You may forget that we are open for business , Europe is open for business ... something we have been doing just great since roman days however the UNELECTED UNACCOUNTABLE EU is the 3rd person in this marriage and are the ones causing all the friction !!!!!
Yes trade has been going on between Britain and the European mainland since the Bronze Age but not always frictionless as evidenced by the old smugglers tunnel under my house

We have had frictionless trade with Europe for many years now but that is going to end.

I unlike you am concerned that British businesses may go under because a whole lot of people voted for something without fully understanding the full ramifications of what they were voting for. You certainly don’t

Re: The Dover Proposal.

Well that’s it then and for crying out loud why oh why didn’t you mention this earlier ? The whole of the country has been divided , the majority voted to leave obviously not realising the implications and there is little old you an expert only just removing your head from your backside today to inform me I’m wrong ...
Well what shall we do now we realise you are the saviour ? Shall we cancel brexit ? Do you have Theresa on speedial ? Or shall we simply carry on and label you as a fool unable to see beyond tomorrow and so selfish your only concern is your short term loss ?
Let’s have a referendum on your thoughts ... oh we’ve already done that !

Judd /Bristol

Are the container docks mostly used from Ireland or USA? Liverpool is a huge container base but I think it’s mostly American/Canadian freight whilst the south and east coast uk deals with European

One thing is for sure, our politicians won't be losing money.
Why must we leave.

Hypothetically, would you still say the same if leaving would put the UK into a Venezuela type recession?

Yes good for international container trade but not the RoRo traffic that comes through Dover that relies on fast shipping times. Bristol is probably not an economical router from Europe but if disruption st the Channel ports is severe it may we’ll become so

Swimfeeders is an Establishment lackey who used to work for the State but left on bad terms.

He likes to embellish the importance of jobsworth civil servants like he used to be and try to convince us we couldnt manage without more interfering from those of his ilk.

Truth is that we need LESS interfering from politicians , jobsworth civil servants and self serving Gravy Train riding Europhiles.
