94% Of Small And Medium Size Businesses Report That Brexit Has Made Trade Harder Than Ever
SME’s provide half of all jobs in the country; the Brexit impact includes reducing staff levels or closing down completely.
My mate Phil explains more in the video.
Someone (not me) responded to the video with the following message:-
Over the last seven years, I've been compiling a list of all the benefits of Brexit to the UK, as and when they became apparent. To date, the list is indistinguishable from a blank sheet of paper.
Allelujah, praise the Lord!

Um so, naomi24..
'Here we go again. Anyone who disagrees with you is stupid.'
Yep, I do wonder where that statement originated from..
here maybe https:/
Blame it on the government, the nasty now stupid party..
“Crystal clear Tory party no longer the nasty party Brexit has transformed it into the stupid party.”
To educate all you Brexiteers, here’s one example of how we have lost our sovereignty and are bound to follow whatever rules the EU decides – there’s no, us coming to an agreement with the EU, we have to do what they say.
The EU has decided that by the end of 2024 all low powered devices (such as mobile phones, tablets, cameras etc) must be equipped with a USB type C charging port.
The UK could decide not to implement this rule, but if we took that decision any such devices not fitted with the required USB port could not be CE marked and sold within the EU.
If the EU were to find non-compliant products being imported from the UK, they could increase checks (at a cost to the exporter/importer) and in an extreme case, place a ban on such products exported from the UK.
Obviously UK manufacturers do not want any friction in their trade with the EU, and will be lobbying the government to implement these EU rules – with which we have had no say.
If you don’t believe the UK will kowtow to this EU rule – watch this space.
The above will be repeated again and again, as we are forced to align our exports with EU requirements – Hurrah for sovereignty.
Manufacturers of tech and indeed everything have always made versions of their products to fit in with the regulations in the countries they sell to. That's business and has always hapenned long before the EUSSR existed and will be the case long after it collapses. By your logic EUSSR car makers are being ruled from the UK because they make right hand drive cars. Nothing to see here.
Who are those people, hymie? You don't know - just as you don't know whether those who disagree with you are sitting in armchairs or busy running businesses, providing jobs, adding to the economy of this country and, in actual fact, doing alright. You drag this country down to your miserable moaning level and give others the hump in the process.
hymie: "TTT – as a result of the EU decision on USB type C charging ports – the UK is going to mandate the same for the UK; such items sold in the UK will be required to meet these requirements – not just those exported to the EU – Hurrah for sovereignty." - what a load of twaddle, did you read my posts at 10:25/27? We all manufacture for the market we aim to sell in. Are German car makers taking rules from Britain because they make right hand drive cars? Seriously hymie, think it through me old china you are looking a bigger plonker than usual and that's not easy.
11:38 Ok then anyone who wants to sell to the EUSSR will have to supply it according to their regs. That's what happens in world trade, manufacturers supply according to the needs of the market concerned. So are Korea, Japan, China, India, USA having their sovreignty removed by the EUSSR too? They'll all no doubt be making products that use USB for export to the EUSSR. Really nothing to see here.
YNNAFYMMI, you acknowledge the SNP votes for Brexit made no difference to the outcome, so why post, "All thanks to the English Tories and the Scottish SNPers"
The phrase, "all thanks to" is used to express, "gratitude or appreciation to someone or something that has enabled or facilitated a positive outcome"
You are thanking those SNP voters, albeit ironically, so you are claiming their Brexit votes to leave, "enabled or facilitated" the outcome and that is a lie.
