Ngolwesithathu 25th Ephreli, UTom Jenkins, oyi-CEO, i-ETOA, inhlangano yezokuvakasha yaseYurophu, unikeze ubufakazi eKomidini LePhalamende LaseYurophu Lezokuthutha Nezokuvakasha.
Esitatimendeni sokuvula sokulalelwa kwecala lomthelela we-Brexit, ufanise i-Brexit ne-Chimera, isilwane esiyingxubevange esiyinganekwane manje esifanekisela umbono omangalisayo.
I-Brexit yayiwumbono onjalo. Sekuvele kunomthelela omubi kubantu abasebenza embonini yezokuvakasha e-EU. E-UK, amabhizinisi amaningi asevele azabalaza ukuqasha nokugcina abasebenzi abavela e-Continental Europe njengoba isicelo sokuza emsebenzini e-UK sasincipha. Lokho kuyinkinga ezinkampanini ezizinze e-UK futhi kuyisithiyo emisebenzini yabantu abasha abahlala e-EU nase-UK.
Kuphinde kube nenkinga ezinkampanini zase-UK ezisebenzisa iziqondiso nabameleli e-Europe: isimo sazo sokuqashwa (kanye nendlela yazo yokuziphilisa) manje sisengozini.
Enye inkinga yobuchwepheshe ukusetshenziswa kwe-VAT. Ngaphansi kombuso wamanje, owaziwa ngokuthi i-Tour Operators Margin Scheme noma i-TOMS, izinkampani ezizinze e-EU akudingeki zibhalise futhi ziphendule nge-VAT ezweni ngalinye elihlukile ezisebenza kulo. Kuyisilungiselelo esisindisa izinkampani eziningi zokuphatha izimali. UTom Jenkins uthe kufanele iqhubeke nokutholakala ngemuva kwe-Brexit ezinkampanini ezizinze e-UK eziletha izivakashi e-EU kanye nezinkampani ezizinze e-EU eziletha izivakashi e-UK.
UTom Jenkins wathi: “Amalungu ethu athengisa iYurophu iyonke, futhi ngokwenza kanjalo, athengisa i-European Service Economy. Noma yini enezela imithwalo yokuphatha nezindleko iyingozi. Uma i-UK ihlotshaniswa kancane ne-Europe, kuncane ukukhanga kwe-Europe futhi okuphambene nalokho. Inkululeko emine (yezimpahla, izinsizakalo, abasebenzi kanye nezimali) ibalulekile emabhizinisini ezokuvakasha. Singahlangabezana nesidingo noma kuphi lapho sivela khona futhi sithole umkhiqizo noma kuphi lapho ukhona. Lokhu kwandisa ububanzi bebhizinisi futhi kucebisa ukukhetha kubathengi. Akekho ofuna ukuthobela izimiso ezimbili ezahlukene. Uma indlela elula yokuhweba iwukusungula amahhovisi e-UK nase-Continental Europe, izinkampani zizokwenza lokho. Lokhu kusho ukwanda komthwalo wokuphatha.”
Imithetho yamanje ye-EU ayiphelele neze. Izinguquko zakamuva ku-Package Travel Directive zamukelekile kodwa seziphelelwe yisikhathi. “Izingxoxo kumele ziqale ngokushesha ku-PTD3,” kunxusa uJenkins.
Esephetha, u-Tom Jenkins ukhiphe isikhalo kubaxoxisana be-Brexit nhlangothi zombili: “Yenzani konke okusemandleni enu ukugcina isimo sikhona futhi nifike kulowo mphumela ngokushesha. Kuzizuzisa zombili izinhlangothi. Ukuzithokozisa kuzwelonke kungase kube uDeus ex Machina odingwa yilesi simo.”
