Brexit and leaving India

Subject: Brexit and leaving India.

"Individuals were caught between the pull of two opposed forces. All this taking place just at a time when social uncertainty the loss of trained manpower and the lack of remorse was testing the administration". This was the description of events and the constraints at the time of the 'Partition of India' and it seems to me to echo the position we ourselves find ourselves in as we slide to a no deal Brexit.
Listening to politicians and listening to business people on the ground, having to work out how to do the job their business depends on is as if the two groups were living on different planets. The assurances that the government has in place contingency plans rings hollow when the hauliers and the people who trade into Europe are asked about the specifics of their business. Even the Ministry of  Trade and Commerce, the body who should be across all or most of the issues had no advice for the businessmen interviewed other than transfer your business to Europe. 
We have a gung ho Prime Minister who has an aversion to details, striding around the capitals of Europe playing the role of some Shakespearian character he learnt whilst at Oxford, a character set in a time 200 years ago when the nation was largely comprised of agricultural workers and could look with contempt at those across the Channel. Today those damn Europeans are our coworkers the people who are passing the next bit of machinery for us to do our bit before passing it on to someone else to sell. The intricacy of the supply chain and the paper trail of each component makes it virtually impossible, without spilling a lot of blood as we found when we left India.
