British and Irish Writers Condemn No-Deal Brexit - Publishers Weekly

Panzer was tootling around in the Catosphere when he heard crying and gnashing of teeth. Following all the noise took our brave kitty boy to the Publishers Weekly site. There he found a post about British and Irish writers and Brexit.

According to Neill Denny, British and Irish writers' organizations, The Society of Authors and The Irish Writers' Union, have sent a statement about negotiations for Brexit. The joint statement stresses an agreement about how publishing and books will be distributed between the two countries needs to be negotiated before Brexit is finalized between the UK and the EU. According to the groups if this isn't achieved the consequences will be disastrous for England and Ireland. Both would see consequences in the sale and trade of books between the two countries in the form of tariffs and border control problems.

This is a mess for everybody.
Panzer says, "There's a lot more to the exit negotiations than a pat on the head and a don't let the door hit your backside on the way out."

Note: This is a long-medium length post. Bring a cup of tea and a muffin for today's reading selection.
