Then on the return trip, they’d probably top the tanks up in somewhere like Germany or Luxembourg where the fuels cheap and run home! As for these ferries, I could never understand why they never had more direct routs anyway, and for the UK ports, they will be fine because you still have trucks delivering to the UK and Ireland, they will just need to use smaller ships.
We have a tendency as humankind to follow the path of the least resistance in everything we do - this applies to the planning of the logistic routes as much as accepting easy and comfy assurances from gov that "all is project fear, all will stay the same or be even better".

Of course we did . It was known about years ago. But so what. It is an Irish problem, not ours. Stops them trunking loads of lorries through our road networks for free. Holyhead will have to adapt & get trade in years to come from other imports when we start to trade elsewhere. See what happens when it becomes a free port. That will boost the local economy Plus when the Irish learn how to fill in forms they will come back. 30% of the forms to fill in are due to covid, but no one wants to mention that.
@@grahamlongley8298 Where are we gonna pick up extra trade exactly, Atlantis? Do you understand what 'free ports' do?

There is now also a container ferry between Dublin and Amsterdam. This allows truck drivers to deliver containers to both Amsterdam and Dublin where they can be picked up by other drivers on the other side. I actually think they should set up a RoRo connection in the future as well.

Ah, yes, the virtual border. Brexiteers, where is it? Surely if you could have solved the Irish border issue with 'technological solutions', where are those solutions now? Turned out the UK did not even have its more streamlined system in place for the delayed Brexit.

@@jgt_ The research data is out there and remains open for anyone to read. I've read a lot of it and basically it indicates that Brexit was primarily a vote against immigration. Broadly speaking, the Brexit vote cuts across class groupings, it being based on age and education levels. As unemployment during the referendum was a record low, even if everyone who was unemployed had voted to leave, it would be insignificant. The demographic wooed by Johnson in the last election was characterised as 'white van men from Rugby towns.' These people claim to be working class but reside in well to do suburban areas and often vote Tory. They often earn more than teachers and other professionals. Common denometers are that they read the Sun or Mail and are xenophobic, living in mostly white areas. They didn't like Polish plumbers, not because the plumbers were taking their jobs but because these white van men prefer it when they can overcharge due to demand. Some have side earnings as well which they vigorously defend and many are landlords. Voice of the working class indeed.
Ferry providers here (RoI) will start laying on more services to Cherbourg. Brexit's created a lot of disruption, unfortunately.

@TheNewblackdog You do know that Canada plus New Zealand (also plus Australia) is a far smaller market than the EU despite that trading with such large distances will always be more expensive by nature? What is TPTIP? If you're thinking of TTIP, that's a free trade deal between US and... the EU (!), probably back on the table now Trump is gone.
@TheNewblackdog. The problem is that our trade with the EU is much bigger and far more important. It's trade with and via the EU that needs to be fixed.
@TheNewblackdog. Our trade with the EU has diminished significantly since the first of January. But unfortunately we have nothing to replace it with. The most recent estimate is that Brexit will cost our economy over 70 billion a year. So let's deal with reality rather than Farage's fantasy.
@TheNewblackdog. The 70 billion is actually a CONservative estimate. And the reduction of trade via dover and other ports is undeniable. This must impact upon businesses and the economy. Brexit can only be measured on whether it improves or diminishes the country as a whole.
@TheNewblackdog. I've considered several economic forecasts, and American financial journals give a figure as high as £170 billion. All estimates granted, but find me one that paints a positive future. And as I said. The slow down is observably true. You can't deny reality.

Under the current Brexit arrangements, there is no argument to be made for using Holyhead over France-Ireland direct, or Liverpool or Stranraer direct to Larne or Belfast in the case of NI end use products. Sailings from Rosslare to France and Spain and back, have gone from 6 per week to 40 per week. Yes it takes longer at sea, but if you're going to be stuck at multiple border points on the island of GB with the added paperwork and administrative cost, you're still better off to land at Cherbourg, Dunkerque or Santander direct.
And you'll do it rested and ready to drive for 8 hours.

Brexitards would say it's a project fear lol
Of course we did . It was known about years ago. But so what. It is an Irish problem, not ours. Stops them trunking loads of lorries through our road networks for free. Holyhead will have to adapt & get trade in years to come from other imports when we start to trade elsewhere. See what happens when it becomes a free port. That will boost the local economy Plus when the Irish learn how to fill in forms they will come back. 30% of the forms to fill in are due to covid, but no one wants to mention that.

