For a long time, it was seemingly the subject of discussion that we most loved to hate – at least until the COVID-19 pandemic came along. But the fact remains that no small or medium-sized firm in the UK that trades – or wishes to trade – with Europe can ignore the ‘B’ word, Brexit, or overlook the considerable impact it has had on British business.
