Book Novotel Hotel Brexit: Date for new checks on Irish agri-food products still unclear Banzai Japan Music Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPElmgQJGBo It is still uncertain when Irish agri-food products being shipped to Great Britain will face new post-Brexit checks. From Tuesday, agri-food products from the rest of the European Union (EU) will be subject to the checks. The UK government has said checks on Irish products will not start until November at the earliest. The Welsh government said it is likely to be the first half of 2025 before facilities are ready. The Republic of Ireland is a major exporter of food to Great Britain, with Welsh ports acting as a major gateway for those products. Book Novotel Hotel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJsGZL-zb54 Earlier this year, the Welsh government said there were still issues to resolved between the UK and Welsh governments in regard to the checks. Another complicating factor is the need to ensure that checks on Irish goods do not interfere with the “unfettered access” of Northern Ireland goods going to Great Britain. When the UK left the EU in 2021, goods from Great Britain going to the EU were immediately subject to the customs and regulatory processes applied to any non-member state. However, the UK government was not ready to apply controls on EU goods and the introduction of those controls was delayed on five occasions in the subsequent three years. Banzai Japan Music Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3syHHGzkF_s The checks are now being phased in. In January, there was the introduction of customs processes and official certification of some food products. Irish goods were subject to those changes. Goods from Northern Ireland going directly to Great Britain do not face any checks or controls as the UK government has guaranteed they will have “unfettered access”. In January, the UK government also confirmed it would not build a border control post at Cairnryan. The Scottish port is the main access point for Northern Ireland goods entering Great Britain. A border control post had been planned in order to check Republic of Ireland goods being sent to Scotland via NI ports. That was politically controversial, as it raised the prospect of NI goods also being caught up in the checks.

Vet medicine supplies: Concerns over post-Brexit arrangements

Book Novotel Hotel Vet medicine supplies: Concerns over post-Brexit arrangements Banzai Japan Music Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPElmgQJGBo Farmers from Northern Ireland have voiced concerns to a Westminster committee about the production and supply of veterinary medicines. Farmers like David Brown rely on medicines to keep their animals healthy and to meet standards for putting them into the food chain. But Brexit has made getting those medicines more complicated. A grace period is in place but politicians say action is needed. The grace period runs until the end of December 2025 but a cross-party House of Lords committee says the issue of veterinary medicine supplies to Northern Ireland – to protect animal and human health – needs to be looked at urgently The House of Lords Windsor Framework Sub-Committee has written to Northern Ireland Office Minister Steve Baker with the findings of its inquiry into the issue. Book Novotel Hotel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJsGZL-zb54 Mr Baker is responsible for the implementation of the Windsor Framework. In their letter, the committee members have endorsed a number of recommendations, including recognition for a GB-based Market Authorisation Holder and the importance of reaching a mutually-agreed solution. They also asked the government several questions with a deadline of the end of June 2024 for a response. They include whether an assessment has been made of the potential of a reduction in veterinary medicines for human health and the supply chain in Great Britain and Northern Ireland; what medicines are at risk of being discontinued; and what progress has been made in reaching a solution with the EU. In a statement, a UK government spokesperson said it had secured a grace period and set up the Veterinary Medicines Working Group which was to report in the coming months. This was “making positive progress towards identifying the steps needed to secure supplies for the long term”, they added. ‘Clarity needed’ Banzai Japan Music Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3syHHGzkF_s As president of the Ulster Farmers’ Union, David Brown was among those who gave evidence to the committee. “It’s important to recognise that about 50% of those [medicines] are for farm animals, but the other 50% are for our horses, our pets, companion animals,” he said. “For pharmaceutical companies who manufacture these products they don’t do it on a whim in the past few weeks. “Ultimately we need to see clarity and a decision taken.” A panel on veterinary medicines was set up as part of the agreement that saw the return of the Stormont Executive earlier in 2024. Committee chairman Lord Jay of Ewelme said the stakes were “pretty high” around the issue. He added that time was of the essence. “I can understand why it’s difficult to reach agreement now when you’ve got the uncertainty over elections in the United Kingdom, you’ve got uncertainty over elections to the European Parliament, you’ve got uncertainty over a new commission coming in. “So I think it makes sense for the government to try to get its ducks in a row so that it can, when the time comes, start those negotiations pretty swiftly with the European Union and, we hope, find agreements with them.”Challenging issue Medicines have been one of the most difficult post-Brexit trade issues in Northern Ireland. That is because Northern Ireland has remained in the EU’s single market for goods, a market which includes medicines. However, Northern Ireland gets most of its medicines from distributors and manufacturers in Great Britain. Under the terms of the original deal, the Northern Ireland Protocol, medicines being sent from GB to NI would have required retesting and relabelling to ensure they met EU standards. The EU ultimately agreed to major changes for human medicines but veterinary medicines still face the prospect of needing to meet those retesting and relabelling requirements, and the risk they will be withdrawn from sale as a consequence.Why does it matter? Protecting animals from disease is an important element of the food chain. There are also implications for companion animals or pets, and for show animals such as horses, which may not be able to travel for competitions if they are unable to access vaccinations. About 85% of animal medicines authorised for use in Northern Ireland are registered to addresses in Great Britain, meaning they don’t meet EU rules and additional checks would be required. Because the market in Northern Ireland is small, any additional administrative burden could mean it would be economically unviable for some veterinary medicine manufacturers to make the required regulatory changes. Some supply routes have already been altered to avoid additional checks being needed. As a result, it is believed approximately a third of products currently remain at risk of being withdrawn. The committee was warned that for products for which alternative supply routes cannot be found, technical discussions will be needed with the European Commission to maintain their availability. There was also fear around “significant reputational risk” if there was a perception that the Northern Ireland agri-food sector could not access essential veterinary medicines. The sector feeds an estimated 10 million people and concerns were also expressed about the impact of any disruption to production on UK food security.

