There’s a shortage of drivers across the EU . Nothing like what we’re seeing , but nonetheless-what’s happening here has prompted other EU countries to take action . they have the single market and the movement of people . We don’t ouest-france.fr/economie/trans…
trans.info/en/belgian-hau… and in Belgium . It seems that the U.K. is a model on how to NOT do things - but to learn from . Again Belgium is in the single market . We’re not .
And this explains why there were a few empty shelves on supermarket shelves in Brussels . A strike - and was quickly rectified . Of course it was reported completely differently here

Johnsons “high skilled high wage” claim is just an acceptance of reality predicted by those who warned him of the consequences of brexit . He’s now so far down a rabbit hole he’s fantasising whilst giving people false hope when in reality we’re facing high inflation and bills
Are we going to start making hydrogen powered time machines ? Rockets to space maybe ? He couldn’t even build a bridge over the river Thames . Maybe technology has moved so far forwards now he can pay those high skilled workers to build it from U.K. made materials .
And at the same time maybe he can achieve his dream and build that tunnel to N.I using some kind of space rock mined by high skilled high wage workers sent up in a U.K. rocket that runs on unicorn gas

Don’t forget from today you MUST have the EXD/SSD documents to enter any port to get into the EU

Chances are you won’t be allowed into the port without it

Oh - and 24 hours notice is needed to get it ready . Just in time ? Nope - gone

Take back control #BrexitIsntWorking
Quote :

The details necessary for us to make the declaration on your behalf must be provided to us via a template (available upon request) at least 24 hours before the unit is sent to the port. The vehicle must not arrive at Dover until the EXS declaration has been created
You will need to submit an ‘arrived’ Exit Summary Declaration which removes the requirement to submit a separate arrival message in CHIEF. To do this, you will need to submit an Export Full Declaration in CHIEF using the new Customs Procedure Code (CPS) 1/2

Don’t forget : From the 1st October 2021, GB Exit Summary Declarations (EXS) will be legally required for empty pallets, containers and vehicles moved under a transport contract exported to the EU. Less red tape remember .. #Brexit
Remember the pallets ... make sure they are properly stamped . Im sure I mentioned something about pallets ages ago
Also..A Safety and Security Declaration (SSD) is used by border authorities to analyse the potential risk caused to their territory by goods crossing their border. It is not about the duties and taxes. There are two types of declaration – ENS (entry summary declaration) and EXS

Out of diesel . Work cancelled rest of the week . Just enough to get truck back to the yard . It’s not getting better it’s getting worse .
I delivered to a building site this morning and the bulldozers were out of diesel !
Plus was meant to take a job to Oxford . Didn’t have the diesel to get there .

@mrjamesob to deliver fuel you need an ADR licence in tanks / can do a course in a week-However once you have the licence it’s essential to train on how to collect from a refinery - and the safe unloading at a petrol station - need anti static clothing etc . It’s quite involved !
I had an adr licence , but In packages - I have also carried fuel in quantities up to 333KGS - it’s an ADR thing with weights
If you have a shortage of adr drivers ... what about the distribution of food products ? Hot x bun mix for one , is in its pure form, class 3 flammable and requires an adr licence .

Help me out
Just been to Italy-did a shop in como-no shortages in fact too much choice of everything - same applies in Switzerland
Fuel seems to be cheaper than it was
Lots of tourists from all over Europe
Life seems normal
Coming back tk the U.K. :

The passenger locator form is like a bible
I get a txt from the Swiss about the U.K. being on a restricted list

To come back from Europe you need tests - it’s enough to make you think sod it and stay in the U.K.
You know

Everything in the U.K. seems quite frankly f****** miserable right now

It’s almost as if Johnson wants to stop as many people as possible from leaving and experiencing life outside the U.K. post brexit
