“It’s time for parliament to stop this circus,” said Fairbairn after MPs rejected May’s divorce deal for the second time. The British Chambers of Commerce, which represents thousands of firms, also insisted a no-deal exit had to be avoided. They too voiced anger that politicians were still grappling with implementation of the 2016 referendum result, issuing a stinging rebuke to Hammond’s Conservative Party, traditionally regarded as a big supporter of private enterprise.

Under the proposal, 87% of imports into Britain will be eligible for zero tariffs, compared with the current level of 80%. “These are being imposed on this country with no consultation with business with no time to prepare,” Fairbairn told BBC radio. And the BCC lambasted the “abrupt” move as an “unwelcome shock” for many businesses.
