Hopefully if you wanted a British-made Brooks saddle for your bicycle, you ordered it already. If not - and you're in the UK - you're out of luck for the time being.

Seems that while the saddles are made in Britain, they're shipped to customers from Brooks's logistics centre in Italy. Brexit-related troubles have meant they've stopped taking UK orders:

Brexit is going well...

There is more red tape.
The fishermen are worse off.
There is no frictionless trade.
There is a border in the Irish Sea. America is not coming to the rescue.

And the Vote Leave government is now delivering the worst Covid death rate & one of the deepest recessions in the world.

Well done

Every country has its currency even if that currency is common among others countries. How many used the lira??? Every country has its GDP, Britain's is less now than any time since the great depression. What resources? Much of the stock uk stock market has relocated to Europe. And with an outdated commonwealth does not seem to to be going well

So your point is???

My point is that Britain should not complain, because the countries of the Mediterranean area are facing huge losses because of the €...
So...I think that the EU has not been a good idea...
