Hello Brexit, my old friend

After five delays, the UK is due to finally bring in import controls on goods enetering the UK from the end of January 2024.

This will be axactly four years since economic Brexit, and such controls could and should have been in place from day one.

But the UK wasn't ready, and through last year the Government said such controls with hbad effect on inflation.

So, all systems go for the end of the month?

There is a deafening silence from the Government on what the checks will be, what systems will be sued, if at all, and so importers have no idea, and have to gamble do they plan for the changes or not, each time they plan for changes that are scrapped, it costs money.

If Brexit was about taking back control, then Brexit has been a failure thus far as it has either been too difficult or expensive to implement that control so fraudulently won.
