And yet look at the Swiss border, especially at the weekend when they close it to lorries to go home, this is the country held up as how easy it'll be for us post brexit when the none of the people saying it and taking a salary have even bothered to speak to a lorry driver that drives there and yes I suspect Roumanias arrangements requirements werent comparable with ours, I'd imagine they were a lot less complicated and easy to service but then I can't be sure because I wasn't smart enough to actuly ask a Romanian what it was like either
