'Impossible' for Brexit port to be ready

It won't be needed just another waste of money

jimmyss61 If they start dredging now should be ready in 2025. StopBrexit

There is a bit of irony in that it is the british firm (only out of three) that is dodgy. Proper BrexitShambles :D

As I said the other day, being from Ramsgate, this idea is not the answer to the challenges of a no-deal Brexit. We have a government that lives in a fantasy where the only thing that matters is not evidence, but irrational faith

BBCPolitics Esp as parlt just voted to stop govt spending....

BBCPolitics This particular exercise shows just how far Government REALLY goes in terms of corruption. It would be nice to know which specific donors benefitted from this windfall.

BBCPolitics Don't worry. Article 50 may be revoked to allow for May's crappy deal to be worked on for another couple of years. ;)

But that nice Mr Grayling said all the due diligence had been done. He couldn’t have been lying could he?

Well do you best anyway, there’s a good chap.

So the Tories have bunged our money to some no marks for a really shit series of publicity stunts to hype no deal then?

It would be used as a contingency, ie just in case. There will be no need as we trade under WTO rules with 90% of the world

Hop! Vlaanderen

BBCPolitics Del boy isn't on the board is he

ParkingReview This must be wrong because the government did ‘due diligence’ and can’t have committed public money without being sure that the service could be delivered

More BBC scaremongering! Shame on you

Are the hoover crafts stored somewhere. They where great!

May.juat maybe...

Dunkirk it is then

nick_gutteridge A company with no boats and no port to house no boats, 14,000,000 in their pockets though eh, what a bloody sham this Tory govt. is fraudulent liars to boot.

BBCPolitics If only we’d had two years to prepare 🙄

Correction. Impossible for Searborne to ever be ready - more public money wasted by an inept and useless government!

^ 'Sherlock' and 'no sh*t' springs to mind... stopbrexit

Of course it will be ready for the non existant ferries corruption StopBrexitSaveBritain

BBCPolitics

I'm shocked...

adamfleming

adamfleming The B B C is so biased I no longer believe any thing they say have to check on line.

UK government forgets to consult necessary people in the EU about brexit ideas needing their consent? Whatever next, a referendum without an actionable plan?

adamfleming Bring in the Army forces Engineers? Nothing is impossible, something is possible. I hopethe chances of success is not bring sabotaged brexit

At Dunkirk UK managed to bring back 333k men in 5 days at short notice. You telling me you can't handle checking a few extra passports and lorries?

BBCPolitics

But in the event of s no deal the Eu have already said nothing will change for at least 9 months so trade can still freely move, bbc happy to ignore this

Then step down and hand over to someone that can make it ready.

So if no money’s changing hands yet..who’s paying for the dredging currently taking place at Ramsgate...is it seaborne freight ?

Ah! The BBC! The Brussels Broadcasting Corporation!

It's a good job we didn't say impossible during the war. Brexit

Traitors

I suppose one has to ask why Ostend should bust themselves to potentially bail the U.K. out of a mess unless there is serious profit for them in it.

Chris Grayling strikes again...

Another victory for Grayling. King Midus in reverse. BBCPolitics

jpjanson A scam. There will be a lot more of this sort of nonsense.

What a mess

Just like everything else to do with Brexit really RevokeA50 PeoplesVote theresa_may Conservatives jeremycorbyn UKLabour

And - who’s paying for the dredging already? As grayling says no payment until there are ferries...

Easy to say something is impossible. Good job our ancestors didn't think like that or we would still be living in mud huts. A can do attitude can overcome so much but people now don't even want to try. Probably a lot of opposition trying to make things more difficult.

RogueCoder250 But what if we all just believe?

It doesn't matter as the company that has been awarded the £13 mill order for ferries does not have any ferries and T & C's from a pizza delivery company !!!!!!!!

Am a clairvoyant and the spirits told me we should have remained in the EU

Cancel Brexit. It's a pointless exercise.

UK government had 2.5 years transition period to prepare for Brexit ! We have had enough excuses to delay delivering on the democratic mandate. NoDeal PMQs

No ships no money no employees no track record no ports..time for lunch

Sack him and then employ somebody competent.

And with that the BrexitShambles takes yet another twist! It's sinking faster than the Titanic!
