Incredible as in not believable, not quite. UK firms told set up in EU to avoid trade disruption. It's obviously a dreadful situation, these businesses now have trade barriers that weren't there pre brexit, and are struggling. Yes moving their business into Europe, or setting up another European business will sort that. Have they really been advised this is the best way to do it by an official though? That is the amazing bit. If it is true, it's surely one rogue agent giving honest advice, and not following the government line.
I am wondering if I'll have a problem with my new running shoes. Everything is held up at the moment because of coronavirus, just lots of people not working so things are going a bit slower. The company (On Running) have hinted that there will be delays and import duties for some customers though. I am selfishly hoping that means euro customers who've bought shoes from the UK, and not that I have unknowingly bought shoes from Europe that now have import duty.
My shoes aside, this whole situation is a bit of a mess. Who knew?
