Conor:
If we leave with no deal the paperwork is nothing new, it’ll be the same as it is for the >50% of exports from the UK that don’t go to the EU and that the UK has required from non-EU imports for the last 30 years.
What you’re all saying is that you’re worse drivers than the flip flops who come to where I’m at to pick up loads going for export. Not only do most of them not speak a single word of english and we even had a Russian in last week, they can stamp and sign all the notes in seconds.
If they can manage to figure out the paperwork and make sure it’s right in a country they don’t live in or speak the language why can’t you work it out?
They only need one piece of paperwork, which is the same around Europe, and in three languages (well it was the last time I used one).
Let’s see how the ‘flipflops’ cope when the new rules start, with unfamiliar paperwork, and how they deal with needing to stop in the Midlands to book in for the ferry…

Your trying to tell a Legend how to do it, that never ends well… 
If you read Connor’s post he is referring to non EU exports not EU exports so the paperwork is not just a straightforward CMR.
Most of the UK non EU exports won’t be going out on trucks.
Services, crude oil, cars, don’t go by road.
Exports to the USA, Australia etc will go by container, or bulk ship, or whatever.
Those routes do have a well established bureaucracy already. Smaller companies doing smaller exports to the EU don’t.
I remember doing groupage exports and imports, in the 80’s and 90’s. The newer T2s were quick compared with what went before, but relied on the close ties we had with the then E.C.
There is now the possibility of APR etc, but all data for every part of a groupage load has to be entered into the system by clerks.
Currently there isn’t a working system nor the personnel to handle the millions of new documents that will need to be raised.

Brexit won’t happen so the discussion is moot. Klaus Schwab and his cronies will make sure of that.
This is why I’m glad our firm ‘only’ has a National O-licence [emoji6][emoji1]
