Not surprising as its dark
I wouldn't think so, you will keep on with the same old rubbish you get from your papers, you must spend your whole time trawling them for anything you can use which is rather sad, you always say how good life is out there (you are alright Jack) why not just get on and enjoy it

Don't call us. We'll call you.
Friend of mine spent his life driving trucks round Europe still does a bit now, funnily he hasn't had any problems going in or out , delivered a load of boxes meat to Ireland the other day, no issues at all, just need the correct paperwork. Some find solutions some find problems
Those wanting to import just need to remember that the eu is now a third would be super state to the United kingdom.

One of the things the UK is world beating in, it's obsession regulations and paperwork. One of the reasons I moved to France was to get away from the army of jobsworths and petty bureaucrats.

What I disliked so much in the UK is these people often see themselves as government enforcers and only think they are doing their job correctly if they manage to catch you out, usually on some technicality. In France they are generally on your side and aim to help you as much as possible, just so long as you aren't trying to fool them.

Reality is already setting in. If you actually read a newspaper, you'd see no trawling is necessary. You not liking differing opinions to yours just makes my life more enjoyable

Very much depends which one. Those owned by Murdoch , not so much.
People tend to believe what they want to see as the truth, its human nature.

I would tend to agree with your views. We are far too overly controlled here which emanated form the bad old days of the 60’s/70’s I guess but we have gone too far now with risk assessment and work method statements. None of these things can really stop an accident happening - they make you think about the risk but to enact a method statement you’d need a “clipboard” person watching the whole process. In many ways our standards maybe higher than those in the EU at present so why the EU are worried about us is odd. I don’t see the UK being a conduit for other world sub std’ goods arriving in the EU by default. Protectionism has a lot to answer for, for all nations!

The EU are not worried about you, the UK has reasonably high standards, high enough to meet the requirements to import into the EU, all that is required is the correct documentation.
Most countries protect their home producers, the self proclaimed bastion of capitalism the USA uses a high rate of protection.
In a true free market UK agriculture would be decimated trying to compete with the highly efficient agricultural exporting nations.
