I never knew fishermen could be so militant. What is this, the Spanish armada round 2?
Big fines might!All the customs officers and checks in the world wont stop the fishermen blockading every port if the fishng quota is taken off them.
If the quota for fish is taken they are bankrupt,nothing too do all day but sit in a boat blocking a harbourBig fines might!
Again, I think you best read what I have written again.
The UK does not do large amounts of customs checks on freight: no country in the world does. The reason being that the volume of international freight worldwide is so huge it is basically impossible to do. It's intelligence led.
The French and Spanish always did like a good blockade. They will only shoot themselves and everyone else in the foot at the same time as usual.That's true but who will that annoy more EU importers or exporters of perishable goods ?
It's about time the grown ups got involved instead of playing politics
They may not currently do them, but it's going to. The very fact they are having to build 12 new Border force customs areas to carry them out would indicate that. And from the HMG documentation:
- From July 2021: Traders moving all goods will have to make declarations at the point of importation and pay relevant tariffs. Full Safety and Security declarations will be required, while for SPS commodities there will be an increase in physical checks and the taking of samples: checks for animals, plants and their products will now take place at GB Border Control Posts.
So again, you solely focus on negatives. I just highlighted a potential positive out of some promted negativity and you resort immediately to what I stated above without hesitation.... I rest my case...
None, will be a bit cheaper this year, its what you will do with your products be the question ay.What are you on about Ant?
What is stopping Australia and NZ selling us lamb at the moment? Not much that I can see?

Boris going to build build build and invest in tech economy....dont see farming anywhere in there?
How will the infrastructure make money?
Ant...
Right, now the channel ports are blocked, there are no airlines available to carry freight and walking on water hasn't been approved by hse yet, what necessities are we going to miss?

Infrastructure uses commodities and labour locally - so money directly gets invested. Those working require resources - food, fuel, clothing, shops, places to sleep, cars MOT'd, equipment serviced, electricians etc. New small businesses will be created to service the construction population and future maintenance. People will move to the area - more housing - becomes compound and then spin-offs.
Farms can capitalise locally by providing commercial rent, parking, food etc - in the worst case new housing on farming land (Some of course will be consumed by new roads etc)
New service stations for road, rail & air will be self sufficient. As will the schools, doctors etc that cater for the new workers.
Seen it in my own area over the past 35 years - all happened since new motorway - might be a new railway soon via HS2 - new airport/rail hub locally as well. Itterative investment, also having a massive commercial estate being built locally creating 6,000+ new jobs. And that's just near my village/town .. lots going on in other towns in the area, such as new Amazon warehouse, HS2 servicing/maintenance yard, opening an old canal. lots of new housing estates ..
You have deliberately missed the point as usual. Uk levy paid to the EU is largely distributed for infrastructure projects in other countries like yours. Now you will have to find another sucker or stump up for your own projects to a greater extent.Fantastic that it has been so successful in your area over the past 35 years as you point out. Being in the EU all those years, doesn’t seem to have hampered things. That’s nice .... as Mrs. Brown would say!!
Only one difference to Ireland, the EU paid for all your new infrastructure as indicated by all the signs, the UK tax payer paid for ours and as now you keep saying you are a net payer into the EU you wont get that investmentFantastic that it has been so successful in your area over the past 35 years as you point out.

last time i was in the southwest of england. or traveling thu Scotland or Wales all i saw was "project funded by EU" signs at all the major infrastructure.
also don't forget that while the EU may have paid. and the infrastructure is in different countries. BRITISH firms made huge profits out of the contracts to build the infrastructure
and speaking of infrastructure, can't wait for Boris to build this.
