A thank you to Brexiteers.

Turns out that relying on cheap imported labour willing to put up with shitty conditions has its limits. Maybe they could start by offering better wages.

That's just crazy talk.

Next you'll be suggesting British employers should train their own employees rather than rely on imported workers trained in their countries of origin.

‘But where will the cheap imported labour work ?’

It's because tariff free trade between members of an economic union & single market established through a standardised system of laws and underpinned by threshold pricing controls of the CAP, is a long, long way removed from the global free-trade that ideological zealots like Truss envisage.

Brexit lorry park 'ruins night sky' for Kent residents

People living near a customs site in Kent say they have 'lost our night sky' to light pollution.

The 66-acre Sevington inland border facility, close to the M20, operates through the night, providing customs checks for hauliers entering or leaving the UK by ferry at Dover or Hoylhead, or by Eurotunnel from Folkestone.

We all know if there is any public health staffing shortage the UK government will be running schemes to attract foreign care works, nurses etc to the UK.

Where do they stand on Brexit, though?

nowhere within a ten mile radius at night, clearly

Or, given the light pollution, not so clearly

Phototaxic. Movement influenced by light....like moths and a fuck ton of other bugs. It'll have as big an impact as the change in the number of roadkill will do on carrion

It is over a five year period so maybe a lot of it has already happened with the re-location of banks & their funds that are no longer subject to UK tax.

Quite an interesting bit at the end of that article:

Ireland’s cumulative services exports from 2016 to 2019 were £126bn higher than projections based on the trends up to 2016. Aston’s professors argue that this is because Ireland has won UK business after Brexit. Irish economists disagree.

“Ireland’s services exports boom has clearly mainly been due to ICT exports (Facebook, Google etc),” said Conall Mac Coille, chief economist at Ireland’s largest stockbroker Davy, referring to the information, communications and technology sector. “These companies were already operating in Ireland prior to the referendum and have seen explosive growth since then.”

Ireland, Europe’s hidden tax haven.
