'Brexit stockpiling causing 10-mile tailbacks in Calais, severe delays as businesses try to get goods into Britain before a potential no-deal Brexit on 1 January'. And this is before it has even started. A portent, an appetiser, of our great trading future. And of course brexiteers telling us it is a 'teething problem' or the tories 'not our problem'.

Originally posted by becky As far as I am aware from what I have read, Ireland exports most of it's goods to the EU via what is known as the 'short route' - Ireland to UK - by road to the UK east coast ports and shipped across to the EU. If there is a no-deal exit, all those goods will have to have the UK import tariff paid on them, making it nonviable or they have to go the longer shipping route round England to Europe. For perishable goods this is a real no no as it adds so much time to the delivery. What about the common transit convention?

Originally posted by steeleye20 EU exports are only 16% to the UK. And that gap can be filled from 140 odd other countries who will grab our business and requests. Watch the uk become a through port to the world. Setting a tax rate to suit each individual economy. Imagine the riches we get from being the middle man. Much like the eu has been for 40 odd years. They are bricking it as no matter how you want to to slant it GB is and will always be a respected player on the world stage.

You are correct in that the government and whoever is responsible for the ports have not planned adequately. The tailbacks have nothing to do with EU dirty tricks and all about lack of investment in infrastructure. That said they will get it right although it should not have happened in the first place. This is not a reason to reverse the Brexit decision but maybe a reason to kick Johnson out unless he gets his act together. Edited by Badger11 (12 Dec 2020 3.33pm) One more point

Edited by Badger11 (12 Dec 2020 3.35pm) Ha, its a great idea, but maybe a different song! Have to hedge my bets, could end up living in Ireland or Spain one day, maybe between both, so don"t want them to suffer any hardship ! We always get shafted over here so any colatoral damage i just take on the chin!

Edited by Badger11 (12 Dec 2020 3.33pm) Teething is what it is.not many of us can remember what happened when it became a big family of the common market which upgraded to the EU. I'm sure it's a similar scenario so you will have issues. It will be sorted and problems forgotten when its operating like clockwork.

UK government 'has underestimated takeup for Hong Kong resettlement scheme' - [Link] "Survey finds more than 600,000 may want to move to Britain, many within two years of January start date" Not Brexit specific, though immigration was a driving force behind that of course so this holds some relevance.
