Popular Post CG1 Blue Posted January 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 7, 2021 42 minutes ago, tebee said: Debenhams closes online business in Ireland as 50 major UK retailers face EU tariffs https://www.itv.com/news/2021-01-07/debenhams-closes-online-business-in-ireland-as-50-major-uk-retailers-face-eu-tariffs Debenhams has been forced to close its online business in Ireland to avoid the cost of tariffs which are now required under the trade deal agreed between the UK and the EU. Debenhams is not alone, at least 50 major UK retailers, including Marks and Spencer and Tesco, are in the process of going through their products lines, to establish how many of them will be now subject to tariffs from the EU. Can I ask what you're hoping to achieve by digging up as many negative news stories as you can possibly find? Genuine question. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinny41 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 That’s why we left! EU punishes Ireland supply chains in bid to exert full Brexit pressure Due to the section of the agreement which refers to the rule of origin for items, businesses and exporters are stopping or reducing the delivery of products to Ireland. Despite Ireland being a member of the EU, rule of origin laws dictate any product must originate in the EU or UK to avoid receiving a full tariff. https://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/1380623/Brexit-news-latest-Ireland-food-uk-supply-chain-rule-of-origin-eu-news 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tebee Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 My point is we have basically knackered ourselves as place to do business from. It makes no sense to have a UK participant in the supply chain, because of the extra paperwork and customs duties. We are going to lose more jobs and tax revenues because of Brexit. With Brexit done, reality dawns that frictionless UK-EU trade is no more https://www.ft.com/content/08f180aa-59a5-4a7b-bb4f-393af0f7a570?shareType=nongift If you can't get past the paywall the author summarized it on Twitter 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This penny is now starting to drop. On a micro level, this means that some businesses will simply stop trading with the EU because it becomes too expensive — or move to split their supply chains to avoid having to do cross-Channel trade, shrinking their UK footprint in the process. Quote A company such as Aston Chemicals in Aylesbury, which has imported chemicals for tThe cosmetics industry for 30 years and distributed to the EU from the UK, sent its last load across the Channel on December 18. It will now serve its EU customers directly from Poland to avoid duplicating paperwork for compliance with the EU’s Reach chemical safety regulations, border delays, and tariffs risk from rules of origin requirements. Its UK warehouse staffing has shrunk by one-third as a result of the changes. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post vogie Posted January 8, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2021 12 hours ago, tebee said: I didn't change anything - I quoted the article as written The author stated: "Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey risked reigniting the politically charged debate over Brexit by predicting that the trade deal struck with the European Union could end up costing the U.K. economy the equivalent of more than 80 billion pounds ($109 billion)." So basically he is guessing and doesn't know, just the same as the rest of us, I put more faith in Mystic Meg predicting what will happen. He then goes on to say that in practice only time will tell, so it is just another attempt of scare tactics. "What happens in practice will depend on how much disruption Britain experiences in the next few weeks, and then how quickly the economy adjusts to the new trading arrangements, he said." The remainer media have been telling us all lies from day one and many remainers have swallowed those lies quicker than a Brown Trout taking a fishermans Mayfly. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
