How do we resolve the Brexit mess?

It's another one of those "benefits" that only has a marginal effect on most people, but together with all the other marginal negative consequences that we wouldn't notice individually it becomes a fairly big pain in the arse, and in some cases it will bite you when you least expect it. I've certainly experienced longer queues at passport control in a few cases, and those queuing for hours in their cars at Dover probably think it's more than a marginal effect. If there were some benefits to counterbalance the things that are just a bit shit it wouldn't be so bad but so far I haven't seen any at all, unless you count Kent turning into a lorry park and the additional human generated fertiliser by the sides of the roads.

‘Human generated fertiliser’ reminds me of an account of the S.Korean medics examining N.Korean defectors and finding that they were all infested with intestinal worms because the farm fields in their country were fertilised with human faeces because of the absence of imported agricultural fertilisers.
Since N. Korea is probably the nearest state to sovereign, in terms of nation status given that it is completely autonomous, then it seems that sovereignty requires eating shit- a great deal of it.
Just a thought.

I must have missed the ferry route from the UK to Portugal.

I found the passport checks at Portsmouth and Saint Malo took far longer than previously this year.
Getting back in was a nightmare. It was 5 to 10 minutes per vehicle at Portsmouth.
At least I’ll be exempt from ETIAS being over 70.

You won't be exempt. You just won't have to pay.
 
I've thought of something that we could do out of the EU that might help at airports. The airports could take ground handling back in-house, rather than having to open up their facilities to competing companies. [Council Directive 96/67/EC] Yes, folks, the free-market Tories could restore a municipal monopoly.
