If we have another referendum and the vote is Remain, what can the Leavers actually point to? The only possible point they could make is that a lot of people are now better informed and that this democratic result overturns one where we had less information about the outcomes, and fewer people understood any of the implications at all. How do you logically build up support for such a stupid contention? They can point to "betrayal" which they be been doing for months already. Farage incited violence within a week of the referndum if negotiations didnt go his way, some shit like " I SHOULD IMAGINE THE PATRIOTIC PEOPLE OF BRITAIN WOULD TAKE TO THE STREETS!" But it's odds on that it's no deal now so all we can look forward to is the Kent lorry park and me dying from an asthma attack because my preventer inhaler is manufactured in France Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26853 Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 I know that CT comes out with this nonsense but for an elected member of parliament to say it is ridiculous. a. If we want to trade under WTO then we have to enforce border checks. Thems the rules. b. Say we unilaterally waive all border checks and the trucks and containers continue rolling into the country, they can't get out! The EU will continue checks on their side and there will be massive delays in returning the means of transport. How is this difficult to understand?

Tbh this is why I'm not overly concerned by a dangerous level of food or medicine shortages. In the event of no deal, we will trigger an emergency WTO exemption and waive imports through unilaterally. However, EU can't and won't reciprocate so the wagons will return on RoRo ferries empty. The wagons will be driven by EU companies as our licenses won't be valid. So no immediate starvation, but economic collapse nevertheless. Our export market will cease to operate.

ewerk 26853 Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Yeah but how do you get the trucks out at the other side? There will be massive delays for haulage at the other side and therefore delays in lorries getting restocked in Europe and coming back again not to mention the incredible disruption to sea traffic.

You get them off quickly as they will literally have no stock on them and will be driven by EU licensed drivers. Doesn't take long to check an empty truck.

When you've got very limited space to do so it doesn't take long for a backlog to grow with obvious knock on effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think checking an empty truck is quite quick and is already done for illegal immigrants. Agree that even this option will take time. That's why the M26 is being requisitioned as a car park. Marvellous contingency planning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26853 Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 It will take time and not all the lorries landing in the EU will be empty, most of them will be full as it's unlikely that international shipping firms won't have a load going both ways.
