I guess it should all move to the Conservative party thread now anyway. It's no longer Brexit, it's just British politics.0

In other news, sent some papers to Spain yesterday and had to fill out a customs declaration at the post office. #progress0

I can't see how that issue resolved without a new agreement.0 -

Our local post office is open at least 364 days a year till 6pm. Used to open the same hours as the shop (till 10pm 7 days a week), but I think the volume in the pandemic got a bit much in the evenings so he cut it back.Dorset_Boy said:

I now finish every call pointing out that if they switch suppliers to an EU one, all of this goes away...kingstongraham said:Northern Ireland then?
We're also just now reaching the point where people are getting bills for Duty for moving goods within the UK. Which is fun...We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence

The EU have pushed a maximum gain for themselves and Ireland and failed to realise that the GFA is a truce. The truce has now been broken as surprise surprise a fair number of Northern Irelands residents have a view that they should have unrestricted trade with the UK.kingstongraham said:What's going on in Northern Ireland then?

NI can't have it both ways outside of the single market; either it's unrestricted with the EU or it's unrestricted with the UK.john80 said:

If the UK wants to rejoin the single market then great, they can have it both ways.
You can attribute blame whichever way you want, but you can't get beyond that logic.

In my case it's pure ignorance. I don't understand the issues at all, they aren't affecting me obviosuly in any way and I'm not hearing much, if anything, about it on news reports.rick_chasey said:Honest question, why are people so relaxed about the NI problem?

Fair enough. I was 10 when they signed the GFA, but I've worked in a building they bombed out for a few years and there were a quite a few reminders of it there, which brings it home a bit.Pross said:

IMHO our Brexit led Govt has shortened the timeframe to unification, I am relaxed about that.0
