A Gloucestershire designer has expressed her frustration at the red tape and tariffs dealing with Europe which have accompanied the UK's Brexit deal.

And Jade Holland Cooper runs heritage and equestrian fashion brand Holland Cooper described dealing with customers on the continent as "a minefield".

The designer, who is married to Superdry founder and chief executive Julian Dunkerton, told The Sunday Times: "Boris Johnson put us all under the illusion that there was going to be a seamless trade, but it doesn't really feel like there is a deal here at all."

The Sunday Times reported one of her customers in Belgium has been charged £400 - half the value of an order - due to incorrect paperwork.

That came on top of a 12 per cent tariff on many cross-channel deliveries.

Several leading companies, including John Lewis, Waterstones and Debenhams, have stopped accepting international orders while others have scaled back.
