Away from all the drama of the Brexit trade deal the UK has also been negotiating future arrangements for Gibraltar, a UK territory, with Spain.

About 15,000 workers come and go daily across the Spain-Gibraltar border. The Rock’s population is about 34,000 and 96% of Gibraltarians voted Remain in the EU referendum.

Gibraltar Chief Minister Fabian Picardo has told the BBC he’s aiming to get Schengen terms for Gibraltar, to safeguard free movement of people to and from Spain.

Most EU states are in the passport-free Schengen zone, but the UK has never been in it.

If Gibraltar also joined it, EU citizens arriving from Spain or another Schengen country would avoid passport checks, while arrivals from the UK would have to go through passport control, as is already the case.

“The terms for mobility between us and UK would remain exactly the same as they are now,” said Mr Picardo. Anyone arriving from outside Schengen would have to show their passports, he added. “The arrangement is NOT about the nationality of the person arriving, but their point of departure.”

“If we can, we want to finalise this before the end of the year,” he said, but added: “It’s not easy”.

The London Chamber of Commerce and Industry has welcomed the Brexit trade agreement, saying businesses would be "undoubtedly relieved" about the deal.

In a statement, chief executive Richard Burge said: "Whilst some changes from January 1 have been known, others have not and businesses will need to work their way through the detail of the deal and ascertain where the real-term impacts of Brexit may lay for them, their supply chains and customers."

Mr Burge added "businesses are aware this may not be the all-encompassing deal that was promised at the beginning of this venture.

"It’s important that both sides continue to be open minded to a need for future discussions, to ensure the best possible trade and access to goods and services in the years to come."

In early moments of relief, it's the tone that counts more than line-by-line analysis.

The post-Brexit trade deal has been met with a mixture of relief, sadness and optimism in Europe.

The EU and UK have reached a post-Brexit trade deal, ending months of disagreements over fishing rights and future business rules.

Reacting to the announcement, the mayor of London said there was "no doubt that this deal falls short of what’s best for London, the UK and our economy", and added that it "does not come close to the benefits we enjoyed as members of the EU".

In the statement, Sadiq Khan said: “The prime minister says his deal removes non-tariff barriers. That is untrue – it imposes them. From 1 January, hundreds of thousands of UK businesses are facing a costly, red tape mountain caused by the UK having to trade with the EU as a ‘third country’.

“However, now is the time for us to focus on the future, not the past. That’s why I will do everything I can to help Londoners and businesses to deal with this challenging new reality and to reassure European Londoners that they will always be welcome in our city. I will continue working for the UK to have a closer economic and political relationship with our EU friends in the future."