‘Brexit trade checks will cost me £200,000 a year’

Book Novotel Hotel ‘Brexit trade checks will cost me £200,000 a year’ Banzai Japan Music Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPElmgQJGBo New checks brought in under the UK’s Brexit trade agreement will cost one business up to £225,000 a year, its co-owner has said. Meat and dairy products, plants and seeds are among the goods now subject to physical checks when imported to Britain from the European Union from Tuesday. Businesses have warned the trade checks, which will see import costs increase immediately, are expected to hit smaller companies hardest and lead to price rises being passed on to customers for certain products. John Davidson, co-owner of flower company Tom Brown Wholesale, said he expected the checks to cost his business between £200,000 and £225,000 per year. “Usually we try and absorb as much as we can, but those sorts of costs… [it’s] just not possible to absorb everything,” he said. The second phase of border controls kicked in from midnight and have been introduced as part of the UK’s Brexit trade agreement. The government said its new border model would “improve our biosecurity”, adding the costs for businesses would be “negligible compared to the impact of a major outbreak of a plant or animal disease”, such as foot and mouth. The UK officially left the EU four years ago, but it has taken some time for the new trade rules to be implemented – legally required under the Brexit agreement – for goods travelling from the bloc to the British Isles. Health certificates were introduced in January on EU goods ranging from cut flowers, to fresh produce including meat, fruit and vegetables, but on Tuesday, physical checks for the goods have come into force. British exporters trading in the other direction have already faced increased red tape for three years. The introduction of such UK border controls is reversing the free flow of such goods, which had been allowed under the EU single market since 1993. The physical checks will be carried out based on the “risk” category that goods fall into. For example, the government said high-risk goods, such as live animals, will be subject to identity and physical checks for pests and diseases at the border. Products that present a medium risk to biosecurity will also be checked, while low-risk goods, such as canned meat will not require any checks. The new checks are not yet being applied to goods from the Republic of Ireland, which is a major supplier of food to the UK. The UK government says the checks on Irish goods will not happen before November. But businesses, especially smaller companies, have raised concerns that the new checks could disrupt supply chains and increase costs, with importers having to pay £29 per shipment of particular products. If multiple types of product are being imported by one business, such as meat, fish and cheese, the company will have to pay £29 per category, up to a maximum of £145 per consignment. The government has forecast the charges will cost British firms about £330m per year. Mr Davidson told The Newz Breakfast his “bigger worry” was how the physical checks would work in practice. “These products are already checked in Holland. From an industry point of view the communication has really been lacking. “At the moment Defra (the government department) is saying they are going to use [a] light-touch approach to checking. What does that actually mean? We just want some real clarity on it.” While the checks are coming into force on Tuesday, it is understood the number of them will be very low to start with as traders become accustomed to the new rules. The government has acknowledged that the extra red tape and checks will increase food prices, but not as much as seen in recent times. It has forecast the controls could push up inflation by 0.2 percentage points over three years. But Lucy Neville-Rolfe, minister at the Cabinet Office, said the new checks were essential to improve the UK’s biosecurity. “We cannot continue with temporary measures which leave the UK open to threats from diseases and could do considerable damage to our livelihoods, our economy and our farming industry,” she said. On Tuesday, Trade Minister Greg Hands and Exports Minister Lord Garvel were asked about the checks by the Business Select Committee. “I know there’s been frustration expressed on all sides of the equation, but the objective has been to try and minimise the cost and minimise the disruption”, Lord Garvel told the committee. “When you bring in anything new, of course people are concerned and there is uncertainty, and this is a dynamic situation,” he