A recent FT article highlighted that industry groups have warned that Britain’s supply chains are at severe risk of disruption from new post-Brexit rules unless urgent action is taken by ministers. With the end of the Brexit transition period in sight (December 31st), forecasts suggest there will be a huge challenge facing the industry, owing to gaps in the government’s efforts to provide a functional cross-border trade system.
With over 10,000 trucks passing through British ports each day, the COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated the importance of a free-flowing Supply Chain. Industrial groups have mentioned that should there be a second spike in COVID-19 cases, the government needs to make sure that these supply chains are protected, to ensure the flow of food, pharmaceutical and medical supplies to the UK.
