Why EU Suppliers Will Not Want To Supply The UK Because Of The New Border Delays

- Another week of #government chaos and incompetence as #rishisunak continues to insist his plan is working. #minister Paul Maynard, is being investigated for misuse of public funds, a Czech billionaire, Daniel Kretinsky, is said to be close to buying #Royal Mail, a collapse in applications from foreign students wanting to study in the UK, raw #sewage being tipped into Lake Windemere by United Utilities whose recently retired CEO was paid £30 million over 12 years. In Brixham the water is contaminated and unfit to drink.
It was claimed that JCB, the family business of #borisjohnson friend and benefactor Anthony Bamford, who is said to be in hiding and sought by HMRC to whom it is thought he owes £500 million, continued to sell equipment to #russia long after sanctions were imposed.
An article in the Daily Telegraph read "The Tory Party has dug its own grave. Nothing will save it now."
According to a Twitter feed from 'Ciaràn, The Euro Courier' (@eurovanman) he explains in detail the difficulty in importing goods into the UK now that post #brexit controls have been implemented.
Random vehicles are sent to the Sevington Border Facility, 22 miles from #dover for inspection where they can wait for many hours before their loads are inspected. Ciaràn waited 5 hours two weeks ago and six hours this week.
He describes the facility as having an atmosphere of intimidation which he believes is deliberate. He found the staff unfriendly. His van was taken into a locked shed, he was told to wait in a corner whilst two inspectors arrived and without saying a word, to him inspected the contents of his van.
Foreign divers, treated this way and deliberately delayed indefinitely will simply refuse to come to the UK adding to our already serious #food supply problems.
According to the Department for Transport website, facilities at Sevington include "toilets, hand washing and water for all drivers parked on site" Thousands of foreign and UK drivers will be expected to wait at Sevington indefinitely with nothing more than a cold tap providing water which may well be unfit to drink.
Drivers will not accept being treated rudely and long waiting times. They will refuse to come to the UK adding to our #food supply problems.
Sevington, the most important facility in the UK for goods arriving from the EU is managed by a #french company Sodexco!
Brexiteers hate reality. Mr Lambert is unafraid to tell us the truth. Carry on, sir!
but its not the truth, its just anti brexit propaganda and complete lies.

