I am very proud of my blog. I also think that I have found the new mix of news. So do you.
I have now for the first time reached the same number of blog readers as before the break.
In December lore than 14.800 people read the blog. Thank you for comkng back. Thank you for reading a blog about Capacity Building, Customs, Borders, Trade, Brexit, reform & modernization, music, film, sport and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.,
Now we are going for a record breaking 2018. This is year with huge multiple activities in all the topics of this blog. So let’s do it together! Let’s break a record.
For centuries human kind has been asking the impossible philosphic questions about things like; life, space, the future.
Now there is a question like that for the Customs world, or is there? Sometimes when reading media about Brexit I get the feeling that everything is open, the solutions can be everything or anything. We don’t know. Itbis up for negotiations. This is simply not true.
We have had Customs procedures by our borders, regardless of what borders, for more than 2000 years. We know what a border means. Leaving a Customs territory means leaving a Customs territory. And entering another.
We know since many years what processes that need to be handled to organize trade from one area to another. There are international standards for it. It is not rocket science.
However it can be implemented in a modern, smart way – or not.
The sooner we start talking about smart practical solutions, the better.
The real question is; Is it possible to implement and have smart borders around the Gustoms area of United Kingdom?
The answer? Yes, absolutely,
