If Ashcroft thinks he's on to a winner, he should think again

Honestly at this point if the checks have to happen well they have to happen. The "Sources" say they wont be at the border and will be remote from it, most likely things like trusted trader schemes. Which has been the point put forward by the leave campaign for 3 years

Capitulating to the delay then using it as a campaign rallying cry was always a sensible fall-back position

Standards aren't going to disalign quickly, and we would probably stick to EU product rules anyway

Phyto/agric standards have been talked about because they're a genuine thing

When did what ashcroft is saying happen?

What EU is really worried about is drop of prices of goods, fuel, booze UK side causing a smuggling issue

Tweeted it today, presumably in reference to something said at the Tory conference

Honestly, standards wont disallign at all unless the EU changes thing hugely, especially in the engineering sector.

Course not, Joshu, standards are tending to align wordwide anyway because of the corporate incentive

You think the gov would change everything massively? Learning that shit is hard

Like when youre in a meeting and someone says something

you have to be able to say "Well shit that isnt gonna work because x"

It's nothing to do with standards, really, and everything to do with competitive advantage

and that is usually based on the understanding of the standards

in my case the machinery directive

@wacka been more out than in today. What did Kwasi say?

Safety performance levels etc etc

zzzz

>according to a leading remainer

The article isn't even clear what he means by that. Like, if he is claiming to have some insider information or if he is just saying he thinks that will happen.

It has misleading wording at the very least

He can not request an extension and comply with the law

Imagine thinking The Independent is credible.

Lmao this is almost exactly what I said those stupid zones were gonna be

“Hurrrrr we won’t have checkpoints at the border, we will just make a new border with checkpoints”
