Pre- “EU” (except it wasn’t called the EU then) it took over 200 distinct endorsements (in those days they took the form of actual pieces of paper) to transport a 40ft cargo container by road from England to Italy. Before brexit it took 2 (both electronic now but comparable with the paper process before).
Today we’re back up to 16.
What a waste of everyone’s time.
