Well it's not all bad news, is it? I mean 7000 lorries waiting to cross the channel... I wouldn't call that a "fucked economy".

I would.

[OngBonga]

I would.

No lorries wanting to take goods out of the country seems like a worse scenario to me.

First name to pop into my head was Obama. Admittedly, had to go back 4 years for that one.

I'm pretty sure you have to be a sociopath to drone the shit out of villages.

By that standard, Churchill was a sociopath when he allowed the RAF to bomb Germany into rubble in WWII.

Churchill probably was a sociopath, but we were actually at war so it's a little different.

That tweet that started this convo today was the gov't saying it, Michael Gove, not me.

Well my guess is it's a negotiating tactic then. idk his motivation, but I don't believe it. Do you think firms will just keeping sending their lorries as the queue builds?

I assume you're being deliberately dense here, but just in case you're not:

If there's 7k lorries parked at Kent, there'll be a similar number of lorries parked at Calais waiting to bring goods over here. Things we need like food, medicine, etc. Hence the warnings from the so-called "Project Fear" experts that were poo-poohed by Brexiters.

"Just in time" manufacturing is the standard these days, and relies on things arriving on time, not hours or days later. So expect a lot of disruption there.

Tariffs will still be in place and so prices will go up regardless of whether there are delays or not.

And before you say this should motivate the EU to make a deal, please note that a trading bloc of 450m that already has trade deals with most of the world outside the UK (as opposed to our one deal - in principle - with Japan) is not going to be intimidated by a country of 68m that will be desperately looking for someone, anyone, to trade with.
