So government delaying checks on EU imports for a 4th time.
Sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) checks have been operational in all EU border countries including France, Belgium and Ireland since the Brexit withdrawal agreement was implemented on 1 January 2021.
Will it ever happen at all? No change in you're on EU exporter to UK, happy days for them. Meanwhile UK exporters buried in red tape and trade collapsing...

It's like this government actually thought that the EU would continue to treat the UK as full members and haven't put full effort into sorting import/export checks.

Brexit: Boris Johnson suggests fourth delay to import checks after warning over trade ‘collapse’
Boris Johnson has all but confirmed that Brexit import controls on goods from Europe due to take effect in July will be delayed for a fourth time. Experts have warned of a “collapse” in trade if the checks are implemented on 1 July at a time of fast-rising prices and falling consumer confidence.
The prime minister appeared to suggest that he believes the checks can be put off indefinitely until long-promised technological solutions are found. While the EU was able to implement checks on UK exports entering the 27-bloc immediately when Brexit came into effect in January last year,
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-import-checks-boris-johnson-b2062633.html
It just about sums up the whole Brexit clusterf****. The EU introduced their import controls days 1, whilst a year and a half later, we are still hoping a technology will 'come along', presumably the same one the Brexiteers on this thread have been waiting for the last 6 years in order to 'Get Brexit Done'

Maybe the Tory slogan should have been "Lets get UK exporters done". Brexit isn't working we're screwing over our own and giving our competitors a few ride.

UK prepares law to give ministers power to tear up N Ireland trade deal
The UK government is preparing legislation that will give ministers sweeping powers to tear up the post-Brexit deal governing trade in Northern Ireland, risking a fresh confrontation with Brussels. Whitehall insiders said the Johnson administration was developing the plans partly in anticipation of a new constitutional crisis if the mainly protestant Unionist parties — all of which have rejected the so-called Northern Ireland Protocol — refuse to re-enter the region’s power-sharing executive after the May 5 Northern Ireland Assembly elections.
The move is expected to spark anger in Brussels and EU capitals. Last autumn the EU signalled it could suspend its post-Brexit trade deal with the UK if London reneged on its commitments under the protocol.

Looks like Johnson negotiated such a 'good deal' that the only way out of it is to rip up the Brexit agreement and go full out trade war with the EU

I guess a trade war will mean 40% tariffs for UK exports and waive it all through in the other direction with no checks. With the highest inflation in the G7 and lowest growth over the next year we will need it

As soon as the minor issues of the NI border and Gibraltar are resolved the 21 month extension to membership, on worse terms than present, can be signed and the rejoicing can begin.
And with that first successful piece of negotiation, nearly 2 years after the vote, we will have the EU right where we want them
Yet, here we are, four years later, and the 'minor issues of the NI border, and Gibraltar are far from resolved, even though we are out.

A word cloud for Brexit. I wonder how the quitters feel knowing that many Indians and Chinese will be coming here now.

It's become abundantly clear even to those with the most limited understanding of the situation, that there never was an implementable 'Brexit Good Deal'. It was obvious to anyone with a modicum of understanding that the choice was always some sort of membership of the single market or the complete 'no deal' scenario and anything in between would simply be an unimplementable fudge
And guess what ? Johnson's 'Oven ready deal' has proven to be completely unimplementable and Johnson is now preparing to tear up the Northern Ireland Protocol and risk going full 'no deal' trade war with the EU. And all this before he's even been able to implement the new Import controls to 'take back control', although the EU implemented their own import controls from day one, 18 months ago
Johnson preparing to ‘fix’ Northern Ireland Brexit deal
Boris Johnson is preparing a “fix” to set aside some of the Northern Ireland Brexit arrangements in a high-risk move that could provoke a row with the EU and lead to further accusations that the UK is breaching international law. But the move risks further accusations that, while the UK is free to legislate whatever domestics laws it choses, proposed changes to the Northern Ireland protocol may not be compliant with the international treaty signed with the EU.

The only problem being that he is having to change British law in order to break International law
If only someone could have seen this coming

Yet, as my post two above shows, the NI minister disagrees strongly.
