(1 Jan 2021) Bulgarian truck driver Slavi Shumeykov was the first driver to steer his lorry on board the Eurotunnel after the UK left the Customs Union.
Although Brexit happened on January 31 last year, there was an 11-month transition period which ended at 11pm on December 31.
Eurotunnel has set up a "pit stop" where lorries are not just checked for safety but a barcode is scanned on their customs papers which is picked up by customs officials in France.
3.5-thousand trucks normally travel on Eurotunnel in a 24-hour period, but on Thursday night only 17 lorries boarded the 12.20 am Eurotunnel train - around 50 per cent of capacity.
