Didn't take long, did it?

[elguapo4]

Surprised it took as long as it did.

[Satchmo Distel]

I thought that some protections were built into the agreement?

[Toby Gymshorts]

They are. Essentially if the UK (read: the fucking government) does anything to undermine the level playing field, we'll be slapped with tariffs so hard our heads will spin.

So they'll (read: the fucking government) do exactly that, and obtain their hard Brexit via the back door.

Leave.eu is no longer based on the UK but has moved to Ireland.

It's the Heil so if you don't want to click, the summary is that whole fish thing isn't going well, nor are a lot of other things.

Leave.EU not welcomed after fucking off to Ireland

Pretty funny for a Fine Gael TD to complain about Ireland being used as a "brass plate of convenience" for companies.

Thank fuck for Covid and Trump keeping this out of the news, eh? I see we're being encouraged to clap for the NHS again.

But John Redwood said Dover was grand yesterday!

[Gangster Octopus]

But why Dover - Calais? Is it important for some reason?

[Diable Rouge]

Channel Tunnel presumably?

I think GO was making a joke at the expense of whichever Tory minister revealed his surprise at the fact that a lot of trade crossed the channel

[Jimski]

Dominic Raab - didn't stop him subsequently being made foreign secretary though. (He was Brexit secretary at the time.)

That would be Dominic Raab, the er, Foreign Secretary.

What's the exchange rate at the moment? I was under the impression that goods under the value of €22 did not attract any customs duty. Hang on though, could it depend on what the goods are?

This week was always going to be quiet, it'll start ramping up a bit next week but Covid restrictions seem to be suppressing the volume of traffic a bit and mitigating the worst of it.
