0h, lovely, thank you. as unemployment has fallen, tourism has been increasingly reliant on eu workers. they've filled almost half of all vacancies over the last three years. this industry reckons it's going to need a million new staff by 2024. the big question is, where are all these workers going to come from? the ambition is to provide training for chefs, and caterers. in this region they are hoping to fill the gaps with home—grown talent. this local landmark is being turned into one of the uk's first hotel training schools. what's at stake is the future of the industry. i think, if we don't start to train the future workforce, if we don't get more people involved in this industry, then there is a part of the economy that is at risk. alas, poor yorick! we've had plenty of drama since the referendum. tourism now wants a smooth transition to the next act.

there isn't any delay to food coming in from other parts of the country on wto terms. but we import a lot more from the eu. we do, but it's as equally in the eu's interest to make sure there is fluidity and frictionless trade with britain. all this coverage seems to suggest it is down to how we might behave. clearly there is an onus on the eu to create frictionless trade in any scenario, otherwise they will not be selling as any other food or goods in an easy way. and as they sell us more than we sold them, presumably it is in their interest to sell us as much as possible and continue to. moving on to macron and other member states rolling in on this, ifind interesting the coverage seems to be on what we can do. it is also in the eu's interest the sell is as much as possible as we move forward in any trade relationship, whether it be wto free—trade. trade relationship, whether it be wto free-trade. i
