Re: The People Versus Parliament.
Hi
When we leave the EU we go to WTO Rules, and they are rules, we cannot do what we want, neither can the EU.
Present systems are set up for container trade, weeks at sea, plenty of time to do the paperwork, pay Tariffs etc.
Any that need to be checked do not cause a problem, containers can be stored on site at the port of arrival and checked.
This is very different with the Channel Ports, which are RoRo
There is currently no need to check as we are in the Single Market
Such systems simply do not exist at the present time and we will also need hundreds more staff.
Nothing is impossible given the time and the money.
We simply do not have the time.
WTO Rules require a Border and checks in the absence of a FTA.
