You'll recall that Brexit was meant to allow us to 'control' our borders, and you may also know that the checkpoint for imported meat products is 22 miles inland from Dover; drivers are required to drive to the checkpoint to have their shipments checked for compliance & disease control....

So, how many of you will be surprised that nearly 20% of shipments never turn-up for inspection, just going straight to their destination?

Not only was Brexit idiocy its also badly managed!

@ChrisMayLA6 "hey we will let you into the country unchecked but you have to pinky-promise that you will go to the facility and probably wait for a long time before driving to your destination".

Was that the concept? I wonder why that didn't work...
