An interesting report out today from the Centre for Economic Performance, linked to the London School of Economics, found the negative impact Brexit had on UK trade may have been softened by big firms adapting to EU barriers. But as we know SMEs have been hardest hit. lnkd.in/eerzxmfN

Yesterday the EU escalated its dispute against Colombia at the WTO on frozen fries, saying Colombia didn’t comply with an earlier ruling faulting its anti-dumping duties on imports of frozen fries from Belgium, Netherlands & Germany. The WTO will form a panel to adjudicate the dispute. #Trade

Running is a perfect opportunity to catch up on podcast. I pretty much exclusively listen to Boxing podcasts and this is bar far one of the best, Boxing Life Stories with Tris Dixon. This week with boxing attorney and manger Kurt Emhoff, a fascinating listen, highly recommend.

When you pick a pack of Freddo"s at late 90s early 2000s prices, 5 bars for 4 Zloty that's around 78p or 15.6p per bar. As an expat, this is a huge chocolate win. How much is a Freddo in the UK these day? #winning

This is an intresting story, research by DHL reveals that ‘unaligned’ countries that are neither close allies of the US or China are conducting a growing share of world trade, developing new roles as connecting economies bridging geopolitical rivals #globaltrade postandparcel.info/157751/news/...
