I wonder how their audit is going re the covid funds ?

Not in Crawley Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Well on personal note, Brexit just keeps giving. First time back to Canterbury this evening to drop the littlest one off at mums and to keep the M20 clear they have diverted all freight down the A249 and onto the M2 for Manston. Bit of an arse, as that's the cut through route for me, more problematic is that both roads are just duel carriageways, at the best of times it can be busy, but with a load of lorries in the slow lane you've reduced one of the main routes across East Kent into a single lane. If there are any breakdowns normally its chaos as there are so few slip roads. Also, loads of lorries in the laybys which I've not seen before and a temporary breakdown depot opposite the Kent Showground. All looks a bit shonky.

It won't be long before everyone gets used to the new systems. Funny though that the UK has allowed a 6 month period of grace for incoming vehicles before the checks are ratcheted up.

Yeah it’s the Dutch one and not the GW Pharma one that’s licensed in the UK. Thought that was the one being referred to which confused me. Hope it gets sorted. It’s a strange situation with the Dutch one but with kids suffering like that Alfie you always have to side with the parents imo Edit: GW Pharma licensed in UK for clarity Edited January 11, 2021 by MancWanderer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mounts Kipper Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 (edited) I see lots of problems for the Irish importing from U.K. suppliers on products made outside of U.K. these are being charged duty into U.K. and the buyer in Ireland has to pay duty again, the EU & U.K. under pressure from the likes of M&S to look at this again, many companies in U.K. have temporarily stopped exporting to Ireland. Be interesting to see how this gets resolved. Edited January 12, 2021 by Mounts Kipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to see how this gets resolved. You'd think the logical thing would be to miss the UK out, and go from the continent straight to Ireland. The Irish/EU have had 4 years to sort this out, so zero sympathy for them really. We've just discovered in the last few days, that we have to pay 4% duty now on some products that we didn't used to pay any duty on. Not a major issue really, we'll just pass it on. The irritating thing is that if we got them direct from China where they're actually made, we wouldn't pay any duty at all, but we are forced by the manufacturer to buy from their European hub, so not really any way around it Edited January 12, 2021 by Sweep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ani Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 So problems at Irish border, tariffs being charged, issues in financial services and supplies of drugs.

They're not too bad most of the time in winter, but if an accident happens you can be in a jam for hours. Summer is the ballache, time it wrong and you get caught up in the London going to Seaside for the day mob there and back (which is when most of the accidents happen) then there is the caravans going to France at the start of school holidays or even before all this, operation Stack could get the M20 all snarled up before you can even get off it.
