Brexit

The UK port industry is the second largest in Europe, handling roughly 500 million tonnes of freight each year, as well as over 60 million international and domestic passenger journeys. Following the Brexit Referendum, uncertainty over the UK’s future trade relationship with the EU has led to predictions of long queues at harbours on both sides of the Channel after Britain leaves the bloc next March.In this episode we will look at what the possible impacts are of a ‘No-Deal Brexit’, whether Theresa May's proposal goes far enough to ensure frictionless trade with Europe or should shipping companies seek alternatives to Dover post-Brexit?Visit www.theshippingexchange.co.uk for more information and social media links or search 'The Shipping Exchange' on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Instagram!
