😩 More Brexit pain ahead for SMEs as new “complex” rules come into effect next week – another barrier to growth. The EU’s General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) will apply as of 13 December and have been put in place to upgrade product safety standards. It means small firms have to pay for someone to check their items are safe for selling. As Northern Ireland has effectively remained in the EU’s single market for goods after Brexit, this means it is also affected by the change. As new obligations are not clear, many are planning on stopping selling to the EU and Northern Ireland as they do not want to breach the rules – or pay out for a so-called responsible person who must do the product safety checks. It means many have been forced to stop trading at the busiest time of year for their business, affecting growth prospects and profits. inews.co.uk/inews-lifestyle/…

"The British fashion industry's sales and businesses have declined as a result of Brexit. Heightened customs barriers, administrative costs, a workforce shortage, and the lack of VAT-free shopping for tourists have negatively impacted the industry's growth." RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺

Trump’s planned tariffs will halve UK growth and make British people poorer. Oh and if you are coming into my mentions trying to make the case for this deluded idiot please come armed with something better than crying emojis and a racist feed Ta theguardian.com/us-news/2024…

Every constituency in the UK has had people sign the petition for the UK to apply to rejoin the EU. Almost 10,000 have signed... in 6 days. Wake up, it's now an emergency. The UK cannot face a World Trade War alone. – at Burton upon Trent, England
