Supply Chains after No Deal
Just seen Newsnight. They talk about various Lead Time issues and other routine logistics aspects as though it's all man in the Moon stuff. What do they want for their money, what have they been thinking about for the last 2 years.

We have to expect not to be the wusser generation and to see this through, for the future of our country and our people. Short term stuff, never mind. Get the community spirit going.

Re: Supply Chains after No Deal
Even with contingency plans being worked on, its hard to imagine a scenario where there won't be significant disruption if we leave without a deal.

Re: Supply Chains after No Deal
Cheers Smudge, but at some stage you are going to have to get your head around that no one has tried to do what it looks like we are going to do.
You can quote as many Brexiteer myths at me as you like, but an overnight change to pretty much everything we do is going to cause disruption. How much or for how long all depends on the planning and contingency plans in place.

Re: Supply Chains after No Deal
The disruption will only be caused if the likes of Spain and France revert to type and cause a fuss over airspace ( though very unlikely ) Sure its gonna be slower clearing goods , but a temp system will be in place so ensure fresh produce doesn’t perish . Container deliveries from non Eu actually clear U.K. customs the exact same time as EU goods so Armageddon is unlikely as much as some of the more hysterical remainers would prefer we ended up in a version of Dante’s hell

Re: Supply Chains after No Deal
The whole thing has been ******** from the outset but the negativity of some of those wishing to remain in Europe will always be at the forefront of my mind.
We have an elected body of wastrels doing exactly the same thing when they should be carrying out the will of the people that voted.
It's no good banging on about 'too young to vote' 'didn't vote' 'wrong result'. It's happened, the result was called, move forward, yesterday can never be changed it's called history.
If a high % of current incumbents keep their seat at the next general election then the electorate deserve everything they get.

Re: Supply Chains after No Deal
I am, but I'm not very impressed with the older generation on Brexit.
Such wisdom and experience in so many useful ways, but that is clashing really badly with their complete inflexibility on Brexit.
Leaving is fine (well, it isn't, but it is what was voted for) but leaving with a "No Deal"? Nope

Re: Supply Chains after No Deal
I understand your point, Lancaster but I do believe opponents to Brexit are dragging their heels and want much disruption so they can gloat.
What baffles me is that I'm used to seeing is busineses with not just marketing and development plans but also contingency ones (once known as disaster plans). Indeed some insurers won't bother with you if you don't have these. Instead of developing a series of "what if" scenarios they just hide behind "we can't do anything until we know what's going to happen".

Re: Supply Chains after No Deal
Who wants to gloat?
Not me, I've been clear from Day One that I want to avoid economic damage above all else as that will really hurt us.
One of the reasons you think I'm a fair poster is that I've proved over time I'm a fair poster. I've struggled to stay fair at times on this subject because I'm arguing with people who are ignoring everything and anything that doesn't suit their narrative. We are in a world of potential trouble here, and refusal to accept even the possibility of trouble is not helping.
I agree that every business is now full on "No Deal" planning to minimise the effects, but that is because its not "Project Fear"
An acknowledgement on here from the more obdurate about that would be a start I feel!

They are undoubtedly a good thing and I would support them. Its such a shame though that they are needed. More the pity when we are sending I think this year 13 Billion overseas in foreign aid. That is another programme I would support but selectively not fixed like Cameron did. It should be used in disaster cases and war zones.

Re: Supply Chains after No Deal
Perhaps businesses spent the last two years waiting for the announcement that the easiest deal in history had been signed off. Or waiting for the German car industry to cave and give us everything we want?

I have a question for you. In all this debate about the EU and all throughout the first and now second phases of so called Project Fear I have never heard the case being stated for the EU. What is it? In addition what will the EU have morphed into in 10 years. I dread to think. Of course you kniw that I want sovereignty for the UK so am against a European Superstate run by unelected and in this case buffoons and corrupt ones at that like Junker.

Re: Supply Chains after No Deal
There are two types of people who think 'No Deal' is a good thing - the extremely rich and the extremely stupid.
If you don't know which you are take a look in your wallet.

Right at the start of all this I watched a Newsnight - I've long since given up caring.
They were all bickering about, well, anything and nothing, like they did for the next 2 years.
An American woman asked, What exactly are you arguing? You have to make decisions to argue about. At the moment you are arguing over possibilities that don't even exist yet.
This is still happening...and Corbyn is the worst one for it, especially when you consider he refused to discuss actually finding a good solution. Instead choosing to argue about what shouldn't happen if a solution isn't found.
And for that reason, I'm Out. I literally couldn't give a toss anymore.
If it effects me, I'll find a way to deal with it. Shocking I know.

The EU will change over time no doubt, as will the UK. It will change to meet the demands of its members. Whatever it does will affect us whether we are in or out because of history and geographical location. I'm more comfortable with that than most.

Re: Supply Chains after No Deal
Dyson? You mean the buy that paid 108 million in tax in the UK last year. I am mentioning him now. You will note that he has moved some of his operation to Singapore. Singapore, a place I know well in an area I know well. It is situated beautifully between the sub continent, SE Asia nd China. That where most of the worlds population is and where most of the economic growth is. Why would he not want a presence there, particulaly as he has manufactured for a long time in Malaysia? I would. In fact I do most of my business in that region. Its an area that the UK can increase trade with. We have some real advantages. One being that many many of the populations speak English and all te business communities do.Lancasterclaret wrote:Note that he used to be mentioned in the same breath as James Dyson.

By the way I notice you didn't tell me why we should remain in the EU? I am all for a common market with Europe It makes sense but the EU doesnt. I am for immigration tailored to the needs of our country, be skilled on none skilled. The EU apperas to have little regard for what is best for its people, onward with the failed experiment and more of it, thats the most important thing to these Eurocrats And they are beset with woes right now. A lot of it is recession or heading that way. But never mind on with the experiment.

At least now you’re admitting the minimum wage is part of the problem - that’s progress imo.

Rock and a hard place if ever there was one...
What about the complete lack of support by other parties for Brexit, they're getting some of the blame for this going down to the wire.
It's mainly the Tories complete incompetence mind, but they're not alone in messing this up.

Re: Supply Chains after No Deal
I take it that the first line of your post won't be on your leaflet next time you're up for re-election ! I can see the headlines now, " Maverick Labour Councillor wants UK to be " Run by Europe ", " Doesn't trust electorate " !!IanMcL wrote:I want to be run by Europe. 27 other countries ensure nothing bad happens.
A country enslaved by Tories will produce only bad outcomes.
A prime Minister who thinks it is clever to take us to the wire, to try and win a vote, should be tried for treason, along with her predecessor, although he could claim incompetence.
Are you planning to join the proposed breakaway from Labour, or stay and, in the words of Hugh Gaitskell , " Fight, fight & fight again to save the party we love ", from the grip on the party currently held by the " Hard left " and the " Trots " ??
