To tip alway read and read again before posting..The firm employs about 65 full-time staff in Cambridgeshire and three in the Netherlands.
TOP TIP: Always read your own links boyo.
Brexiteers said the idea was to improve wages for the 'indigenous' people in the UK by leaving the EU...
How come the same lot put some of the blame regarding rising unemployment in certain occupations on UK government policies to raise the minimum wage levels?
You mean this bit before he spent into the millions opening an EU (Dutch) subsidiary....
".....after the referendum, "over a period of three or four years" exports to the EU "saw a massive decline" from about 70% of the company's sales to about 30%.
As the UK's exit from the EU approached, Moss says he and his colleagues "weren't particularly worried" after being "promised frictionless trade".
"We thought that we could just carry on trading, but it went from bad to worse....."
Yep read it. Pity you didn't dummy.
Clearly you don't.
I'm sure you're just as thrilled as every other Farragist turkey brexiteer that has inflicted them upon our shores.
Dumb shmucks.

I corrected that for you.
Those that sat back and did nothing may not be as successful as this man.
He didn't just sit back and moan, he dealt with a problem. And it looks as if he dealt with it well and is now thriving.
Avoidable. Unnecessary. Inflicted upon the UK by traitors and lackwits.
Solved by - moving back into the EU. Who saw that coming...
Turkey shmucks.
You mean this bit...
"...Hanson would like "free movement of produce from mainland Europe to the UK as it used to be".
"There's a lot of hidden costs and delays and potential quality issues that [consumers] are having to suffer but don't really realise," he says.
"It is a significant cost that is stomached by the consumer for bureaucracy that nobody can really see or understand...."
Thanks for the heads up bodd. How's that hole in your foot?

Stop blaming the Turks, if you persist we wont be getting our hair cut.
People with no constructive arguments usually turn to insults.
I attempted to find a figure for how much we'd have paid the EU in membership fees over the last ten years but have saved. Unfortunately most reports are politically loaded, so authors conflate this with other perceived (sometimes imaginary) losses and the fact that some of the money paid to the EU did come back here (only some though).
Plus we had to pay some stupid amount of billions to leave as a one-off leaving fee, for reasons that made little sense and probably part of the punishment beating dealt out to us by the establishment for voting wrong.
However, I'm sure the UK will have saved lots of money over the last 10 years. I just don't know how much. If anyone can find reliable figures that haven't been mangled to make a political point one way or the other then please post them.

Interesting article. Looks like we previously paid a disproportionate share, they now want to spend even more than before we left, so they're going to have massive battles between them over who pays how much now that Britain isn't donating vast amounts.
Glad we're out. Many long for the good old days, but they aren't coming back whether we remain out or re-join. Times are now much harder across the EU and UK. If we re-joined tomorrow then the 1990s wouldn't return.

Brexit is costing the UK about £100 billion per year. It’s not a secret.
According to the World Bank, in the period 2008-2023, EU GDP grew by 13.5% (from $16.37 trillion to $18.59 trillion) while U.S. GDP rose by 87% (from $14.77 to $27.72 trillion). The UK’s GDP increased by 15.4%. In 2023, EU GDP was 67% of U.S. GDP — down from 110% in 2008.
