Brexit Is Trade War On Own Selves

- I spoke to James O’Brien about the ludicrously expensive and disruptive #Brexit border checks and #foodsecurity
🚛 New report from National Audit Office shows that more than £4.7 billion of public money is to be wasted on post-Brexit border arrangements, with traders facing soaring additional costs and pettifogging bureaucracy.
🚛 Ministers promised to create the “world’s most effective border” by 2025 in order to smooth the flow of goods between the UK and the 🌎
🚛 But the core technology needed to deliver a digitally advanced border is facing “several major challenges”, said the report into the UK government’s 2025 Border Strategy published on Monday.
“In our view, the programme’s objectives and timescales are overly optimistic 🦄 and continue to underestimate the complexity of what is required,” it said.

As a Brit who lives in an EU country, I don't think most Brits (including remainers/rejoiners) really comprehend just how ridiculous it looks like from the outside.
It looks the same for almost half the UK population that actually thought Brexit through properly and wanted to remain European.
I also wonder if they realise how much British politics resembles US politics. Of course, the Americans always take everything up a notch or two but basically, the resemblance is clear.
Oh I do ... I never wanted to leave and now its making its really hard for me to escape .😢😢😢😢
@@AlexGys9British Politics on the Global Scale could hardly be more dissimilar to US Politics on the same Scale. It matters to Britons that we have left the European Union. It would matter not a short dot whatever International Organization ( Political, Economic, Hegemonic, Ideological .... ) the United States chose to leave to citizens of the United States of America.
I knew and I’m still embarrassed
It's a scandal really. People are sleepwalking through this disaster.
À scandal and an outrage. And that's a massive understatement. The people should be in the streets.
It was an act of treason .
When they promised there would be brexit bonuses they failed to mention that it wouldn't be the UK that would be getting any of them.
How come our gdp growth in Q1 was DOUBLE the EUs?

