All our import consignments on 2 trailers chosen for inspection today so thats 3 x maximum CUC @£145 1 CUC @ £29 plus 2 unloading charges which we still dont know how they will be applied but max. £732.03 per unaccompanied trailer.............

UK remains too afraid of standing down (constricting flow) on the inbound hosepipe....
but is now charging you for it, regardless

So this shambles of a govt are charging for Brexit checks but are waving freight through to keep freight moving.

All they had to do was dynamically align to EU standards, but instead decided to ensure thousands of businesses go bust and more people to fall into destitution.

Neil Alcock Hywel Williams AS/MP Jacob Rees-Mogg Trade marks. Even the IPO shows incompetence on another level. Simple changes not made correctly. Etc. I have had to stave off a legal challenge from EU today because of it.

Neil Alcock Hywel Williams AS/MP Jacob Rees-Mogg Nightmare both ways. Also for plant breeders who have to pay full EU protection costs plus UK if they want it vastly increasing costs whilst we miss out on the EU SME fund for subsidised IP... not seeing anything much on the benefits list!

Big changes for plant trade 🌱 Import checks now at Border Control Posts, not inland 🛃 bringing costs & risks 💸. Our members have been speaking up with our media support, examples below

OMG The Defra UK minister Mark Spencer just said that “we’ve limited the amount of charges that can apply to five per lorry load”...it's NOT. It's five (mad £145) per CHED (ie product declaration). There can be *multiple* on a lorry. Here's EG from Cold Chain Federation /1

Reminder this thread valid, if UK had got its Brexit fully 'done' on 1/1/21 as agreed. After 5 delays it looks like UK at long last getting there? But I know the new needed 'controls' in 1 day's time will be charged for, but not applied. UKG does not want widespread empty shelves

I've been saying for 8 years they either have not got a clue what they are Brexit doing...or (as I once thought) I must be missing something...they surely cannot be this clueless of the coming destruction regardless of the final - any FTA- Brexit 'deal'?
I was right first time.😬
