Brexit a bigger challenge than Covid-19 pandemic, business leaders say
"The deal has indeed been done, but we are only now finding out what the fine print was and what this might mean for business."
The UK is the first and so far only country to have left the EU and Brexit was and is the withdrawal of the United Kingdom (UK) from the European Union (EU) and the European Atomic Energy Community (EAEC or Euratom). The official withdrawal was at 23:00 31 January 2020 GMT (00:00 CET).
"The deal has indeed been done, but we are only now finding out what the fine print was and what this might mean for business."
“The situation we’re currently in is ridiculous. Music is one of Britain’s greatest cultural exports. It’s a £5.8bn industry that got left out of the Brexit trade negotiations when others weren’t.”
Gove: ‘I think the people of this country have had enough of exports’
'Unionism needs to learn the lesson that they should have learned a number of times over the past 100 years – the British Government will let you down."

“Why were they telling everyone to get ready for Brexit and have left it until now to build a border facility?"
Mr Gove had not responded in writing 'pretty much every time we have written over the last six months'.
Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) chief constable Simon Byrne has warned of a “febrile” atmosphere.
“By installing Dominic Cummings’ Brexit apprentice as head of the so-called ‘Union unit’, the Prime Minister is demonstrating, yet again, that he is completely clueless about Scotland.”