added. Tom Bradshaw, president of the National Farmers Union, said the group welcomed the checks “as a way of safeguarding the nation’s food safety”. “British farmers and growers need controls on all imports, not just those from the EU, to be effective, biosecure and efficient. That looks different for the individual sectors in agriculture, dependent on business need,” he said. Book Novotel Hotel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJsGZL-zb54 Britain imports 22% of its beef, 21% of its sheep meat and 49% of its pork, and relies on the EU for the bulk of those imports, due to consumer demand outstripping supply, according to the British Meat Processors Association. The industry body said with “so little clear explanation” of how the new import checks will be rolled out, it had been “very difficult to gauge the impact on meat supplies, even after four years of preparation”. It said it suspected that larger importers would not be adversely affected, but warned that smaller importers would be. Jamie Collins, of family-run food retailer Hamish Johnston in London, told the The Newz his business would probably have to put prices up a bit to maintain its profit margins. “We import quite a lot of cheese every week from France. Every import we bring over on a weekly basis is looking to get an extra £220 added
Windsor Framework: DUP supports pet food EU law being added to post-Brexit deal
Buy Now An error occurred. Buy Now An error occurred. Book Novotel Hotel Windsor Framework: DUP supports pet food EU law being added to post-Brexit deal Banzai Japan Music Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPElmgQJGBo The DUP has supported a new EU law being added to the Windsor Framework. The framework is the revised post-Brexit deal for Northern Ireland. The addition of new EU laws to the framework are subject to a cross-community Stormont vote known as an applicability motion. The new law is a largely uncontroversial one, concerning the organic content of pet food. Currently pet food must have 100% organic content to be marketed as organic in the EU. The new law will reduce the organic content requirement to 95%, the same level as Great Britain. Deputy First Minister Emma Little-Pengelly of the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) said if the assembly voted against the law Northern Ireland would be “the only place in UK stuck with the old rule”. Book Novotel Hotel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJsGZL-zb54 That was echoed by the Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) assembly member Steve Aiken who said failure to support the change would create a divergence with the rest of the UK. The motion was opposed by the Traditional Unionist Voice (TUV) leader and assembly member Jim Allister who said that whatever the content of the law, the whole process was a “constitutional affront”. He said that it demonstrated how in hundreds of areas only the EU can make laws for Northern Ireland, not the Stormont Assembly or the Westminster Parliament. He added that this amounted to “colonial rule” from the EU. The deputy first minister defended the applicability motion process, saying the DUP had “fought for and secured” measures to give Stormont a “meaningful say”. She described the original NI Brexit deal, the Protocol, as having an “appalling democratic deficit”. Banzai Japan Music Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3syHHGzkF_s The Alliance assembly member Eoin Tennyson said it was “a genuinely positive step” that the motion had been jointly tabled by the first minister and deputy first minister. The motion was also supported by Sinn Féin and the Social Democratic and Labour Party (SDLP). It was passed by 74 votes to two. There were 32 votes in favour from nationalists and 16 votes from others, with no votes against from these groups. Among unionists, there were 26 votes in favour and two against. Those voting against were Jim Allister and independent unionist Alex Easton. A majority of DUP assembly members, 15, supported the new EU law on Monday, but nine DUP assembly members did not vote. In March, the DUP voted against an applicability motion concerning a new EU law on the protection of geographical indications (GI) for craft and industrial products. The law could still be applied in Northern Ireland if the UK government assesses it would not create a new regulatory border between GB and NI, or if it believes exceptional circumstances apply. It is still not clear what the government intends to do on this matter. If the government vetoes the law, the EU could ultimately take “appropriate remedial measures”.

