"A no-deal Brexit will have no impact on the flow of truck traffic through Calais port, the terminal's boss, Jean-Marc Puissesseau, insisted on Wednesday while lashing out at British plans to create alternative ferry routes. At present, some 10,000 trucks pass over the Channel on a daily basis between Dover and Calais at peak times. But the lack of space for customs and regulatory checks on the British side means the U.K.'s Department for Transport is funding alternative routes — like a Ramsgate to Ostend link — threatening to drain traffic from Dover-Calais. Puissesseau insisted on the BBC's Today program that his port will not restrict transit under a no-deal scenario. "There will not be any delay," he said. "The trucks will be passing as they are doing today." Puissesseau said preparations include an information campaign for hauliers and creating special checkpoints onsite." The French are scared shitless about losing British trade. This is a manifestation of it. Another remoaning project fear myth bites the dust. | |||

"a) He does not want any new routes created, because it will take away business from his port, so of course he will say there is nothing to worry about. b) he has no control over what HMRC checks are or are not put in place on March 30. " This must class as ironic post of the year so far, | |||

When we leave we will have control of our borders and we can implement those controls over time as systems evolve and any problems occur, which they no doubt will, can be sorted, of course this is obvious to all those clever remainers, oh hang on they think unless everything works perfectly on day one it will prove their argument that brexit will fail.

"What was the concept again about “controlling our borders”? It started to fall apart when controlling the Irish border looked like it might be a tad difficult and now all the ports are expected to be waving traffic through like normal? What is the point?" There is a clear distinction here between waving lorries through packed with heavy goods, and tourists in small cars or tourists coming in through airports against immigration which is where people come to live and work here for long periods. Business, trade and tourism vs immigration where people want to come here to live and work for long periods. People want Control over borders in terms of immigration, which is different to waving through heavy goods vehicles and lorries for trade purposes. | |||

" Of course and it doesnt all need doing on day one either" If things aren't ready and businesses have their goods in trucks, stuck in long queues etc, then who is going to ultimately pay for that? Logistics is notorious for running on very thin margins, which means that you can't tie up trucks and drivers for extensive periods and not impact upon logistics costs/operators as well as the businesses that they serve. Ultimately retailers will be dependent upon their stocks being replenished, so that the public can buy what they want. If things don't arrive or are perished, then it would impact the whole of the UK retail market and millions of customers. The comment that it doesn't all need doing for day one, prompts the response - when should it be ready for? As well as who should be paying for all of the incremental costs that business accrue, if they manage to survive? It's all fine and dandy, according to some geezer in Calais but he's subject to whatever is imposed upon his port by the French government, which will change over time. He'll also not be the manager of businesses who are dependent upon the costs of logistics, that will be adversely affected by delays. | |||
