Tommie,it wont become a smugglers paradise,because the EU wont let it,they will say if you want to leave you have to have customs controls between the UK and EU. If you look at the efforts the EU have gone to,to prevent tariff evading bike smuggling,this is normal bikes,not e-bikes...originally...

None of what you say is agreed,it has been suggested by May and Co,but it hasnt been put to parliament and more importantly it hasnt been agreed with the EU...they havent offered visa free travel,the expats in Europe do not yet know their medical situation and freedom of movement elsewhere in...

Thats a degree from the University of the Bloody Obvious,but reality must sink in at some point. KudosDave

The Sky press review last night was very interesting...Carol Malone (a staunch Brexiter) v Stiq Abel (a staunch remainer). Carol is of the 'we won ,you lost,lets leave now' brigade but she was admitting that leaving was proving more complex than she imagined,she blamed the lack of negotiation...

Sterling has crashed and it did so quickly.....Gove's promises are about as trustworthy as the £350 million on the side of the red bus....I am very busy with EU customers because of the strength of the Euro v £....I bet the businesses in Ireland near the border are not doing so well??? It was...

I don't understand what the government intend on the Irish border,it seems to me they have sketchy ideas that are being put forward for consultation. They have already admitted that without a hard border immigrants will be free to move from Ireland into Northern Ireland and thus into the UK,are...

Woosh....you buy from China,you know the extent of cheap loans and subsidized exports out of China,some of my suppliers work on nil profit relying on the rebates for profit. Brexit is not suddenly going to make our government,whatever colour,incentivise industry,we havent the cash to do it...

Ok,I have the background of what you and millions of northerners want to achieve....a balance in the wealth sharing in the UK,if you reread your own post that is what comes across and really one of the reasons why so many northerners voted Brexit. I can respect that but Brexit wasnt the right...

Over the weekend Fox and Hammond agreed to a truce and agreed that they would have a transition arrangement lasting 2 years,they wrote an open letter in the Times,this morning Davis enlarged on this arrangement as the ambitious UK-EU customs union,I think Fox thought he could start doing free...

'Perfectly sensible solutions'....this customs deal is the UK demanding that the EU let us have 'cake and eat it,with a cherry on top'...if you read some of my recent postings you will realise why it won't work. The only way the EU will consider this deal is if we agree to maintain the current...

I live 10 miles from Dover...the French are past masters of closing Calais which results in the M20 becoming a lorry park all the way to London. The government were meant to build operation stack by now but that's gone quiet,probably didn't want to spend the money. Our border customs are...

Marlinleg....we have some special deals on the KTM bike range....please look on kudoscycles.com. The 50/70 mile range would need a heavy 20Ah battery....take ranges quoted by manufacturers with care....a good rule of thumb is 3 miles per Ah....most of the popular 10Ah batteries are good for...

The news tonight also thought it impossible that the EU would agree to a temporary transitional customs union exclusively for the UK. We are a very arrogant yet naive country,the days that other countries would jump through hoops just because we are named Great Britain are long gone. Even the...

Do you remember when Soros bet against the £ and caused a currency crash,I think it was Lamont who put up rates to 17% to try to maintain the £,it didnt work and he had to let it float,Soros made a fortune. The point is that once the BoE starts to increase rates to stabilise the £,the market...
