New Brexit Border Checks Coming This October

[gulliver1]

These checks will be on goods entering the UK from the EU , that up till now have not been subject to inspection and will take place away from actual borders, in new lorry parks for goods coming through Dover and the Channel tunnel. This plan will drive up prices and cause shortages as many Eu based exporters will take one look at these proposals and decide to cease supplying UK customers. As the recent tomato shortages and other goods have shown. EU suppliers have plenty of options to sell elsewhere.

I hope this works.

You might be wide of the mark on this one I'm afraid Gulliver, but the overall price of 'sovereignty' may continue to rise with the as yet one-sided checks on the European side.
Another indicator of 'oven-ready' failure from our hero.

I'll do the honours since the OP can never be bothered:

I welcome this. Anyone who has visited the less salubrious regions of the EU will have seen that food and agricultural hygiene and safety is nowhere near as stringent as it should be and it was ridiculous that simply by virtue of being located in the EU, a producer could freely ship all manner of their goods to the UK. Traders (on both sides of the Channel) will have to get used to the new regime. The idea of Brexit was to see change - not simply to carry on as before.

isnt that link out of date doug? just checking?

[gulliver1]

The price one has to pay to get a Crown stamp on your pint glass and take back control of your borders So that not even the food trucks can enter.

[piggynose]

why did you post the same link as me NJ? was there a time delay?

[douglas9401]

It is a bit old, piggynose, and I did mention that, there are many to choose from though and I picked this because it mentioned the imbalace that our leaders have let pass to GET BREXIT DONE.

Here today, gone tomorrow politicians indeed.

[New Judge]

Sorry piggy. Was typing and your post was not there when I posted.

[bazwillrun]

why are you so concerned you dont even live here...thankfully

[piggynose]

09.26 why the personal attack? please keep this thread civil! even it has a short life.

[bazwillrun]

its more than deserved...

Those that do not wish to trade with the UK are free not to do so. Other, more enterprising individuals will grab the opportunity to do so.

[gulliver1]

How come there are no Brexit Border checks on the Boat loads coming over from France After all they are imports entering the UK from the EU .
Doesn't seem to be any shortages there.

// why the personal attack? //

That is NOT a personal attack in any shape or form. Anyone who purports to live in another country and then proceeds to denigrate the UK needs to be outed.

Or perhaps you think UK bashing by the whole world is a good thing?

[youngmafbog]

Most would like Border checks Gully, however the liberal bunch we have in power, supported by the left wont let us deal with them.

But I think you know that.

[youngmafbog]

//As the recent tomato shortages and other goods have shown. //

Well not quite. There was a general shortage due to many factors so anyone with any business sense will supply close to home. However once the shortage goes, as it invariably will, then they will have surplus that they will want to shift to the UK (or anywhere else).

A few checks are a good thing, both ways.

11.53 If there's a problem with the OP why not report him? Or have you lost faith in the mods?

[youngmafbog]

Stop digging for dirt Piggy, I dont have a problem it was you that started taking Umbridge.

lol, you're quite happy to bash other countries, ymb - and so you should be. But people in other countries are allowed to do the same about Britain.
