    But there’s literally no benefit to anyone to inventing a whole new UK set of standards to replace the CE mark. It’s just so a bunch of rabid Brexiteers can claim some benefit. The only “benefit” is that we might lose safety standards. There’s nothing in Brexit for actual people.

      Agreed, CE isn’t about standards though. It’s just a mark to say it complies with EU regulations. An item can still be of poor quality yet be compliant with all EU regs.

      The UKCA nonsense to replicate this is just more proof of how inept the Tories are.

      We already have actual standards like the BSI kitemark, it’s a quality mark.

      As is the ISO. https://www.iso.org/home.html
