All part of the wonder deal negotiated by Boris Johnson.

This is a classic lockdown thread.

Starts with a relatively meh post about teething issues in the mechanics of exporting into a "new" market. The British exporter and the EU importer need to make sure that the forms are being filled in accurately and to what the boarder force expect. I for one have not yet had anything turned around but I'll be shocked if it doesn't happen at some point in the coming months / year.

It's annoying, more annoying as one used to be able to do this trade with little effort. The lesson this butcher will learn is that these forms are now gold and in the future it will open him up to other markets as he'll have the experience to be able to handle it.

The crux of this is, the people who are annoyed about this new era are the ones who weren't overly entrepreneurial and enjoyed the protectionism that the EU offered.

From a meat standpoint the EU, Egypt, USA, Russia, and Canada are all in the top 10 for importing meat. Mexico is 11th. China's largest import for beef comes from Brazil (1 day 6hr flight 4 weeks by ship). We can ship to the US and Canada in 10-30 days and we know how short the EU and Russia are when boarders run smoothly. it's gonna take time and some thinking about where your best market is and how best to make it work.

If we as a country fail it not because of the deal (which I agree leaves a lot to be desired) but because we as a producing nation could find a way to be competitive.


So what you're saying is that these people who've been exporting meat for years and voted 'leave' should Get Behind Their Country?

the government doesn't run business, their trade deals can definitely help but its not the thing that makes you competitive or not.

if all you do is rely on government good luck as I'm sure you'd agree with me that they aren't the most competent bunch.

So, let me get this straight. It's exporters' fault that the government are incompetent and that their decisions will likely cause them serious harm?

They’re just not entrepreneurial enough.

Given that the people in charge at the minute are the same people making promises in 2016 that nothing would really change in trading with the EU, you can kind of understand how they might be a bit miffed when, with about a week's notice, there's suddenly loads more paperwork and additional costs involved.

You are the most tedious unmannered yob on this forum. Thank goodness my education gave me a more dignified outlook on life than your blinkered negative one.
Just go in the corner and apologise for all the unwarranted insults you hand out - YOU DUNCE.

I think I acknowledged that its annoying in the 2nd para. I'd defiantly feel let down by the deal we got too but there are ways around it and I'm sure this butcher will be making sure that all the docs are compliant next time around.

I have got away with my 2 trades so far but I don't know if I'm doing it perfectly or if I'm dodging the bullet so to speak. Until I get it wrong I wont really know. Have to say I don't do a lot of trade with the EU so it is a less stressful situation for me than many others.

Yeah, grrr, all this red tape and additional cost that we were promised wouldn't exist is a bit annoying isn't it? Grrr.
