A Load of Squit 5,162 Posted October 16, 2020 24 minutes ago, PurpleCanary said: No, you're quite wrong BF. Tariffs on imported goods get paid by the exporting country. I know this because Trump has got Mexico to pay for the border wall by putting tariffs on imports into the US...🤓 https://www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk/explainers/trade-tariffs Who pays tariffs? In general, the importer pays the tariff. Tariffs are collected by the national customs authority of the country into which the goods are being brought (so tariffs on goods entering the UK will be paid to HMRC). Exporters do not usually ‘pay’ the tariff as such – rather, they experience adverse effects from their product being made more expensive on the foreign market. This means they may have to cut their prices to remain competitive, for example. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rock The Boat 1,332 Posted October 16, 2020 Excellent news. Absolutely the right decision and shame that this wasn't our negotiating position in 2016 as we would have saved four years of EU nonsense. On the bright side it weeded out all those traitorous remoaners from Parliament so it wasn't a complete waste of time. Now it's time to go the offensive and start screwing the Irish and teach them a damn good lesson not to mess with us on backstops. When the Irish farmers have no ready market in the UK perhaps they will turn their attention to those prats in Dublin. Let's get the Royal Navy immediately deployed to the Channel.

As the government admitted back then, the UK never lost sovereignty the whole time it was in the EU, so restoring something never lost was an impossibility. But you can certainly put a price on chasing that mirage and now the people in the UK the least able to cope with a self-inflicted economic downturn are going to find out the hard way just how painful that price is. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

French fishing boats and small rubber dinghies being legitimate targets, Aye, if we exit the EU without a FTA in place the UK’s new tariff regime will apply to all EU27 imports -- Instantly the Irish beef and dairy industry will be hit, as will many other industries in all other EU countries. According to EU Commission figures, last year the EU sold €318.7 billion of products to the UK each year – that’s €124.9 billion more than the UK sold to the EU27 --- Some of these imported products from the EU will now attract zero tariffs, whilst some will now be subject to UK tariffs for the first time in nearly 50 years. Many Brexiteers like myself have already started buying British in place of EU27 goods, on principle and as a result of the EU’s bullying attitude to the UK since 2016 when the majority of the electorate voted to leave. When the UK general population is faced with the choice of similar products, one from the EU where a UK tariff has been applied, or a British product with no tariff affecting its price, I suspect that a process known as ‘substitution’ will kick in. In many cases this will result in increased demand for British products – and for non-EU products which no longer have high EU tariffs applied – and the result will be a fall in sales for EU27 producers. Onwards and upwards, RtB, Ricardo, Moy and fellow Brexiteers 👍 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders chief executive Mike Hawes warned it would have a “devastating impact” on the automotive sector, hitting jobs “in every region of Britain”.
