Another new Brexit thread

Govt statement on Overseas Territories. Good news on Lobsters. Gibraltar ‘is complicated’ - although it will likely fall under EU remit. Falklands have 6% tariff on squid which will need ‘support’.

This section was a bit ‘whiny’ for a Govt statement.

‘Despite trying everything we could, the European Commission refused to negotiate a future relationship that included the OTs. We sought to change the Commission’s position, but it declined to engage.‘

Come bob, chin up. Surely now it's time for us to all get behind a positive and forward looking rejoin campaign rather than dwell on the things we can't change?

Morning gents, how are you two today? Late start for me as I had a few drinks last night and feel a bit shabby. Did the Lords vote that deal through?

I‘m doing a lot better than Renee Watson, who is having a bad day as she tells the FT.

‘Today I find out that thanks to Brexit, from the 1.1.2021 (yes in 2 days time) the CE mark that demonstrates our products conform with regulations is no longer valid for the products we have in development & won't be valid on ANY of our products from 1.1.2022.

This means all our packaging has to be changed & we need to re-assess EVERY product we have developed. Not only that, the new UKCA mark doesn't cover Northern Ireland, so we'll also have to get everything we want to sell into NI certified with a UKNI mark as well.

The immediate financial cost of this to my small business is around £20,000!!! I WISH I had that sitting in the bank!! Add in the ongoing costs, not to mention the loss of revenue from inevitable loss of income from NI nor the increase costs in all areas of the supply chain.’
