Hard Brexit - food, fuel, drug shortages

The M20 to be used as a lorry park to buffer delays through the new Border Customs posts.

Have we heard any more of the emergency plans yet?

I haven't seen job adverts for the new Customs Officers and the new Immigration Police. I wonder if the ration books and ID cards are printed?

Doomsday hard Brexit is what we are heading for. So they are correctly drawing up plans when there is a supply shock.

So what happens when our buffer runs out?

Be a hell of a lot of angry EU food producers that's for certain. The UK is a huge market for them.
 
so lets hope the UK government can decide what it wants to do and strike a deal.

So far the government is arguing among itself.

Murdoch and his supporters want Gove as next PM. The only possible obstacle to his plan is the UK electorate, which doesn't.

Britain would be hit with shortages of medicine, fuel and food within a fortnight if the UK tries to leave the European Union without a deal, according to a Doomsday Brexit scenario drawn up by senior civil servants for David Davis.

Whitehall has begun contingency planning for the port of Dover to collapse “on day one” if Britain crashes out of the EU, leading to critical shortages of supplies.

This will be disasterous for the economy and people - how many deaths do you want on your hands? What will you do if there is no food in the shops? With our just in time system of manufacturing any supply shock will lead to shortages.

Like the Milennium Bug, the consequences of not having a deal are so dreadful that it needs lots of serious people to put lots of serious work into finding and developing solutions.

Like the Milennium Bug, if all the work is successfully done, over a period of ten or twenty years, ignorant people will think, and say, that there was never a problem and it was all a fuss about nothing.

Since the UK hasn't decided what it wants to do yet, serious business is taking the precaution of setting up shadow offices outside the UK so they can continue to function. You will recall that Pig-boy Cameron took the precaution of getting another job.

Quitters like Buffoon are not serious people, and rely on waffle and bumbling in the hope that somebody cleverer than them will find a solution, build, test, agree and implement it. That hasn't happened yet.

In most cases, nobody knows what the arrangements will be, because the UK hasn't been able to decide what it wants.

Probably we will end up with one of the four available options.

Quitters have never said which one they want, so nobody can do more than guess which one to try and prepare for.

The UK Parliament has a duty and the power to accept or reject the Brexit Omnishambles. Thank the Lords they will not be prevented from performing that duty.

Project Fear rumbles on.
Total non-event; the report was produced by civil servants, who are Remainers to a man.

Norway and Switzerland have a debt to GDP ratio of about a third of the UK.
And unlike the UK, both countries also have massive national savings funds.

They are also tied to the EU in a way that Brexiteers would hate.

So either you are the one who has a 'silly blinkered view', or you are ignorant of the relevant facts!

please explain why you think that there is a connection between the UK cancelling all our trading and regulatory agreements with the 27, and a major war.

Please explain why you think that the UK resigning from our trading and regulatory agreements with the 27 will have no effect on our trading with those nations

Please explain why you think that the UK resigning from the trading and regulatory agreements that the EU has with the world's other major nations will have no effect on our trading with all those other nations

Are you one of those people who think that resigning from your local golf club has no effect on your ability to play golf there?
 
Please stop falsifying quotes. As warned before.