@@jgt_ The research data is out there and remains open for anyone to read. I've read a lot of it and basically it indicates that Brexit was primarily a vote against immigration. Broadly speaking, the Brexit vote cuts across class groupings, it being based on age and education levels.
As unemployment during the referendum was a record low, even if everyone who was unemployed had voted to leave, it would be insignificant. The demographic wooed by Johnson in the last election was characterised as 'white van men from Rugby towns.' These people claim to be working class but reside in well to do suburban areas and often vote Tory. They often earn more than teachers and other professionals. Common denometers are that they read the Sun or Mail and are xenophobic, living in mostly white areas. They didn't like Polish plumbers, not because the plumbers were taking their jobs but because these white van men prefer it when they can overcharge due to demand. Some have side earnings as well which they vigorously defend and many are landlords. Voice of the working class indeed.

@TheNewblackdog. The problem is that our trade with the EU is much bigger and far more important. It's trade with and via the EU that needs to be fixed.
@TheNewblackdog. Our trade with the EU has diminished significantly since the first of January. But unfortunately we have nothing to replace it with. The most recent estimate is that Brexit will cost our economy over 70 billion a year. So let's deal with reality rather than Farage's fantasy.
@TheNewblackdog. The 70 billion is actually a CONservative estimate.
And the reduction of trade via dover and other ports is undeniable. This must impact upon businesses and the economy. Brexit can only be measured on whether it improves or diminishes the country as a whole.
@TheNewblackdog. I've considered several economic forecasts, and American financial journals give a figure as high as £170 billion. All estimates granted, but find me one that paints a positive future.

Be honest, You brits thought you were better than the French, Germans and rest of the EU nations. You thought they were holding you back. You fancied yourself as an American type superpower and were too cool for these EU nations.
But now Brexit hasn't proved your superiority. Cause the truth is, the UK is sh..
Wales has a great future as a land of recreation, quiet clean air, no traffic.
We’re not talking about goods going to the U.K. , we are talking about trucks delivering goods directly from the Eu to Ireland
We're talking about UK ports losing business, UK companies going bust, UK workers losing jobs, UK towns losing residents.
@@ixlnxs Brexit is like “for some that had the unfortunate experience of getting a part of their body removed but can’t express the pain to others “ others won’t believe it because it didn’t happen to them.
This just reminds me of the scene in pretty woman when Julia Roberts gets intimidated by the shop assistant then comes back and tells them they made a big mistake.
😂😂😂😂...big mistake....HUGE!
There we go, it’s finally in motion, U.K gradually being bypassed. I hope Scotland gets out soon, otherwise I’m have to get use to high food prices.
And Ireland with Scottish united in Europe trade market movement of business and .people's movement. Europeans.
@@justhumbleguy1389 Welcoming you with open arms. Bring the spirit, we'll bring the beer. A Bavarian.
@@claudiawenzel7923 don't bring a beer to an Irish , Ursula. He would be upset !
@@antoinemozart243 No problem. Will drink the beer myself, you get the pretzels.....;-)
r they gonna sale their ferries ?, Cherbourg need them :)
@Derek Trump he is French ! I know the UK is far but come on !
You were correct. They are probably already using them on the route to Cherbourg!
A month after the Brexit referendum, Ireland planned to buy two big container vessels to establish sea-routes bypassing the UK (to Cherbourg among others) in case of no deal. Ireland was ready for Brexit in July 2016 and the UK is still not ready today. Let that sink in. ;)
I believe the term is 'Welcome to Brexit'.
EVERYBODY avoiding uk
Brexiteers: HA! Where are the queues ReMoAnErS?

Fact 1: 21% of Wales population was born in England, about 650K residents. Fact 2: About a quarter of those (over 160K) are over 65, with plenty of time to vote. Fact 3: Leave won by less than 85K votes in Wales.
Irish people buying on the internet now use french websites instead of UK.
There is an upside for the UK as there will be less lorry traffic and pollution
We're talking about UK losing business, UK companies going bust, UK workers losing jobs, UK towns losing residents.
Congrats, guys... You've made it, Brexit is done... You've won!! Now get over it 😉👍🏾
