I received this from the Government today regarding the changes that will need to be made when the transitional period ends on 31/12/20:

The idea is that you go through it and tick the different activities that your business/life is involved in. Then, at the end, you can request email updates about what is changing and what will need to be done.
It's a very good idea, but the claim that everything would be easy and run smoothly for businesses from 1/1/21 was clearly a lie.
I have a friend who is originally from Ireland that supported Brexit, ironically, the other day he posted to complain about having to apply to stay in Britain and that him and his family feel now feel insecure. The daft thing is that he won't need to worry as Irish people can come to live here regardless of the EU position.
Another friend now lives in Spain and wanted Brexit too. She posted today that she is worried about what will happen to her in January!
I'm pretty 50/50 with Brexit, and thought that there were good & bad outcomes from choosing to stay in the EU or from leaving. However, it's becoming clear that some of my friends didn't properly think through how leaving would affect them and that leaving isn't going to be as easy as was claimed by Johnson et al.
Of course, it's all going to be made much worse with the forthcoming recession arising from coronavirus that will be the worst that any of us has ever seen in our lifetime.
