Escobarp Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Deal agreed today with our biggest customer for next year that will on its own be equal to 10% of this years total sales across our whole company in the uk. That’s with a potential ratchet on the price for the deal if we end up on wto terms and associated tariffs or similar. Make of that what you will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t believe in the impending doomsday scenario many are predicting and I’m sure many more deals will follow. I’m still not sold on the needless amounts of effort needed to land deals similar to before. Out of interest has this grown again current deal or complete new business?

Existing customer so it’s organic growth but we got no new business from them in the last 12 months. Next year is the biggest order they’ve placed with us ever. But the specific part of the sector they are in is a big growth area. i was more surprised that they had placed the order now even with the caveat of a potential price rise which they are liable for if tarrifs arrive post 1/1.

Some ups and some downs but none of us know and it all depends what if any deal we get. Obviously there are experts on here who already know but us mere mortals can just live in hope and wait and see I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty sure we wanted much more than a Canada / Japan free Trade agreement Parking the fact that those deals have a lot of quotas I’m pretty sure that they don’t include Services which is obviously massive for us, particularly Financial Services So in reality we wanted a cross between a Switzerland / Norway style deal crossed with a Canada / Japan style deal. But the EU would never entertain allowing us to dominate European Financial Services without giving up other things (fish for a start, regulatory alignment another) It’s not the EU’s fault that they won’t let us have our cake and eat it, they said from the start, no A la Carte.

Not only that, we are ex members leaving the club who live right next door. Fucking swap roles and think about it. It is simple politically and economically so why anyone now thinks we are somehow going to come out of this is beyond me. John Redwood ffs? Bloody hell BD, thought you would have better ammo than that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bolty58 Posted December 15, 2020 Members Share Posted December 15, 2020 No surprise EU sycophants would react so to the John Redwood commentary. There will be a deal. We all know it. Whether this will be in the best interests of the UK will only become clear with the passing of time. I believe that there is a good chance that Mr. Redwood will be proved right.

Plus, Bolty’s application to the Britain First forum has been accepted and once he’s performed the initiation ceremonies he goes live on 1/1/21. I honestly thought he had more bottle, a frontiersman who has blazed a trail halfway around the world like that. I’ll miss his posts, stuck in the halcyon days of his youth as they may be. But, in the end, he’s climbed to the top of the screeching tree and done the biggest sulk of the lot and is taking his laced ball home with him. A shame. But if you can’t handle it, you can’t handle it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boby Brno Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 A view from the other side. Exporters based in the Czech Republic could be heavily impacted by a no-deal Brexit, according to the Minister for Industry and Trade Karel Havlíček. Speaking to Novinky, Havlíček warned of the damage the failure of the EU and the UK to get a trade deal could have on Czech companies, with the UK the fifth largest market for Czech exporters Notice the Czech Industry Minister says the EU and the U.K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
