I assume this is the reality of the very protective EU system. One way to reduce competition is to make entering the market as difficult as possible. So a “free trade deal” that has taken 4 years of absolute nonsense it more or less useless as they have other “tools” to control imports. We are now on the other side of the fence and can witness what all the other nations have experienced for a long time. Interesting times.

What EU system? It was Rosehills Carlisle who refused an incoming journey plan until all the trucks and the drivers had passed a UK copy of the Dutch accreditations? This is for UK farmers needing replacement heifers for those in UK wiped out by TB

I say again why doesn't WATO just stand in the UK as it's the UK regs underpinning EC1/2005

Simple and DONE

No need to re-invent any wheels

I am also indebted to a UK TFFer for hosting for the driver assessments today

Similar age, yes. I would have loved to have spent my life working for an English manufacturer but a lifetime in grass machinery; there aren’t any over here. The last to go was Taarup Kidd many moons ago!
