It may? It absolutely will because no one in Europe is gonna go out on a limb to trust UK accreditation services administered under a Tory party of "austerity but also incompetence to an absurdist degree."

Rupert murdoch did a number on the entire English speaking world really This is all true of course, but I think it's partly down to local nationalism driven insanity naturally has very little import among people of other nations. Even other people's conservatives.

The UK staying in the EU would be interesting as well, though. Like a drunk family member returning to the Christmas party after calling everyone names and walking out.

there are also some other auxiliaries that can be used for solid cargo in a pinch but require things like helicopters and amphibious assault craft to load/unload

Isn't the problem delays due to customs on either side, and not the actual crossing itself? How will more ships help with that? Even if the problem is that the trucks are stuck on ships because there is no room for them to offload due to delays in customs, extra ships just means you have a floating parking lot.

Well it does say he's invoking Dunkirk spirit, which was "oh poo poo the Germans are coming! RUN AWAY!", so maybe the Navy are going to be used to evacuate terrified British expats and ship them back to good ol' Blighty.
