The agreement that the UK made with the EU.

 

What this and other conditionality in the agreement mean is that only large consignments of the same stuff (uniform consignments) can be practically sent. So you can send a container of cheeses to one customer but not one cheese to 1,000 customers, as before.

 

The outcome is that only large producers will be able to export. All those specialised companies or small companies, such as those manufacturing specialised engineering parts, will have a lot of trouble and cost.

Engineering parts are less of an issue - because they're not animal products, so don't need a veterinary certificate.

They still have more paperwork, but it's one less piece than cheese or meat or fish...

Top tip 

 

GOVERNMENTS: Avoid embarrassing surprises later by attempting to get what you want into the text of treaties before agreeing and ratifying them.

I think you will find that all counties, not just the EU will want you to adhere to certain standards if you want to import foodstuffs into them. not only that they will want you to provide the paperwork to prove that you have adhered to those standards.

 

The problem we have now is the clinically clean Brexit we have that was demanded by the Brexiters.

 

We could just have agreed to continue to accept EU food standards  and EU oversight of those, but that wasn't good enough for the dogma of Brexit ideological  purity. Instead, we insisted  we wanted to set up our own food standards, overseen by own agency so that we could deviate from EU standards if we desired.

 

Well guess what, when you tell people your food might not be to the same standards as their own, they won't let you sell it there unless you can prove with certification that it is to their standard.

 

Another spectacular Brexit own goal.

 

Incidentally we are not reciprocating on this yet because until June there are no checks on food stuffs or anything else coming from the EU. It might be our brexit, but we didn't bother recruiting and training  the 50,000 new customs officers and agents that are needed to preform the requisite checks - nor do we have the agencies set up yet to provide the standards.

 

The EU, on the other hand did have everything ready.          

Including a Corvid vaccine......????

The EU makes the UK do the same as every other country in the world that isn't in the EU.

Is the EU creating hurdles for the UK?

Or the UK making hurdles for the UK. - After all it's England (and Wales) that voted for this <deleted>.

 

No it wasn't, it was the United Kingdom, all for one, one for all......????

Well, that'll teach 'em! Up the French! 

You really don't understand, do you? Let's add up the UK cheese market and the EU cheese market and determine who will win this little spat, shall we?

Does the EU produce Cheshire Cheese.....?  ????

If they're not then they soon will be plus a lot more besides.

 

Two can play at this game.

 

Target all major imports from the EU to the UK and ramp up the paperwork requirements and certification.

 

Can you still buy French cheeses in the UK?

 

Rules work both ways.