Book Novotel Hotel Tommy Robinson case collapses over police paperwork Banzai Japan Music Video Far-right activist Tommy Robinson has been cleared of breaching a dispersal order after a judge ruled the power had not been legally authorised. The 41-year-old, real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was arrested at a march against antisemitism after organisers said he would not be welcome. A senior Met Police officer who signed the dispersal order had previously told Westminster Magistrates’ Court he had used the wrong date. On Tuesday, District Judge Daniel Sternberg ruled there was no case to answer. Following the verdict, Mr Robinson announced on X, formerly Twitter, that he was planning to sue the Metropolitan Police. He posted: “The next time I see you lot in court it’s going to be you having to defend your actions.” Book Novotel Hotel The responsibility of policing certain aspects of the protest, which was being held in Westminster, central London, fell to Insp Steve Parker-Phipps. The court heard the inspector imposed a Section 35 order under the Crime and Policing Act 2014 when he thought a “right-wing group” could potentially be attending. Insp Parker-Phipps, whose laptop battery was “dying”, put the order in place at 10:00 GMT on 26 November, but accidentally dated the form for 24 November. Mr Robinson’s defence lawyer, Alisdair Williamson KC, told the court there had been a “litany of catastrophic errors” in the Met’s handling of the incident. Questioning the inspector, Mr Williamson said: “This document is not correct is it? “Can we have any confidence that there was a lawful order in place?” To which the inspector replied: “No.” Banzai Japan Music Video ‘No case to answer’ Giving his ruling, District Judge Daniel Sternberg said: “I am not satisfied there was a legal authorisation. “There is no case for you to answer.” The hearing was attended by numerous supporters of Mr Robinson who filled the public gallery. During his arrest, officers sprayed the English Defence League founder with synthetic pepper spray and handcuffed him. He uploaded a video of himself with partially closed eyes to social media after the incident. Other footage of him arguing with police officers was also posted on his X account, with Mr Robinson claiming to be present as a journalist at the march.

Chris Le Masurier said EU paperwork was taking “days to complete” before he can sell his stock in France. He described the restrictions as “bureaucratic nonsense” which is “ruining” his business. Jersey’s government said work was being done to minimise “red tape” and “restrictions”. Since 2021 all consignments of Jersey caught fresh fish and bi-valve molluscs such as oysters must enter the EU through restrictions at a Border Control Post. Book Novotel Hotel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJsGZL-zb54 Mr Le Masurier, owner of the Jersey Oyster Company, said the amount of paperwork that needed to be submitted often led to mistakes and further delays. “That produce isn’t fresh, so not only is it tarnishing our reputation for fresh, good seafood into the EU – we’re also losing customers,” he said. Since Brexit, Mr Masurier believes his company has lost 75% of its customers in the EU. He said he was confident the Council of Ministers would do what was needed, adding: “If there is ever a time we have to stand up for our island, it’s now.”‘Benefits slow coming’ Banzai Japan Music Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3syHHGzkF_s In 2020 the UK government said Brexit would be good for the whole of the British isles including the Crown Dependencies. The head of Jersey Farmers’ Union Doug Richardson said: “If there are benefits to be had, they are a bit slow in coming.” He added: “Once European exporters are faced with what we have to go through, perhaps heads will get round a table and just simplify it.” Deputy Steve Luce, Jersey’s Minister for the Environment, said “Our aim is to achieve the right levels of protection for animal, plant and human health, but to balance that with minimising restrictions on trade and avoiding over-cumbersome red tape.” Details of a border operating model and timetable are yet to be finalised. Mr Luce said officers were already working on a trusted trader scheme to allow “some businesses to apply many aspects of the border controls on their own imports, providing options to minimise burdens on frequent imports”. He added: “We’re committed to engaging closely with stakeholders in the coming weeks to make sure any new processes work for them.” Book Novotel Hotel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RR8YYeb4PMk Banzai Japan Social Media Fumi Fujisaki Idol Riko Ueno Idol Rino Ibusuki Idol Yunagi Nino Idol Shiori Fujisaki Idol Kana Ichinose Idol Hoshino Arice Idol Sasa Sasagawa Idol Kosaka Yuu Idol Tsukumo Aira Idol Maika Ando Idol Yuuki Mochimaru Idol

