Those Brexit dividends continue to pay off.

My family business is now buying more goods from UK suppliers rather than from Belgium or France.

It works both ways,

Isolated examples are worse than useless.

You need to look at overall trade figures over a decent length of time

The example you've just given is of a reduction in cross border trade.

Daniel Lambert, who supplies M&S, Waitrose and 300 independent retailers, to set up in France after £150,000 hole in revenue.

A British wine wholesaler who last year criticised Brexit as the biggest threat to his business in 30 years has decided to leave the UK after post-Brexit paperwork made a £150,000 hole in revenue.

Just read the article in the Guardian. What a sh!tshow.  Someone should get Rees-Mogg on to say why it's such a success story.

Worse than useless? A major wholesaler supplying over 300 independent retailers is an example - not an isolated example - of individuals, companies, and the public suffering from the total disaster that is Brexit. Jeez, man, add up all these "isolated examples". A monumental disaster from start to fini...oh wait, it isn't even finished.

I bet the Guardian spends a great deal of time looking for such cases.

Well, having journalists doing actual research certainly beats media outlets that just regurgitate Press Releases from, for example, No 10 Press Office.

Yes, but I know that the UK producers have increased production to compensate for people abandoning European suppliers.

Surely a good thing.

Not if UK producers are relatively less efficient and could be using the same capital and people to produce something else more efficiently and sell that to Belgium. Everyone wins. 

Fairly basic stuff here.

Would this be the Spain which has just introduced a whole load of new laws on people arriving from the UK?

It's hard to see exactly what we have truly gained in leaving the EU.

Any ideas?

Blue passports

Yay

You'll be waiting quite a while I think.

The full impact of this idiocy on the NHS will be very detrimental. Losing/finding it harder to recruit skilled staff to the fact that almost all medical equipment and supplies are manufactured in France, Germany and Italy and will become much more expensive and the future is far from rosy.

This from page 1 of this thread back in September 2016.

I’ll need to look into that as I’m going back to Spain in September.

Been three times this year with no problems whatsoever.

You've got me worried!!

Think I read somewhere that visitors will be required to provide evidence they have funds of £85 per day for each day of their stay.

As to the veracity of the info I dont know.
