Brexit Sonnet No. 80 – ‘Just call your EU Man!’

So now we have it, maximum facilitation,
Or our customs trusted trader scheme,
Is to cost no little aggregation,
In fact, more than did we ever dream.
Some twenty billion every year gone west,
So we can DIY our trading terms.
Now DIY is often just the best,
When fiscal doom and gloom tops your concerns.
But when the job’s just too damn hard for me,
And my cost at B&Q is just too great,
Drop I my plan and o’er cup of tea,
Decide to call my lifelong tradesman mate.
So sup your tea and drop this Brexit Plan,
Max Fac’s no good? Just call your EU man!
