    New lorry park

    Presumably this will be the first of many because it's not big enough, They can only get a maximum of 150 parking spaces per acre and it will only hold around 4,000 trucks. I wonder if Grayling had anything to do with it?
    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

    Just wait when they get to install the meters with different tariffs at random so more people get caught and add cycle lanes.

      So people will add cycle lanes when they get caught?

        Is this what Brexiters described as "less red tape" when the UK leaves the EU?

          It will be less red tape - slightly lighter colour, like light red.

            I think there will be fewer red tapes due to supply shortages.

                Just heard some government minister on the radio saying that they will not postpone Brexit due to the port issues because the public will get confused if the Brexit date changes.

                  How can the Brexit date change? Brexit is already got done.

                    They could ask HMRC to use their retrospective powers.
