I think you have to remember during the referendum campaign, any mention of trading issues after brexit was bashed down with the word ' scaremongering', this ultimately impacted how trading issues were communicated to businesses.....it is interesting to see 'scaremongering' isn't used by politicians as much now as some of those previous concerns has become reality.

I agree with Andy. For the last week we have been given a podcast less than 30 minutes from the previous 40+ minutes. We now get stupidly loud sound effects and a new icon. Is this an improvement? No way.