Are you hinting at a whole new series of Carry On Films featuring Michael and Brexit related themes ?
Carry On Pumping Out The Sewage ?
Ooo err I've come over all funny like - it's made me quite giddy since paddling in that stream.
If so I would like to audition for Barbara Windsor. I have got the moobs for it.
If the UK was in the EU the UK would have been fined a hell of a lot more than 13 million for all that sewage dumping.
And conseqently the water companies would not do it....
@@ulfosterberg9116 Bingo!!!
Why do you think polluting big businesses wanted us out.
Brexit disaster
If as an EU lorry driver you were guaranteed to get nothing but hold ups, hassle and intimidation by coming to the UK why would you continue to do so if you could still make a living by going somewhere else instead? Surely this is going to lead to more shortages and price rises for us lucky Brits. Oh, the benefits of Brexit keep on coming...
To be fair it's cheaper than membership at an S and M club and involves far more suffering.
Just sayin.
I feel angry about Sunak and his wealth as an early retired sick person living only on my private pension of £400 a month. A minimum Pip and no other benefits.
And so you should. The Tories disown society and even have the gall to talk about "the politics of envy". So much for social justice and a fair society. Good luck and best wishes is the only thing I can add, along with voting these wazzocks out.
Since 1979 I've lived and struggled under this neoliberal nightmare and now it is apparent that all of Thatcher's pigeons are coming home to roost. When I railed against the selling off of our utilities I was called stupid for not buying shares and likewise I found myself as a lone voice warning of the stupidity of Brexit I was told, 'don't talk the country down ". I'm not a clever man but even I could see it was all going to end in tears.
Agree 100%. It was all for short term gain. And now that there's little left to flog-off (apart from thee and me) all they can do is increase the level of lies and spin to make us all think everything's hunky-dory and everyone else is to blame - everyone and anyone except the incompetent public school sociopaths who led us all down this cul-de-sac at the behest of the USA.
It turned out as predicted, you are in fact a very clever man
I really despair of what our country has become. 14 years of tory rule and private companies ruining our country. All in the name of profit for shareholders.
Vulture capitalism, as Grace Blakeley says in her latest work.
Brexit is the UK's best comedy export since Monty Python. 🤣
😂😂😂😂
You're really getting desperate now as real economic data is showing how the UK is performing much much better than the EU.
Only the UK's growth rate is higher but its base point on which that rate was calculated was much lower than the EU's. Compared to the average 2015 rates for GBP, EUR and USD. GBP today is down 15% versus EUR, 18% versus USD and EUR is down less than 3% versus USD. Who is doing better? Particularly, a country that imports so much of its food.
@@maxharbig1167 the UK is doing better. Even the IMF is forecasting that the UK will grow more than any other country than USA and Canada.
The frustration in your voice mirrors the feelings of millions of us.
When thatcher started selling everything off my dad predicted that it wouldn't end well. How right he was ,now 90 he says I told you so.
He also predicted what would happen if we left the E U.
And still people are not seeing it, or maybe they are but not admitting they were wrong.
Too busy blaming boat people. Look over there!!
Give him a big hug ! 🙏👍✊😃
We are certainly in a terrible mess of a situation and it’s going to take many years to unravel, certainly more than one term in government.
If I would have a hauling compagny in the Netherlands, I woulden't let my drivers go to the UK and be treated like criminals waiting for hours and hours. Ther is planty of work in the EU.
I am a continental European and my cousin is a HGV driver and drives goods all over Europe. But his company now refuses to deliver goods to or from the UK. It's not worth the effort. Why waste time and money when you can have other shipments within the EU. British companies will have to do it themselves.
So true’ I used to Drive from the uk 🇬🇧 to Europe most weeks’ I’m now retired’ but would hate to try and do it now’ I live in Kent and see the queues of trucks on the M20
most evenings on our local tv 📺 those queues can be 20 miles long’ how does any company make that pay.
Feel sorry for the drivers’
The Tories and Brexit have f:::ked this country for many years to come’ 😩
Apparently they love the trip to Ireland, lovely warm ship 🚢 for 20 hours, hot shower, sleep, breakfast and then start their 9 hours driving fresh. Do a few local runs in Ireland before taking another load back to the continent, repeating the same comfortable 20 hour ferry trip, 💤 🥑 🍽️ 🚿 🚛
Unfortunately for them most shipments are trailer drops. But some get a lucky full run there and back. Well paid too.
I see them on the road often with trailers with Irish plates then I'll notice the truck pulling the trailer is left hand drive.
@@beastylad7418 I live in Germany and for the last 46 years have driven to S.Devon twice a year and it´s terrible to witness.Going again at the end of June and now the worry is shyte in the tap water. :(
Things are getting worse and worse. Quality of life in the UK is not what it was before Brexit and unless people start protesting, nothing will change, and the population will continue to have problems.
Use your vote at the next general election, make a difference.
@@paulwilson7234 Of course voting is essential, but very few politicians are talking about the damages of Brexit that are increasing in number by the day, so the more protests against the situation, the better. We cannot continue to turn a blind eye to it
Not one iota of what you say Michael should come as a surprise to anyone.
British waters both coastal and inland used to be strictly protected by European blue flag standards.
An article on France 24 national radio was advising French visitors not to go to seaside resorts or enter any waterways due to the severe risk of sewage pollution causing serious illness.. The cases of "Victorian Era" foul water poisoning in England have been widely reported in all French newspapers.
Windermere should be renamed 'Windermerde'!!
In Germany too.

