"I would ask the Irish government to drive a truck for a week to see what Brexit is like." Lorry drivers grumble

It's been 3 weeks since Britain left the EU on December the 31st, but some Lorry Drivers are still having to wait 24 hours in their cabs to get through Customs at Dublin Port. 81% of goods are now being "Green Routed" when they arrive. Leaving 19% needing additional checks because they don't have the correct paperwork and failed to realise how complicated it would be. Because of Brexit stockpiling and Covid, freight is down 50% from this time last year . Henry McKean visited Dublin Port and met frustrated Lorry Drivers, Tom Talbot, Head of Revenue Customs Operations at Dublin Port and Hazel Sheridan, Head of Import Controls Operation at the Department of Agriculture.
