Britons face even longer waits at EU airports in the coming months, a former borders chief said today - despite the PM claiming his Brexit 'reset' will end huge queues.

Tony Smith, who was previously director general of UK Border Force, warned about the looming impact of new entry requirments being imposed by Brussels.

'If you think the queues are bad now - you ain't seen nothing yet,' he said of the EU Entry/Exit System (EES), which is set to belatedly come into force in October.

Mr Smith issued the alert as he dismissed Sir Keir Starmer's efforts to allow British holidaymakers to use e-gates across the EU as part of his 'reset' deal with the bloc.

After a UK-EU summit in London, the PM claimed his wide-ranging agreement with Brussels would include Britons being 'able to use e-gates when they travel to Europe'.