😂😂 That's funny that is😂😂
This is very informative. I had no idea this was going on. What a shambolic mess. No one raises this on Question Time.
Question time, along with other BBC programmes, is running scared of the tory government and its own tory head. As such, anything negative, particularly with reference to brexit, is brushed over.
Third Country? Third world country more like.
We're skipping third and going straight to fourth.
As always Micheal you continue to provide sane and rational commentary on so many toxic issues. Thank you.
Thank you 😊
But this sort of behaviour is exactly what Tory and Brexit voters wanted and deliberately voted for - madness!!!
@penshaw2 Not quite They had enjoyed living here or there but didn't want 'others 'in UK especially certain religions .Thus began Brexit Pea Brain Mindset .May they rot in hell .I'm English but live overseas in the EU
BTW I must still pay tax to down and out UK ..yet have no right to vote there ..Madness but what is there to vote for ? Only the independents ..
In some respects England is not very civilised.
It has been a vertiginous decline and, as often happens, things that were previously absolutely unacceptable quickly become normalised and accepted.
Was it ever?
England is the last feudal state in Europe.
Since brexshite england is a disgrace, what was a decent country has fallen,,,shambolic shambles,,,
@@amcc5887 It has been made so much worse, though, by the previous years of austerity.
What a mess Michael as you said you couldn't make it up thankfully you are reminding people what shit we're in
I'm 64 now,I think I am a bit old to leave UK now.Pity really
England it is time to get out of Ireland,
Please this is not the place for that Michael is a good man and that's irrelevant on this thread and I'm Irish
You always manage to get to the heart of the matter Michael, full of sense and empathy when faced with the madness of what the Tories have done to this country, to all of us.
Yes, the so-called Conservative government has been an unmitigated disaster for the UK. But naively believing that a Labour government would do any better merely confirms that you confuse feeling with thinking. Wake up and recognise that the political class in this country doesn't give a fig for the electorate.
Thank you Charles 😊
Brexit is so impressive nobody in our government or the media can even mention the word and actually even my friends can't talk about it.
Thanks, Michael, for your sane, articulate and well researched videos on the truth of what is happening to Britain as a result of the disastrous Brexit. Please keep on informing us by making these videos...they are sustaining! Ps, as a footnote, I love your mini pen portraits: "cocky and self-assured woman" 😂!
Thank you Elaine 😊
Speaking as a German, your narrative of this persons experience going through the controls reminded me very much of the controls we had ( before 1989) crossing from BRD to DDR ( East Germany), not so much food controls because they needed the food and always arranged a swift entry, but the normal vehicle and people controls. It really was a massive exercise of intimidation by design and by implementation, big empty unfriendly sheds, noisy steel shutters that locked you in, officious looking inspectors who obviously hated people from the west. any excuse to keep you waiting and ruin your days schedule. We West Germans hated crossing that border. Many West German truckers didn`t want to so an East German trucking firm called `Deutrans` was created with loyal to the cause East German drivers, they all had wives and children at home, so they had to keep there noses clean!!.
Great that you mention this. I went to the 'museum/memorial' at Marienborn (?) last week and went on the tour. The small room that you were detained in(alone) while the security services checked your passport and papers and for any links in the family that may be 'suspicious', and the possible strip search if they suspected anything, as well as dismantling your car if they suspected any contraband. 5 years in prison if they found anything significantly 'valuable'. I had the light hearted thought that if Germany needed to raise a few Euros they could sell the old sheds to the UK as they were well built (back in the day).
In short: the Uk is deep in the Shit! 🤣
I’ve been wondering what that special place in hell looks like, for those who promoted Brexit, without even a sketch of a plan how to carry it out safely.
Donald Tusk.
A lot of time has passed since Brexit. Our elected and civil servants did everything possible to sabotage it. We are now moving on with a dysfunctional government and greedy companies taking advantage of the confusion gouging out massive profits.
Time they called out mogg and farage for all the brexit promises that never materialized .....but at least we took back control of our borders lol.
@@pip1723time the remoaners, civil servants and incumbent government took responsibility for screwing up Brexit and not drawing up a sustainable investment plan for the future. It appears that our control of Immigration is still a joke.
This s Thatcher’s Britain we have sold everything that makes money.
Whilst at junior school, does anyone here remember assemblies every Friday morning, free bottles of milk for the morning break and free school meals plus a pudding with pink custard.? What do you get now? Lies, Greed and Corruption from the ones you believe in.
