It makes no difference. It’s still done manually and the systems are still inputted with dates and badge codes.
I work in imports so I know it’s not just as simple as a computer saying no on the 1st.
There will be literally tons of imports in bonded warehouses which are not cleared yet and they won’t suddenly become liable for duty after midnight.

I think the brexit supporters are going to melt away from this topic, and the blame / pivot has started in the press so they will pick those lines up after.

course not. they swallowed the cummings bs about sovereignty and "taking back control" hook, line and sinker… no time to read the small print/details or have any other independent/logical thoughts though. gullible twats
Voted to remain, but completely disagree with this remain(ers) = good, leave(rs) = bad rhetoric, which is exhibited throughout politics, particularly from the left. I’ve been massively impacted by the fallout of this, but it was a far from ideal/utopian ‘partnership’ and from what I’ve read, seems like we’ve got a pretty decent deal. The fact that a few idiots (myself included) may end up paying a few quid on importing clothes is hardly a significant part of this process.

The deal is worse than what we had when we were in the EU. Tell me what's better? Not even looking at the fact that we have spent more on "getting Brexit done" than we gave to the EU

yup, ordered a sink from germany the other day and UK shipping wasn't an option. fortunately someone I know over there was able to forward it on.

that is a fair comment and i am fully aware i am being deliberately provocative. there are very valid arguments on both sides for remaining/leaving. however, it is shocking to observe the number of people who voted leave but can't actually put forward a valid reason for doing so (e.g rickrude). the majority of the public have been completely spun by right wing propaganda, which is extremely unfortunate
of course, but also a lot with very valid arguments.
