I'm not unique. From relevant coalface experience all I have predicted has come true and will continue to do so. The overwhelmed implosion of freight movements will come even if UK (as seems more likely) is still not ready to implement full stepped up controls by 1/4 & 1/7.
GB to EU with greater controls into EU than from EU into GB is same as GB into NI imbalanced to/from flow that reached headlines. It's just not yet wound up enough. The EU buyers, unlike and not influenced by a raging DUP NI, have much greater alternative suppliers to readily
replace the GB suppliers. NI could alleviate some of its issues & will by also looking for alternative suppliers to GB in ROI & rest of EU..which is why DUP (if not the tories too) are desperate to collapse (or will at least again try to unilaterally "modify") the Irish Protocol
..What I don't understand is despite the inevitability of what's coming everybody seems apathetic enough to allow the UK to continue stumbling into the mess and it become once again, as always, shock "news" .
None of this experienced by so far is "news" it never was

once UK decided it wanted to be a non Single Market member and a non Customs Union member without the working capacity, or enough widespread understanding of what it meant, to be so.

before it's too late than already is for far too many (inc those that don't yet realise). Find some Gallic fight. Stop being polite. Strike. Command headlines. Alternatively UK Gov will wipe out more businesses, livelihoods & jobs, crash the economy, even reignite 'the troubles'
and bring some desperate succour in the rather dubious "saviour" of "freeport" charter cities (which I have been reading more about)