How can the Royal Post Office be sold whilst it's under inquiry?
It is a bit scary how some brexit-favourable posters refuse to see what is happening and counter with "It is worse in the EU". One is telling us that 1 out 10 person in the EU is in poverty/joblessness etc. Figures are higher in the UK, and the EU comprises very different countries: Greece or Moldova are poor. Denmark is not. The idea of the EU is that the rich ones should help their poorer neighbours. Nothing wrong with that, this is also what the UK should do for its poorer areas (except that the current government are not doing it).
And they are all individual sovereign countries. Not one big blob as ignorantly supposed by the Brexiteers.
Its much worse sadly. Not only truck drivers are decifing never to come back due to being treted poorly. I am a Dutch guy whu used to love to travel to the UK each year before 2016 for our family holidays. Last time I went was 2017 and have never been feeling so cold shouldered all the time when people heard my thick Dutch accent and even harrassed at times. It all of a sudden became an unwelcoming place.
I remember the UK as a fun place to visit. But since the Brexit racists were let loose by the UK government its not a friendly place anymore. Havent been back since. Being stuck for hours at a parking lot being treated like a criminal is a surefire way for drivers to decide to never come back.
Sadly, post-2016, all the British knuckle-dragging racists suddenly though it was ok for them to come out from under their rocks. And the UK governments have helped to hold-up the rocks.
Sorry about that Patrick. Be rest assured that you are more than perfectly welcome as far as I'm concerned. Ignore the racist bigots. Shameful behaviour on their part
@@JJ-zg1hh thank you, and yes I am fully aware that these people I mentioned are very much the exception. And I know we have our fair share of narrowminded dickheads in our country too. Its just that I have never felt unwelcome there before up untill that moment. Which was new to me. But I still love the UK. I just would have liked to have it panned out differently. Dont recognise it as a place of happy holidays anymore. Watching the news about the UK closely it makes me sad. And fearful of the future as we have worthless politicians here in Europe too who take inspiration in Brexit like ideas. Cheers from Amsterdam
This whole disaster was foreseeable. We are the outcasts of Europe. But, but we have a trade deal with North Macedonia and Outer Mongolia. Are we not extremely lucky people?
@@thetruth9210 Support to Ukraine; USA 75 billion$ EU 92 billion$. And the UK, well, they are way down the list. And lucrative trade deals negotiated by the UK since their exit from to EU? Absolutely non!! It would seem that you have your head stuck up the Daily Wails rectum.
@@thetruth9210 Totally delusional. More trade deals worth 0.01 pc of GDP. Do you understand? Numbers? UK copied the EU Canada deal and it is still not done. USA deal promised by Johnson? Re Ukraine? A propaganda by Johnson, the great statesman. They depend on the USA! We can't even equip and house our own forces.
@@thetruth9210But these new trade deals either are rolled over from our EU membership or greatly favour the other country for instance watch Australian presenters laughing at our trade deal with them.
@@user-pf2vg2mp8r we Aussies pissed ourselves laughing at the trade deal. The UK was so DESPERATE to do a trade deal withy Oz they bent over and then asked "Is that far enough?" And the UK farmers have been royally shafted by it. UK is a great trading nation? Not even close.
Still, you guys will soon get a taste for our hormone-stuffed beef. Nothing like ingesting some HGPs (Hormonal growth promotants).
Seen on the back of a artic-truck on Nantes péage "Nous n'allons plus au Royaume-Uni" . The truckers have had enough. Crack on Michael
BUT but the UK is Global Britain, a mistake surely…. 😣
My country, the UK, has gone "down the plughole". Why have the Tory's done this ? What was the point ?
Self serving greed I'm afraid.
Greed.
To keep the xenophobes, bigots and racists in their own party happy no matter what damage was done to the lives of the people, their livelihoods, the organisations within which they worked or the reputation of the country. Brexit was merely the first step, the Rwanda agreement a continuation and leaving the Council of Europe may come next.
Greed and the associated CORRUPTION...
Thank you Michael, I cannot believe what these Drivers have to go through, shame we can't put the Brexiteers through a similar Experiences.
These real brexit handicaps you inform the public of is so important, as brexiteers prefer to look the other way and ignore the unfolding disaster, and also annoyingly these issues are rarely reported through the pro brexit mainstream media,they don't want to hear about the damage they have inflicted on everyone, great work Michael 👍.
Thanks Martin 😊
Whenever some idiotic government minister or 'Brexiteer' starts banging on about the imagined benefits of Brexit, they need to be confronted by stark realities such as the ones you're reporting on. You do a fantastic job, sir.
Thanks Steve 😊

