“Liz Truss, the UK’s international trade secretary, privately raised deep concerns about Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s Brexit border plans in a letter leaked to Business Insider.
Truss said the plans could create a series of logistical, political, and reputational risks for the government, including:
A legal challenge from the World Trade Organisation.
Increased smuggling from the EU if not all UK ports are ready to carry out checks.
Concerns over the union if EU tariffs are applied to all goods heading to Northern Ireland by “default.”
The undermining of the UK’s international trade policy.”
