The head of Getlink (the company that operates the channel tunnel) said freight flows were extremely light this morning. Many hauliers are holding back to avoid being the first to test out the new system. Lets see how it operates when the traffic levels are back to normal.

The choice of it was more to do with it being big enough, close enough and available. They likely payed a grossly inflated price for it though - if you were the owner of the only available usable site you'd take advantage of the government's desperation to get the best return on your investment that you could.

You voted to leave the EU, damage my business. Now it's down to the likes of me to get the country through the **** storm of a crap deal, inept government and lead the country into a golden age? No. Ill keep on keeping on, and you can keep wondering about carrying a hanky looking for people to blame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

She doesn't envisage another border poll taking place during her lifetime. Northern Irish people have the option of obtaining an Irish passport if they choose. The people of Northern Ireland are fortunate because they enjoy and benefit from being part of the UK and are also free to enjoy their traditional Irish roots. The Northern Ireland people would be foolish to break away from the Union and throw away the big advantages of being part of the United Kingdom. Arguably Northern Ireland are the biggest winners of Brexit because their people and businesses  get to enjoy the benefits of both leaving the EU and still having a close connection with Ireland who are still part of the EU.  What are those big advantages?
