Much more achievable to kick some arses and get agreement on how things can carry on as before...........OTOH, we are dealing with beaurecrats here so perhaps not.
Ready for Brexit?

Back on topic, last load of fertiliser being delivered today, I have all herbicides in stock and am about to order a base of fungicides.
Better top the diesel tank up and get some Weetabix, LHT and tinned food in stock.

Name one. That’s been done legally, and in modern times.
Oh, and D day took over 6 months to plan, before you mention that.

To be fair this took 60 days, think Elon promised it in 100 days or it would be free of charge.
By all accounts it has transforned the Australian electric network.
Even a glowing report from, the Remonaners daily, the Guardian:

One battery? Not exactly on the same scale as procurement (compulsory purchase?), recruitment (permanent, not just for a few weeks) and the likes of, what, 20-30,000 lorries and three times as many drivers, across international borders.
It’s fantasy land.

Stop looking for problems, the lorries exist, everything exists, the only restriction is the EU, do you understand why the majority voted to leave?

Because they were lied to?
The easiest deal in history, we were told. 2 years ago. It’s at T-43 days and we have nothing.
Face it, the thing needs cancelled.
What’s going to be better if it does happen?

The point is if there's will on both sides, nothing is impossible. In this instance the Australian government and Tesla had the will and it was delivered.
If there's will to keep trade moving on both sides it will.
Wartime has been when the biggest projects have been achieved in a short time period. No need or time for debate. No bureaucracy either. JFDI. An order from the very top and the military system of doing as they are told, not bickering and prevaricating. It is possible but needs emergency authority to get it done. I'm not sure there's an appetite to do this as it's basically martial law IMO. Time for a benevolent dictatorship perhaps?
The current government seem content to fiddle while Rome burns.

It should of been the easiest deal in history, we already had complete convergence on standards.
But, it cannot be a success otherwise the EU will collapse.
I think its the dissolution of British railWhat’s this Brexit thing.....?

But we don’t want the EU standards, apparently. And we just told them to F off - why would they deal with us?
and the usual suspectsOh dear. Another thread started with good intentions descends into the usual Leave/Remain bickering

There is no issue within the EU. The only issue is the UK. The EU cannot be blamed for wanting rid of the UK ASAP by now. The UK are a complete pain in their arse and they owe it no favours

Knock up a business plan on your computer this morning. Photoshop some Stobart truck pictures into your plan. Cut and paste terms from local takeaway. Set up shell company for £10. State start up capital as, say, £121million finger in the air. Appoint you and your two collies as directors Email to Chris Grayling and your probably up and away.

Carry on as before - is that not cake and eat it? UK is becoming a third country so far as EU27 is concerned. I assume over next few months we will find out what we shall miss about the EU (good and bad) Hey ho.

Exactly - and the opposite is true too, so if we offer them no tariff trade, my understanding is that we have to (WTO rules) offer it to all other countries.
Then, six months from now, we try and negotiate for new deals with for instance the USA, it’s not going to be easy, is it, when we are already giving them free access to all our market for nowt..
Maybe (to drag this back on track) I need to save up the next five years of inputs...

I just carry on as normal.....the world hasn't ended for the last 6000 yrs or so and I don't expect it to end cos of Brexit. It will still get light in the morning and dark in the night . I personally think that the only issue that is facing our Govt is the fact that after March the 29th they are going to have to govern the country which is something they haven't had to do for the last 40 yrs or so cos they have let Brussels do it. Their issue is that they are clueless how to do it so they dream up all sorts of scenarios so they will have plenty to blame if it did go wrong...but I don't think it will !
As long as Thatchers keep brewing then all will be well !
