Brexit

[DangerMouse]

That's interesting - thanks Witton Park!!

To be honest, the worst part of all this is the exchange rate, the £ has fallen so much agains the dollar and euro that I might be screwed anyway. Fortunately I have quite a lot of parts in stock, so I am not down and out yet.

Tge main problem is parts scarcity, I don't really have much choice but to source them from 'wherever I can get them'. One project often involves orders from 4 or 5 companies around the world - this stuff is not easy to just do. It took me a good few years to feel confident enough in my building skills to be able to sell the things, I will feel sad if I have to give it up because it is no longer financially viable.

If import duty and taxation is going to disappear from imports from the US and elsewhere in the world then that would certainly offset the loss in value of the £. Have a look over the last 10 years on XE - the £$ has lost 30cents since Brexit. That's a massive generalisation, but it's about right and for people like me this is a huge problem.

When will Brexit pay me back for all the losses over the last two years? And how? (this is a rhetorical question I know no one can really answer this!)
