On the plus side:
Sturgeon is unhappy
Nigel Farage seems reasonably happy
Femi is unhappy
On the worrying side:
Dominic Grieve is happy

Actually Sturgeon is probably secretly happy there was something to gripe about to keep the dream of independence alive. One fifth of Scottish seed potato exports at risk, or at least not specifically factored into this deal. I'm not sure why.
Edit: once we've got all the fish we'll need more chips anyway.

Knickers (English language, Term used to indicate something/someone is Bullshite.)
Most Proletariat of the Former Union of Soviet Socialist Republic (CCCP ) still believe that communism is better than their current sham democratic existence.
They most probably see the ex-party leaders (Bastirts) profiting from their positions whilst the working man's status has remained the same.
So maybe in another thousand years the electorate/peasant people of the former USSR can realise their dreams.
If the current regime in place doesn't quash dreaming.
As a manufacturing base the Trade Sanctions don't affect their production. They do not have quality or efficacy in mind when their shit is on the draught table let alone on the market.
No fucker would buy their shite.
Last Russian item I purchased managed to grind 6kg of beef steak before catastrophically shitting itsel (it was burgers/spagbol day)
British Manufacturing is still world class.
Rooshian Shit has always been shit. (But Guilded Shit) ____________________ Disclaimer: The comments above may be predicted text and not necessarily the opinion of MCN. |

I wonder if EU citizens agree with the ever closer ties with China the EU seem to be pursuing? ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

...things have been running fairly smoothly.
So far, so good is the message we are getting.

BBC Radio Kent this morning were trying very hard, but everyone they spoke to seemed to be saying it was going OK.
Apparently, 200 trucks went through on Jan 1 and 2 were turned away, but they didn't know if that was because of incorrect paperwork, or lack of a negative COVID test on the part of the driver.
So we are out of the EU, but the sky hasn't fallen in and the world hasn't stopped turning.

Tell you what though guys, the VAT arrangements UK government have come up with are TOTAL clusterfuck.
Basically if you are buying for stuff from the EU valued at under £135, they expect the SELLER to register with HMRC (for a fee!) then add the VAT at source and pay it to the UK government.
Unsurprisingly to me, many of them have are now refusing to sell low value goods to the UK. Which is frankly, what I would do too. If i had a business, I certainly wouldn't pay the German government for the privelage of collecting tax on their behalf, never mind the admin nightmare it would entail.
I've also heard of a few cases of total misunderstanding where the EU company is adding the UK VAT to the local VAT instead of zero rating it. (So in Germany where VAT is 19%, goods that cost £10 +VAT would normally be sold at £11.90 locally, they should now be charged at £12 in the UK because we have 20% VAT but they are actually being sold at £14.28, charging VAT on the VAT).
It's easier for me to buy stuff from India than the EU now because I just have to go online when the goods hit the UK and pay the VAT and any applicable duty.
I'd imagine online sales platforms like ebay will take up the admin for this themselves but for direct sales of low value goods from the EU, you can probably forget it for the time being. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”

It seems that the European Parliament is not happy with the new China deal negotiated by the EU Commission. I find myself for once agreeing with Mr. Verhofstadt on something!
And no, I don't now want us back in the EU ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

The BBC was running a story a few days ago focussing on the absence of M&S Percy Pig sweets in NI at the moment, thanks to Brexit. |
