MADAM - From the start of July both Switzerland and Iceland have signed Trade agreements with China - the worlds most vibrant economy.

It shows yet again that you do not have to be in a political union such as the European Union to trade globally.

The UK is still the world's sixth largest trading nation but we do not have our own Trade agreements with China, or indeed with 14 of the G20 countries.

All our trade agreements are made by the EU.

Switzerland and Iceland are showing the way.

The sooner we can leave the EU and make our own deals with the rest of the world the better.
