Re: Brexit

I had a strange thought at work . . and it made me chuckle . . so I'm hoping some of you clever people on here can answer something that is now puzzling me.

There are plans being made (including the recent 'test' shambles) to turn parts of motorways into huge lorry parks if a 'no deal' Brexit goes ahead . . with me so far?

The assumption is that Lorries will be delayed access to European destinations due to the change in Customs checks etc . . still with me?

So, onto my question . . . if a 'no deal' Brexit means we have no trade with the EU, where the heck are these thousands of lorries going, and what with?

it's like - the local shop ceases trading and they still expect queues of shoppers outside the door
