Nobody seems to have commented on my posts which are about the logistics problems we will all face.
Remember the Beast from the East? Supermarket shelves were empty for weeks after.
Remember KFC having to close many branches when they changed supplier?
We are now so reliant on just in time that even a small wobble causes havoc.
This is nothing compared to what will happen if we leave the customs union.
The French will do all they can to cause havoc at the ports.
Anyone who has driven out of Gibraltar into Spain will know what I mean. Just 1 bloke checking every single car!
Very valid point "Fizzy" about "the chain of supply".
We buy in car parts - obviously German/French parts will be more expensive and be slower getting here.
But... We are leaning - now - all Japanese and Korean parts come thru Hamburg - they are bought in Euros by shipping agents then sold to us.
As we are such a small consumer - there will be no special treatment for the UK.
I know this forum is not about politics.
However you voted - in or out.
I personally now wish we have never been asked.
THREAD LOCKED....
