Actually its not deliberate its the usual problem of nobody knows how to
do it yet, since the paperwork is impenetrable.


Bull****, aliexpress has worked out how to do it.

Ordered them from Hong Kong instead. No problem although we don't have a
free trade deal with China...

The EU are behaving like sulky teenagers aren't they?

We are being treated worse than any other independent country.

Financial equivalence from te Telegraph..

"Mr Bailey said: "It would be reasonable to think that a common framework
of global standards combined with the common basis of the rules - since
the UK transposed EU rules from the outset - would be enough to base
equivalence on global standards. Less than this was enough when Canada,
the US, Australia, Hong Kong and Brazil were all deemed equivalent.

"The EU has argued it must better understand how the UK intends to amend
or alter the rules going forward. This is a standard that the EU holds
*no other country to* and would, I suspect, not agree to be held to
itself."

This stance only made sense, Mr Bailey said, if rules were either not
allowed to change - which the Bank chief called "unrealistic, dangerous
and inconsistent with practice" - or if Britain had to obtain Brussels'
permission to change the rules, which "is not acceptable".

The Governor said he did not want "a low regulation, high-risk, anything
goes financial centre and system", but that it was important rules could
be improved.

British regulations could be changed to free small, UK-only banks from
rules designed for international lenders, he said, something which is
common practice in the US and Switzerland, which are still deemed to be
equivalent by the EU.

Whitehall sources said that Mr Gove was expected to stress the need for
"urgent progress" on Northern Ireland, and for the EU to recognise the
problems being felt by businesses and people living in the region.

'A world in which the EU dictates what rules and standards we have in the
UK is not going to work' "


The EU has declared war on us hasn't it?
That's how scared they are that other nations will follow us.

that they are dead.