great video as always Michael......the CORRUPTION in the UK is staggering

Always watch your videos Michael a friend from Ireland
That is good to know - thank you 😊
Typical of Brexit Britain, we have done the minimum possible facilitates whilst employing maximum hostility because it is easy to win votes by looking tough on the law abiding whilst ignoring the fact that this is a critical part of Britain's trade.
This is capitaism at it worst
but hay IT'S THE TORY WAY.
Corrupt crony capitalism
Good afternoon Michael. I love your channel, I love your simple honesty it’s so refreshing. It saddens me to know that no matter how hard Labour, our government in waiting work it’s going to take so long to try to dig the British people out of this catastrophe we find ourselves facing. On the day of the referendum all it took was one X to change our lives for the worse, now we need a new government who will takes years of work to bring us back to normality. While in the meantime Sunak has 5 or 6 months to do more unthinkable damage.
Thank you Sharon 😊
@@MichaelLambert1Hi Michael. Don't pay any attention to the naysayers, trolls and negativity. You are correct in all your weekly uploads.
You are right. Still it doesn't matter as it will get worse and worse for the rest of your and my lifes. With that said. I do admire you.
If the quality of fruit and vegetables continues to decline and they simultaneously become more expensive, this has consequences for the nation's health. Poorer people won't be able to afford them and will be forced to buy cheaper but less healthy alternatives. As people's health declines, it puts more pressure on a health service which is already in a deplorable state. It also affects productivity as sick people cannot work as efficiently or even at all. As you say, the whole situation is madness.
You're joining up the dots. Rishi Sunak and his pals don't shop like the rest of us and they certainly don't use public services like the NHS so why would they care how well they're run?
@@Damomasts That's certainly true. I'd also argue that the reduction in consumer choice also affects non-essential high-end food imports too - so Brexit is also affecting wealthier middle class people who are traditionally more likely to support the Tories.
@martinstark7229 I still struggle to get my head around the fact that so many people voted for this. Complete madness.
What choice do we have?. Why do we accept our role as consumers rather than producers of politics. Just look at the language our politicians use to entice us to shop at their store - these days boasting about being 'delivery boys' from whom we takeaway whatever has aleady been paid for without really fibding out who and what has been 'cooked' in the kitchens - too willing to take on trust what has been smothered under a fancifully named saucy gunge.
You won.
Get over it.

The Tories to quote Oscar Wilde "Know the price of everything and the value of nothing"
Watching the Post Office Enquiry is a reflection of not only how badly the company was run but how little care the Conservative government took being the owner of a public asset or how public/tax payer money was wasted.
Maybe it will be a good thing if a few universities go broke. The inflated fees, boosted admin & advertising at vast expense, paid their VC's or similar huge salaries.
It is absolutely staggering and heartbreaking too, on so many levels. Thank you Michael, I always enjoy your sagacious take.
Brexit makes us all poorer year by year
Try to stay focused on that. Once you move to hours and minutes there is no even brief piece of mind to be had.
@@CheeseLovingGuy Well try thinking of it like compound interest each year it adds more debt on more debt

May I compliment you Michael for your consistent video output. You lay out the unvarnished truth and hopefully help to improve the collective consciousness of your country.
it's not that they're foreign. British private owners would screw us up just as much. It's that the government does not believe in regulating industry. Or any kind of business. At all, that I can see.
Who brought us Brexit for personal reasons only???? Boris Johnson and he is now "oven ready" 😅
I don’t know why I am watching these videos. But I am starting to be very depressed.

