And not delaying them will seriously harm consumers. It’s a lose-lose situation (re)created by an irresponsible political decision.
This is basically a variation on a centuries old debate on various barriers to food imports. This was solved, or rather partly mitigated and partly externalized by having a continent spanning single market. Since that is now gone, consumers or producers, or rather consumers and producers, will have to pay the price for that.
Would that be all the farmers who voted for brexit? What a shame.
Ah, the Benefits of Brexit…they just keep rolling in.
We are SO blessed!
>The government has raised concern that the extra checks on imported goods would worsen inflation and push up prices.
It does make you wonder why the government is in favour of Brexit, if implementing the Brexit deal the government agreed to in order to Get Brexit Done, requires these checks.
I heard we were having a special trading relationship with The Common Wealth?
Without checks, your government has more funding for the NHS.
I propose to lift checks until you reach the promised 350 million a week.
