Disengagement effect without agreement "Insufficient preparations due to low corporate and public awareness" Document released September 12, 11:25
As the deadline for withdrawal from the EU = European Union approaches at the end of next month, the British government has released a document summarizing the impact on citizens' lives and the economy of leaving without agreement.
The British government released the contents of the document on the 11th after the parliament passed a motion to publish an internal document summarizing the impact on citizens' lives and the economy in the event of a withdrawal without agreement.
The document summarizes the worst-case scenario of leaving the EU without an agreement as of the 2nd of last month and points out that companies and the public are not aware of the lack of agreement and the preparation is insufficient.
In terms of logistics, there is a heavy traffic jam due to customs clearance, and trucks carrying cargo to France are said to be delayed by up to two and a half days before crossing the border.
In addition, the supply of pharmaceuticals will drop to 40%, which may continue for half a year, and the supply of fresh food will also be affected, leading to price increases.
In addition, immigration procedures increase when people move, and railway stations, airports, and ports are congested.
Gove, who is in charge of leaving without agreement, said, “It ’s just a worst-case scenario, not a prediction of what ’s likely to happen,” explaining that he continues to take steps to avoid confusion.