Paolo Barone, 51, was travelling home from his shift as a Thameslink driver when he took photos of a sleeping woman throughout the 45-minute journey from Blackfriars to St Albans in 2022. Barone, who was in uniform, took more photos directed up the woman’s skirt before leaving the train. He was given a three-month jail sentence, suspended for 12 months. Three phones and a computer were seized from his home when he was arrested and one phone had five images of the woman, British Transport Police said. Barone, of Brackley Road, High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, was found guilty of voyeurism and sentenced at St Albans Crown Court.

Brexit: Westminster did not tell Stormont about two new EU laws
Buy Now An error occurred. Buy Now An error occurred. Book Novotel Hotel Brexit: Westminster did not tell Stormont about two new EU laws Banzai Japan Music Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPElmgQJGBo The government has been accused of rendering a Stormont committee “impotent” after failing to alert members to two new EU laws. The new and updated environmental regulations have now come into force. The delay means assembly members (MLAs) were not able to fully examine the impact of the new laws in Northern Ireland. They were also unable to deploy the Stormont brake to suspended their implementation. Book Novotel Hotel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJsGZL-zb54 The new regulations restrict the use of harmful gasses in the manufacture of refrigeration systems and ban the production and sale of ozone depleting substances. Stormont’s Windsor Framework scrutiny committee has a set period of time to examine new EU regulations once they are published. These new regulations were first published in February, but the cabinet office only notified the committee earlier in April. Members were told on Thursday that the deadlines for publishing a report on the new regulations or deploying the Stormont brake to block their implementation had now passed. Banzai Japan Music Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3syHHGzkF_s Committee chairman Phillip McGuigan, of Sinn Féin, said members had rightly registered their “dissatisfaction” at the late notification by the cabinet office. Democratic Unionist Party member David Brooks said the delay had rendered the committee “impotent” and undermined trust in the system, which was set up to scrutinise new EU laws. Ulster Unionist committee member Steve Aiken said the unacceptable delay set a dangerous precedent and showed how the system has fallen down just months after being set up. He added it was a “serious and significant” issue which needed to be raised with the UK EU joint committee which oversees the implementation of the Windsor Framework.

Book Novotel Hotel Turtle rescued in Guernsey could go to Cape Verde due to Brexit – charity Banzai Japan Music Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPElmgQJGBo A turtle that washed up on a beach in Guernsey could be sent to Cape Verde due to Brexit complications, an animal charity has said. The loggerhead turtle dubbed “Barnacle Bill” was taken in by the GSPCA after Storm Ciarán hit in November. Bill was scheduled to return to her natural habitat in Gran Canaria, but that has proved difficult due to paperwork issues, the GSPCA said. GSPCA manager Steve Byrne said she may have to go “a bit further afield”. Book Novotel Hotel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJsGZL-zb54 He said the GSPCA had not received the required paperwork from Spanish authorities required to get Barnacle Bill to Gran Canaria. The island, which is home to a turtle rescue centre, had previously taken in a loggerhead turtle from the GSPCA six years ago. Mr Byrne said Cape Verde, an archipelago off Africa’s western coast, was being considered. Banzai Japan Music Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3syHHGzkF_s “With the length of time and a couple of other complications we are having to look into the potential of going a bit further afield,” he said. “We have been in touch with a rescue in Cape Verde, which is a few hundred miles to the south [of Gran Canaria], and they are looking at the possibility of being able to help with Barnacle Bill.” He said the GSPCA was “still exploring” Gran Canaria as an option. “Brexit, and all the other complicated legislation that’s been brought in to moving animals in and out between the British Isles and the EU, is just causing a few challenges,” he said. “Cape Verde are outside of the EU themselves – that might be an easier option for us.” Book Novotel Hotel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RR8YYeb4PMk Banzai Japan Social Media Fumi Fujisaki Idol Riko Ueno Idol Rino Ibusuki Idol Yunagi Nino Idol Shiori Fujisaki Idol Kana Ichinose Idol Hoshino Arice Idol Sasa Sasagawa Idol Kosaka Yuu Idol Tsukumo Aira Idol Maika Ando Idol Yuuki Mochimaru Idol
