Free ports are small free-trade zones, sometimes called special economic zones, in which the normal tax and tariff rules of the country in which they are based do not apply.estimated that there were about 3,500 such zones in 135 countries worldwide.
The advantages of doing that within the EU customs union are relatively small, because you still have to pay customs duties to export finished goods from a free port into the rest of the EU. There would also be greater benefits because the UK would no longer be in the EU single market, so more tariffs would be payable outside any free port.suggests a free port strategy could create tens of thousands of jobs in areas where they are most needed.

You are allowed to say that Sunak lied
HE LIED ABOUT IT!
So what you mean to say is 'Chancellor RishiSunak Lied to Parliament' Just like he's lied many times before. And just like most of his Conservatives cabinet colleagues have lied many times. Pretty sick of this constant Rishi Fan Club content from the once-impartial BBC
One of the Freeports was in Liverpool. It added precisely zero to the local economy.
Perhaps the eu would resist the creation of new freeports and perhaps only now we are not pouring billions into the eu's coffers we can afford to create freeports. Either way the BBC is showing similair loyalty to the UK as the two ex Royals that deserted!
Or as any other reputable Journalist would report “Rishi Sunak Lied” BBC ToryMouthPiece
Why not change the headline here to say he LIED
So Boris Johnson lied to parliament and the nation, it's odd that the Conservatives are calling for Nicola Sturgeon to quit claiming she lied to the Scottish parliament and yet week after week Boris Johnson lies to the Westminster parliament and Conservative MPs do nothing.
Do Sunak LIED then, which is BREAKING the MINISTERIAL CODE - Then you should say so. You should also point out that breaking the ministerial code is a resigning matter.
Call it what it is then. Stop whitewashing.
Can you start being a news channel and call it out for what it is? Lies.
BBCWorld I owe you an apology to ever doubt your sincerity and professionalism. It’s was just like a dream to me when I received my first payment. After my second payment it became a reality now after several payments it has become a way of life. marksust7
When a senior minister lies, And you know he lied, And we know he lied, Shouldn't you, as a public service broadcaster, have the guts to tell us he lied? You certainly have the duty
THE TORIES DON’T CARE ABOUT US
So why not call a lie, a lie?
Thats an outright lie please correct it.
Wtf is wrong with this 'institution' called (not by me), the BBC? Why is it not holding the government to account? Why does it slant its reportage towards the government? Is it because it's been installed with Tories? And if so, why would that be? Can I have a journalist job?
Pointing this out after broadcasting the lie (again) is inexcusable (again) and it’s no wonder trust is is zero BBCBias ToryLiars
Keep backpedaling!
So Sunak was either ignorant, or lying. Our national, public service broadcaster should not be afraid to say that.
There are 83 Freeports in 21 EU member states. The EU has tightened rules to tackle the concerns about tax evasion, criminal activity and money laundering. The UK had Freeports until 2012 when the tory government closed them due to the above concerns and lack of material benefit.
It's a lie, again.
Leaving is the only answer to solve the problems caused by uh.. leaving.
Flexibility to become even more criminal than we already are.
So this ‘Brexit does give the government more flexibility’? How does this actually work?
Those that wanted lockdown - THANKS A LOT hope you are paying for this as well
What a ludicrous blatant lie from Sunak makes me believe many of his other promises just hot air
He did not tell the truth. Simple. Don't bother to justify him. People are better informed than you think.
Love the comments 'Tory lies' They are all professional liars, each and every side. Until that changes don't ever think they are there for me and you.
BBCPolitics Great to see yet more opportunities to being free of the constrictive, heavy-handed EU. The advantages of being a dynamic, more nimble independent country just keep on coming... 🇬🇧
BBCWorld Why was Trump banned?
no
I worked for a major pharmaceutical company and EU incentives often decided where new products were placed..
So, he lied. He said 'only possible because...' Stop making excuses for him, they will take away the licence fee anyway. Repeat after me... The. Chancellor. Lied. To. The. House.
So RishiSunak is lying. And either he knows he is lying, given that David_Cameron closed Britain's freeports in 2012, or he is an utter incompetent who doesn't know what the Tory Party has been doing. Which is it?
Recently my friend's baby was diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukemia & needs a stem cell transplant. Jason & his wife are first-time parents caring for a sick baby & could use some help. If you are in a place to donate or share, it would be appreciated.
Anyone else imagining Boris think Tenet is real
