There are 72 million border crossings annually between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. This includes 15% or more in agricultural products, including shipments of milk back and forth for processing, packaging and distribution. It also includes shipments of live animals. Brexit will require a hard border, resulting in delays year round. This is from an article I read over the weekend but I don't remember where.

Like trump and republicans, the brexiteers lied to the British people on a fantastically grand scale.
