All we can rely on is the majority of the population, and they need to be kept fully aware of the EU's (and our politicians') shenanigans.
I'm sure that the majority of Brits still want us out of the EU. They have seen their officious and petty behaviour (including the recent lorry driver's ham sandwich!) and these things are doing nothing to endear people in this country to them.
Keep up the good work, EU!

Kt really is that simple.
If we want to export to the EU we must comply with their rules, if we want to export to the USA we have to comply with their rules.That is the system the world works under.
If Countries wish to export to us they must comply with our rules.
It is going to take years to sort it all out, we are not even checking the paperwork from EU Imports yet, we do not start that until July.
We are starting from scratch, we will get there but we have no magic wand to wave.
Government have other things to do, like Covid for example.
I suppose that in my fervour I expect them to sort everything out immediately.
Just as long as there is no backsliding, I'll be happy.

We are out of the EU, end of.
We are a Third Country, so we cannot export POAO , without a Vet's Certificate.
Before Boris signed the deal.
Get over it,
We cannot do cabotage either, we knew this whrn Boris signed the deal.
Leaving was always going to hurt financially.
So what?
It is what we voted for.
It is a price worth paying.

Except for the cost; it is no more costly to fill one form in than another and this is why - as I'm sure you realise - over half of UK trade is with countries outside the EU.
Unless you can explain how our largest single trading partner is the USA; we trade there without difficulty and yet supposedly dealing with the EU - who we have a deal with now - is more allegedly expensive, why are we doing so much business with the USA?

I suspect that by far the majority of stories regarding alleged difficulties are in fact false one way or another - we've seen the media's lies in using old photo's for current supposed yet non-existent problems too often now.
Heck, when the worst they can come up with is some over-enthusiastic Dutch customs staff confiscating a trucker's pack-up because it contains a slice of cooked meat you know there's nothing worthwhile reporting.

I knew that the Frogs were peevish, but I thought the Cloggies were a bit more sensible.
I'm sure they've all forgotten about my father's generation helping them out seventy-odd years ago!

In principle, such unilateral remedial measures may include the imposition of tariffs or quotas or even the suspension of parts of the Agreement."
It is well known that the EU do exactly that and, in fact, have gone a step further in the past in that they have made financial incentives to attract businesses from the UK to other EU countries.
I wonder what - if anything! - we would do about that and to prevent such things happening again.
