a big deal in any way.
