First it was the fruit 14:06 - Jun 23 with 1095 viewsHARRY10

A month or so back it was announced that exports of ffruit to the EU had halved. Now we are told that Meat and Fish exports to the EU have halved

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-food-trade-eu-labour-b2362

This was obvious BEFORE the referendim, as leaving the EU meant easy exporting would end, and piles of red tape would follow.

I am reminded of a mate trying to explain to a thicko that if Town were going to close one third of it's turnstiles, require people to produce two forms of ID and have it checked before then filling in a three page form, it WOULD slow things down. That is what brexit has done to business.

Sadly it is only the beginning. Some of the reduction in fruit exports is simply down to UK farmers reducing what they grow. That will happen with farmers. Remember the huge number of pig carcasses that have to be burned or buried.

Covid acted as a mask (no pun) for Brexit failings.Any decrease in trade/production could be blamed on Covid. . There was a small businessman on QT last night. Explaining what brexit is doing to his business, and no doubt to thousands of others in a similar position.
Brexit has imposed 4 million extra customs forms per week on these people.

Still there's always Eurostar....... which is cutting journeys because of brexit

https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/jun/23/eurostar-brexit-cross-channel-t

"Thanks to the bureaucracy of Brexit, London St Pancras’s capacity has been cut by a third. Then there is Kent, where Eurostar stops at Ashford and Ebbsfleet have been scrapped for the foreseeable future, leaving behind empty stations and multi-storey car parks."

"Eurostar has run up against new border constraints, now stamping passports in separate queues — a process so time-consuming that Eurostar can no longer board everyone on time, and deliberately departs with empty seats. About 350 out of 900 seats are normally left unsold on the first services between London, Paris and Brussels"

Euro star - fewer journeys

So what else did the thickos think would be a good idea -

Long queues for passport checks

Limited time in the EU - 6 months instead of indefinite

Pets. costly procedures to take your pet into the EU

Roaming charges for your phone

Damaging inbound tourism to the UK by banning more than 200 million EU citizens who have national identity cards but not passports.

Massive drop in foreign language students. Teenagers who spend three weeks in the UK in the summer. Schools are closing. Hosts are losing income as they now head to Ireland

It's worth noting that in 2018 Fartrage admitted his children have German passports, so none of the above applies to them. This gobs hite also told us in 2018 "What you can’t see is that the European project is disintegrating before our eyes.”

No. What is disintegrating is your money making scams.....ukip, the brexit party, deform and the con trick you peddled

If I were single, had a couple of beers inside of me, I probably wouldn’t say no.