Utilities companies dumping sewage in the sea and making large profits isn't a bug, it's a feature of Brexit. That was stage one; exiting the ECHR will mean less pesky rules to stop the already wealthy exploiting the unwashed masses.

I like that word of yours, 'freedumb' - it sums up the Stupids (ie Brexiteers) so well.

The systems of support upon which we all rely have been dismantled bit by bit and bled bone dry.
Sinister times.
I am a lorry driver I have experienced the chaos myself last week. Many of my continental friends are already refusing to come here if they have the choice and its not just border checks. Im not having a pop at the staff at Ashfords inland border they are doing their best but I had to wait for many many hours. I suspect they were just told by someone "these are the new rules....... Crack on its your problem now".
Just came back from France via Le Shuttle. U.K. border check on my campervan was done by employees of a French outsourcing company.
Makes you sick doesn't it, and I'm not talking about drinking the water!
We seem happy to sell off Royal Mail to foreign interests yet there is outrage over the proposed sale of the Daily Telegraph which is a national treasure.
I wonder if there is an explanation for this. 🤔

‘Pollution is a physical manifestation of corruption’ - Monbiot
Dear Michael Lambert, thanks for another not so cheerful report on messy UK. To add a nail to the coffin, here is a short one. I left Scotland in 1969, moving to Europe. Wanting to vote at the GE, I must register at my last address in UK. Register office in Glasgow tells me that I have to provide documents such as an electricity bill dating back 55 years proving that I lived there. The fact that I was born in UK, British passport holder, former tax payer is insufficient. In the mean time, on 9th June, I shall vote on local issues here in the town I live in on the Continent, still as a British national. 😃😊 Have a nice week-end
Now why should you vote in a country that you left in 1969? That is beyond really.....
@@roelkomduur8073 That is not the point the law being as it is, I am entitle to vote on GE. Is it different in Holland, do you lose your citizenship if away from your home country for many years?
@@dprout3392 "Holland" ? The country is called the Netherlands. And it is a point, your life is somewhere else.
It's an oligarchy with the overlay of the UK class system. What could go wrong?
So much for TAKING BACK CONTROL!
If you can't take control of your own feases. What can you control. Since suez uk have known it is a poodle. No need to pretend. Obviously a couple of generations that is grown up on "boys own" instead of real history didn't get it and voted for putins brexit.
"Welcome to the Brexit"
And give me your ham sandwich now.
Yes you are very welcome 😅
Waiting on a border, how strange. This sounds like a story from the 19th century.. When you travel in Europe you don't even know if you just crossed a border if you are not attentive. To build such a border can't be a good idea for you. I mean you are already an island, and than such a border. I don't know. This can't be good for business.
Yet another excellent analysis of this tory brexshit nightmare!
Keep up your great work Michael 👏👏👏
Well said,however I still see ters some trools on here,,,🙄
Thanks Andrew 😊
I have been to Scotland multiple times for vacation, enjoyed it a lot and my wife and I wanted to make a holiday trip through England and Wales. Then came Covid, then came Brexit. Why should I travel to the UK? I need a passport (about 80 Euros to pay for it) and travel to a country that put it‘s shit into lakes, rivers and the sea. That is disgusting. I do know many other people who think the same way. UK is from the vacation list for at least ten years.
And I don't blame you. But, let's think positive here...Perhaps it should be on the England travel glossies.
"Europe and our Lakes. We don't need to give a shit? Now, f-off, you're not welcome here johnny foreigner..."
Or, "England. Our Lakes give a shit, so you don't have to..."