The UK's biggest salad grower saw the writing on the wall immediately after the referendum and commenced the move to Poland. Wise move, I was long impressed by their management.
Very poor choice in supermarkets. Why would any lorry driver want to come here. Disaster
Uk is not united anymore
Do not mention one. People unity comes always via big crisis. It is unnesseary to artificially create one.
England votes Tory: England imposed Brexit (the Welsh vote was tipped over by English blow-ins). England is the problem we don't need
Yes it is. The UK needs to wake up to the level of social media influence from Russia. It remains as intensive as it was in the lead up to the vote.
Yeah but its not divided in the way people thnk it is. Its divided between the hyper rich and everyone elce
does not mtter the colour of your skin, your sex, your religion, your nationality - if you are not hyper rich you are on the other team - DONT LET THEM DIVIDE YOU
Ahhh, Brexit. it's almost as if it was all deliberate....
100%
It was.
We are in a downward spiral - no one will shout stop or talk about it.
The fundamental problem with farming in the UK is there is not enough money in it for the Toff & Elites to exploit, the city of London that’s a different case.
Back to the good old Victorian England!! where rickets was rampant and where a Tory was a Tory and the proletariat could eat the leftover scraps from the wealth's table - if they were lucky, that is. Those were the days!! Welcome to brexit; sir!!
Well done Liz. Keep it up.
I'd be wary of eating any shellfish from British waters considering the amount of raw sewage being dumped into them.
You do a great job! Keep pushing the British politics!
but fails to answer any questions.
You’re doing a great job Liz. Well done and thank you 😊
Liz, I admire your courage to call a spade a spade. Food sovereignty is important (strategic even) but sadly for the UK, it is NOT the only problem to solve. Many Britons admit discreetly Brexit was a mistake but very few are DEMANDING this to be corrected. This slow-motion in reversing Brexit means that many businesses (Farming, Fishing, Finance, etc) will go under or move to the EU in an irreversible way.
Frenchman here. What do I care? Frankly in the EU, we do have problems but Brexit is not one of them but we were once friends with the UK and I lived and worked there so I like the UK and frankly, I don't understand why you don't fight harder to kick those SoBs out of power, why don't you DEMAND that present opposition parties (Labour?) are not clearer about the future course of the nation. Sorry for not minding my own business.
Anglophile German here, same feeling.......
The right wing media and the new protest laws act to keep people suppressed may be?
Starmer won’t take us back into the EU though … that’s the problem
Think of Brexit as a really horrible divorce where now one side (Turd Island in this case) realises they’ve made a terrible mistake. Why would the other party (EU) entertain the idea of partnering again? In 50 years maybe but certainly not now. There is zero point in Starmer trying to rejoin especially when Turd Island has lots of other problems to resolve. The best Turd Island can do now is align to the EU standards in the hope that rejoining if/when that happens will be easier.
@@lizwebstersbfbut also the apathy of the British . The French would not put up with 5% of the crap we all deal with !
Brexit mess
Its working.. leave people so confused that we can arbitrage the difference..Price are more transient.. so can make cash on artitrage.. ask mr Farage..
Keep fighting the fight Liz.
Liz... Have you, like myself, just understood that Sevington is only operational for ½ a day! Unbelievable!
In EU, many companies and their countries have implemented new IT systems to cope with the extremely high data volume. Initially, they also had problems with crashes. The true, however, mainly software system errors that were bridled. The time gain where EU companies have is now extremely high for everyone.
For the EU it was absolutely no proximity as a customs history GB. GB has totally failed in it is unanimous opinion in the EU!
@@w47wAny danger of you translating that word salad into something vaguely making sense?
@@jeangenie5807 The English language is not nearly as complex as Greek, Norwegian, Finnish or German. An Englishman who speaks these languages perfectly grew up bilingually as a child. When it comes to complex structures with extensive use of language, English speakers find it very difficult to understand what is involved.
For many things there are no precise definitions in English. It's extreme in German. For example, there are also complex paraphrases for one thing where just emphasising the word makes a different statement!
It's not without reason that German, like Mandarin or Japanese, is one of the most difficult languages.
My son speaks Mandarin, Japanese, German, Norwegian and English. He always says that translating something from one of these languages into English is a catastrophe if the statement is still somewhat appropriate.
So learn Norwegian or German once, then you can join in the conversation. But our experience is that English people are too lazy for that. That's why there are only a few bilingual English people in our teams.
@@w47w I simply asked for something about more understandable, not a diatribe or a 'oo aren't I clever knowing about lots of languages' response! The whole point about language is to make oneself understood by others, your commentdid not attain that goal. Also, you have fallen into the usual unwarranted insult about Brits not being bothered to learn other languages. For your information I have learnt French to exam level, did 2 years of evening classes to learn German out of curiosity and have always tried to learn some of the languages of countries being visited for holidays, such as Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Greek and I am about to return the language discs I borrowed from my local library for a trip this summer which will include the Czech Republic! However, despite my efforts most Europeans speak excellent English, and a number of other languages, so I don't always get the chance to practice what I have learnt. That's not my fault! They are just very clever.
@@jeangenie5807 When it comes to arogance, the English are in a different league as we have already experienced! English people live in Spain (the friend's place) for 10-20 years and are then offended that you don't converse with them in English. Of about 200 English people, hardly anyone spoke Spanish! The English called themselves expats and the Spanish called themselves migrants. Then they were offended!
When it comes to unjustified insults, elite university students in England are probably in the top league! During a quick visit to Elite Uni, they shot down a 19 year old because he wasn't studying at Elite Uni. Or rather, he doesn't need it because he can learn everything himself in a very short time. It came across as if he was stupid! He's the same guy as my late friend Patrick Flanagan. After a short conversation with the professor, he took a test. The university students completed the test in 40 seconds, Gates in 20 seconds and the 19 year old finished in 11 seconds!
The professor really wanted him and he refused. His wish was that we should help him build an association for people like him. You are our most important part of the strategy team.
None of our top specialists studied! They are all born self-taught and high sensation seekers, multi-talented! Compared to them, elite students are still lame ducks when it comes to learning and implementing.
Just type this into UA-cam: Farage EU insults. He represents the English as the synonym for arrogant, snooty Englishmen for EU citizens! 17 million citizens agreed with his statements for BREXIT regarding the EU.
So much for insults from the English. I could spend a few hours telling stories about what we experienced with English people in business and on vacation.
Learning languages with language discs was done 10-15 years ago!
Apparently it hasn't arrived in the UK yet like so many things. Vera F. Birkenbihl is the pioneer when it comes to languages and general learning. Your method is used today by every interactive learning platform. Was a very dear friend and extremely important mentor of ours. As mentioned above, she was also such a person! BRD schools have been using their systems for a long time, for example to promote collective thinking. Your foundation supports EU projects for school systems. Vera was also an instructor for the US Army in Germany for 8 years.
Her best and funniest book: Straw in the head!
GB politicians probably have greed on their minds to create BREXIT disaster!

To be fair, British farmers are not the only ones who had to cope with horrendous weather.
But Northern European farmers haven’t had Brexit.
Every outfit you wear looks you good.! I know, a little of the topic but still. 😊
It is true that olive oil prices are going up regardless of Brexit. Just this month (May, '24), it was in the news here in Japan that olive oil prices have been put up as much as 60%. This isn't a counter-argument but I write this to emphasise that James O'Brien acknowledges facts and that is something that the Brexiteers more often than not are unable to do.
Olive oil prices are increasing because crops have been damaged and it is a bit scarce since in Europe Olive oil is usually preferred ovezr sunflower or rapeseed for eating and many recipes.
Yes I agree Oliver, I live in France in the countryside, I am so respectful of French farming. I live in a mixed area, but there is a huge amount of arable farming. I go for bike rides and every inch is productive. As soon as one crop is harvested the next is in. Yes, the weather is better in a normal year, but it never stops here. No golf courses and leisure, productive Land. I believe France is pretty well self sufficient for food. This is believable. I griève at what has been done to british farming. Super quality land and farming skills which have been guillotiné.

