Bill 1,788 Posted November 19, 2020 (edited) the carnage is already upon us "People may struggle to get their Christmas orders delivered in time this year, with a haulage boss warning that chaos at Britain's biggest port is "getting worse" and will lead to a "very challenging" festive season. Pre-Brexit stockpiling, coronavirus, and a backlog of around 11,000 containers of PPE at Felixstowe port in Suffolk have been blamed for creating long delays and preventing retailers from receiving stock in the run-up to Christmas." https://news.sky.com/story/christmas-orders-may-not-arrive-on-time-as-covid-and-brexit-stockpiling-cripple-major-uk-port-12134655 And this before the 4 million extra forms per week, or the chaos of the Kent Access Permit comes into force. No wonder the UK has already pushed the customs checks on EU goods back another 6 months. "A major supplier of customs software has raised doubts about whether the system for dealing with trade between Northern Ireland and Great Britain will work properly in January. The Brexit deal means customs declarations will be needed for GB-NI trade. Agency Sector Management has warned that "the spectre of paralysing the whole of NI's trade movements is real". I don't remember brexiteers telling us that there would be an EU border in UK sovereign waters, or that the EU could tell the UK where it’s lorries could travel t either.