02:25 - But, of course, we need to pay these CEOs well. After all, it takes a lot of courage and conviction to abuse the country!
I remember Harold MacMillan lamenting the idiocy of "Selling orf the femly silver." in the House when Thatcher did her big sell-off. How right he was. Quite aside from all the Brexit horrors.

Are you
Thank you TOR 😊
Hello Michael, Once again thank you for your Saturday video and throughly agree with your views/comments. Thames Water are in the process of site investigations for the construction of the planned (new) very large 150 billion litre reservoir to the south west of Abingdon. The area is bounded by Steventon, Drayton, SW Abingdon, Marcham, West Hanney and the main Great Western main railway line between Grove and Steventon. This reservoir will occupy part of the existing and the proposed extension of the floodplain area south of Marcham which is prone to flooding during periods of heavy rain making the properties already at risk even more vulnerable to major flood damage, the flood waters containing sewage (a TW speciality).
Personally I have had flooding on two occasions this year in my road and in my house in 2007. Best wishes from Abingdon.
for years now michael you finally have been proven right but the sad fact is with the economy in the shape it is now in the uk brexit mental illness has destroyed britain
It is like the bluff was finally called on all the Brexit bravado and boasting and exceptionalism - and the Tories have been found seriously wanting in the delivery! Britain's Brexit turned out to be all mouth and no trousers. Can't take its self inflicted sanctions and turn them into the glorious Brexit uplands. And who called that bluff? Britons themselves, who still think they know how it's done and they cannot do wrong and, s u r e l y, the rest of the world will hasten to give Briton its well deserved sunny uplands, starting with the EU. Mental illness of delusion, isolation and superiority/entitlement thinking engrained in large parts of the population, is a good description.
😂😂😂😂
You're really getting desperate now as real economic data is showing how the UK is performing much much better than the EU.
The customs facilities remind me of the border checks at the facilities of the former GDR.
That‘s the way you treat your (alleged) enemies at your border.
I visited the former border at Marienborn in Germany last week. strip search and potentially dismantling your vehicle if any 'smuggling was SUSPECTED certainly held thi,ngs up for a while (or permanently in some cases).
Hi Michael, I challenged one your Brexiteers on this channel who had called you out, and he responded back to me saying that they if I thought the EU would be around in 10 years then I am deluded. Strange that they watch your channel just to grandstand Brexit and it’s benefit’s 😂
I used to think that sort were the usual deluded lot. But with so much they should be able to see now, my only conclusion is that it's just a bunch of 14-year old boys who find it funny to carry on that way and there is little point in countering anything they are on.
😂😂😂😂
You're really getting desperate now as real economic data is showing how the UK is performing much much better than the EU.
Out means out, enjoy.
Sovereignty.

Dutch exporters of flowers and plants fear that the new border checks in the UK will not carried out fast enough, due to lack of staff and parking spots. Flowers and plants need cooling and this is not always available at the places where checks are carried out. This shortage of cooling will negatively affects the quality of Dutch flowers and plants in UK stores and consumer homes. The Dutch flower and plants exporters expect a price increase of 3% to 5%.
The shameful few lining their own pockets in every sector whilst the majority suffer.

My mate is a proud brexiteer they could take the shirt off his back and he'd say it's wonderful and that's what he voted for .....

Lord Bamford ought to be subjected to the same treatment as the rest of us, if you or i dont pay our tv licence were summoned to court over it, how does he get away with that lot?
Don't suck up to people that bought their peerage. He is called Bamford. There is nothing noble about this undemocratic institution.
I told all my own colleagues in transport industry this is what would happen. Called an unpatriotic trator for my troubles. Thank you Michael.
Yes the logistics industry used to be very Brexity, like the farming and fishing community. Didn't quite work out. Most drivers are not British in any case, even if they are employed by British companies. But the largest amount of lorries driving to bring stuff to Britain, are EU based logistics companies. And they are now being 'inconvenienced' and will likely refuse the Britain run, unless there is no other option.
