Never heard of Joe Giddens/PA   For all we know this Joe Giddens could be just another Cheeky Girl.

 

Does this Joe Giddens have any statistics to report on how  all the G7  nations imports and exports have preformed since 2018?

I know who's word most of us would believe rather than yours.  especially when the Governments ONS tells us that it's costing us a lot of money too.

The article itself comes from The FT
UK trade volumes suffer record five-year decline

The ONS reported that the volume of imports fell 7.4 per cent compared with 2022 and was down 3.8 per cent compared with 2018.

I'm having a wild guess that she, and The ONS might have an understanding of the subject matter.

The farmers are not happy in the EU judging by the recent tyre burning in Brussels.

That prat Mogg :

 

2016: "The Brexit opportunity is through leaving the customs union. And that means we have to come out of the EU Single Market"

 

2024: "Anything that makes trade more difficult, makes countries poorer"

 

i'm very much in danger of typing asterisks again.

That prat has done rather well for himself over the who mess though, and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if he's made a Lord at the end of Parliament.

 

As always, this represented no benefit for us, but big gains by those orchestrating it.

It is still easy for the UK to trade with the EU post Brexit. Too much whinging still happening.

[ads36]

would you describe the Farmers protests as "Whinging" ?

 

Liz Webster - founder of 'Save British Farming' (leading/representing the protests) :

 

"They negotiated trade deals which literally see us slaughtered - They're the worst trade deals in the world."

 

“We need a radical change of policy and an urgent exit from these appalling trade deals which will decimate British food.”
