NANOJAMBO Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 (edited) Guido is fighting back for the battle weary bexiters : Remainers have spent weeks now telling us the UK’s HGV driver shortage was caused by Brexit. For a group so keen on calling 52% of the population thick, they’ve been impervious to facts. Guido’s been reporting for a while now that some countries on the continent have been even worse hit by the Covid-caused supply chain issues, and now there’s photographic evidence to prove it. From the heart of Brussels, Twitter user James Holland shows us that shops in the heart of EU-capital Brussels have also been struck, with near-empty shelves. Good luck blaming Brexit for this one… https://order-order.com/2021/10/01/new-brussels-shop-shelves-empty-despiteeu/ It's a pic of ONE shop that appears to have run out of cheese - caused by strking Carrefour workers.

What advantages has it given us over what we would have experienced had we stayed in the EU? If the advantages are coming soon, how soon and what will they be?

The biggest risk we have at the moment is that the expanded ferry capacity we put in between Ireland and France is already being taken up and needs to be expanded further. I travelled from Dublin to Newry and back yesterday, a trip I've made hundreds of times. I have never seen as many commercial vehicles on the road. We've also seen extra strain on our segment of the E1 European route, because of extra commercial traffic coming from the continent and running between Rosslare and Belfast. Think what it will be like when Ireland is the EU goods transit corridor for the supply route to an independent Scotland, member of the EU! Apologies in advance for this, Ulysses.

If the EU do, surely that's for them to decide too, a border is generally bi-directional but I'm unclear why it has to be that way. I do agree that there has to be a border between NI and the EU but avoiding conflict appears to have made that hard to achieve in reality.
