"Madam President, as a member of the Chilean delegation I visited Chile last year. I am quite happy with the Free Trade Agreement we have with Chile, and I agree that Chile has proved itself to be a strong and reliable trade partner. Great strides forward have been made in Chile with respect to human rights. It is now a fully functioning democracy and has put aside all its past troubles, but I think we must be very strong with the human rights element throughout Latin America.
I attend lots of talks where people ask me about Free Trade Agreements, as they wonder what exactly they are and I have to tell them. They ask if the United Kingdom would not have a Free Trade Agreement if it left the European Union. That is a good question, because here we are with a Free Trade Agreement with countries on the other side of the world, yet the threat to the people that I represent is that if you leave the EU you would not have a Free Trade Agreement. I think it is probably relevant that I make the point here in the Chamber at some point, so I have done so tonight."@en1