@@frankoneill5675 only because Norway wouldn't accept us into the EFTA we'd need to gain their trust first but I'm sure with labour in government we will be moving closer towards going back into the EEA and Single market.
@@spottyty First of all, it isn't just because Norway won't let you in. Several members are reluctant to admit you, as the total population of the EFTA EEA signatories is about six million, Britain would dwarf them, apart from the English tendency to want to boss everybody about.
The fact is if people don't want you in, they don't want you in. Nothing to do with gaining their trust.
Secondly, the approval of all thirty signatories of the EEA would be required to reopen the agreement, something thought to be almost impossible to achieve. And there are several who might have preconditions before giving consent to Britian which the British might find very hard to accept.
Most importantly, the EEA Agreement is fragile, and if it is reopened to admit a new signatory, everything is up for renegotiation, and the EFTA members are afraid they may end up with a much worse deal if it reopened, than the pretty generous one they have at present.
Regarding labour, with or without a labour government, you will not be moving closer into the EEA and single market. The EU will not let the UK cherrypick its way back into the SM. They have made that clear, regardless of what Starmer says.
The only realistic way for the UK to enter the SM is through EU membership
Write to your mp. Protest. Join labour for Europe.

@1:00 "let imported food into the uk for 3 years to undercut us"-
thats why you need a hard brexiteer government and border checks.
The government makes no difference. SPS checks are not political, they are some of the most stringently applied customs checks by countries all over the world, primarily to protect their agricultural sector, but also the health of their populace. The EU countries with direct borders with the UK introduced them in January 2021, at the time of Brexit, when it was assumed the UK would have done the same
Liz Webster could not have worded this better (except the nice things that she says about Nigel Farage. Personally, I would prefer to talk politics with one of Liz's cows).

I don't want to nit-pick but the UK hasn't had food sovereignty for quite a while. Food sovereignty is a food system in which the people who produce, distribute, and consume food also control the mechanisms and policies of food production and distribution. It emphasizes local food economies and sustainable food availability. This type of system is getting scarce, in reality and globally the corporate food regime is dominant: in which corporations and market institutions control the global food system.
We had food sovereignty in the EU.
@@lizwebstersbf Not as an individual country, but as part of the EU. And not total sovereignty either. But more than the UK has now, that's very true.

Absolutely no interest in saving British farming from what they literally voted for. Any efforts toward mitigation needs to be prioritised towards industries who are not lying in the bed they made AND wanted. Boycott British food, let them go out of business, it's what they asked for.
There are limited resources post Brexit. Imagine being in an industry which wasn't for Brexit where your job is at risk, and seeing people agitating for the very people who put you in this position being given those resources. No, it's wrong.

Liz is always banging on on new deals bringing in food of lower standards. However she has no evidence that these deals are bringing in food of lower standards in fact they are arguably the same if not better.
The RSPCA confirmed this when they presented to the government.
The AHDB (The Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB) is a statutory levy board, funded by farmers, growers and others in the supply chain to help the industry succeed in a rapidly changing world) doesn't agree with her either and they have done research on NZ and AUS farming.
They have also modelled the two new deals and though they find there may be some impact, it is not large.
The problem with UK farming is there farming practice has not been in tune with market needs, and necessary efficiencies. This is due to the artificial subsidies and market protections that the EU employed. I e. Market barriers, giving farmers a false expectation of their performance.
NZ figured this out in the 1980s and worked through a new production plan that took 7 Years.
They are also taking a dim view of the lies being pushed by UK farmers, who are lost for some leadership to improve their processes, so they can be profitable. It's not easy of course but blaming everyone else doesn't work either.
Note NZ has been shipping frozen meat to the UK since 1892, so it's not like it's a new initiative.

I lived in the UK for 20 years and I used to buy the odd frozen NZ leg of lamb on special to keep in the freezer, but most of the time we were perfectly happy with British produce in terms of meat. I am not sure I ever bought Irish, but certain bought Scottish beef at a well deserved premium price.
However protectionism and subsidies always distort the market by charging the population, and sooner or later it becomes an issue, e.g. it is too expensive to maintain the subsidies, people want more price competition with societal change, and suddenly you find that your production is too expensive as you didn't figure in efficiencies for the last umpteen years as the market and practice moved on.

The problem in New Zealand was,that the the farmers farmed subsidies instead of the land.I was when the New Zealand government stopped subsidising the farming of marginal farm land, that the NZ farmer stated to realise, that they had to start working for a living. I agree with this NZ policy; marginal land should be framed and no incentives should be give to make farmer do so.
