“The U.K. is differentiating itself from Germany and France, and to some extent, even the U.S. That comes out of Brexit, and the sense that we have to define ourselves as an independent middle power.”

“It turns out our greatest competitor on the planet is the UK government because every time they do a fantastic deal, they kick us out of that market - starting with the Brexit deal. The post-Brexit EU trade deal as the biggest disaster that any government has ever negotiated in the history of trade negotiations.”

“After nine months, the impact of Brexit on the profile of Dublin Port's trade has become clear. The movement of Irish trade to EU markets and away from the UK has also had the effect of reducing the number of trailers that move through Dublin Port which are driver-accompanied.”

“Australia was not in such a bad position prior to the pandemic when you compare Australia with England and the United States. Both of those societies were seriously fractured prior to the pandemic. Brexit sharply divided England, as did Donald Trump in the United States. There have been times when Australia has been much more fractious – under the leadership of Tony Abbott as opposed to the leadership of Scott Morrison, and I think Anthony Albanese can struggle to position himself but he is basically a consensus figure. This made it possible for Australia to respond to the pandemic quickly and in a cohesive way. To me this is the key point: we possibly undervalue the good things about Australia and how Australians will respond in a crisis. This, for me, is a really big takeaway and it’s important because it is probably not acknowledged. What we get in the media is the cut and thrust of politics rather than the long-term fundamental understanding of what works in Australia and what doesn’t work.”

“EU legislation on the environment has been quite robust, on things like the birds directive and the habitats directive. But in the first few days of January, we have seen our government ship our problematic unsorted plastic waste around the world to countries who don’t have the capacity to deal with it. [He compared the practice to someone from a] posh neighbourhood chucking your rubbish into the garden of someone from the not-so-well-off neighbourhood next door and forgetting about it. Frankly, it’s irresponsible and embarrassing when we have the capacity and technology to deal with it, if only we put in the resources.”

“Again, I don’t want to either meddle in British domestic politics nor judge the way British people have been informed or prepared for Brexit. The only thing I said is that a lot of the consequences of Brexit, which are numerous and serious, have been underestimated and often badly explained. I regretted that British people did not have more ambition on mobility between us. We have made proposals in the draft treaty. We had proposed rather ambitious measures in regards to mobility for journalists, artists, musicians and others. But we must be two to conclude an agreement.”

“If you import goods into the U.K. from China for example and then export them onto Ireland, they're not eligible for the zero rate of tariffs under the agreement. You have to pay the tariff for coming into the U.K. from China, and then also paying the tariff to get to Ireland. Clearly, there are questions raised as to whether these companies’ operations can work under the new deal. It seems to me that probably they can't.”

“For 48 years, the United Kingdom really has been a central part of the European Union. And that is now firmly ending with the end of the transition period … For all of us in Ireland, that is not something to celebrate. Our relationship with the United Kingdom is so close, so integrated, so interwoven, if you like, politically, economically and from a family perspective. My own personal story is so shaped by the Anglo-Irish relationship, and that’s the same for so many other Irish people, so we’re seeing the United Kingdom moving in a different direction on its own, chasing some notion of trying to re-find its sovereignty and … that is something that we regret but, of course, we accept because it was a democratic decision.”

“Businesses will need to make sure that they’re ready for new customs procedures and we as individuals will need to make sure that our passports are up to date because they need to have at least six months before expiry on them in order to be able to travel abroad. I’m sure there will be bumpy moments but we are there in order to try to do everything we can to smooth the path.”
