Brexit Good News

Being a "half full glass' person rather than the 'half empty glass' people on contributing their views, which I respect, I thought a couple of reports today regarding contentious matters relating to this much debated subject, might just bring some re-assurance to both sides of the discussion.   Both are good news for the UK.

 

Reports.

 

Despite the concerns issued by those associated with Project Fear, it has been reported that the UK will sign a "trade continuity" deal with the Republic of Korea. There had been fears that the UK would be unable to sign any trade deal with leading countries around the world. But this agreement marks a huge development in the UK's post-Brexit future

The agreement with South Korea will allow businesses to keep trading freely until after the October 31 exit date.   The new free trade agreement allegedly replicates the parameters of the current EU-South Korea trade deal which was signed in 2011.

Recently appointed Trade Secretary, Liz Truss will apparently sign the deal with Korean Minister of Trade, Yoo Myung-hee in London.

In a statement, the Korean Minister insisted that signing the deal would remove the uncertainty of Brexit.

 

Ignore Project Fear! Customs expert confirms there ARE alternatives to Brexit backstop

Chair of Joint Customs Consultative Committee Peter MacSwiney confirmed that goods could be checked away from the Irish Border using technology. Mr MacSwiney noted that this would be a difficult process for some “micro-businesses” but noted that it could be done for other types of business. He told Sky News’ Kimberly Leonard: “Well, I guess there are alternatives to the backstop. 

Technology is available to track goods, to report goods, we have got systems of fiscal clearance away from the physical frontier.

“But it all hinges on the person moving the goods tells you they are doing that.

 

So folks, it's not all doom and gloom.   Just requires a positive attitude of mind!
