"The lorry blocked the road. And the corrugated iron blocked the road. And a thirty-foot-high pile of fish blocked the road. It was one of the most effectively blocked roads the sergeant had ever seen."

At this point, “free trade” just means the cargo is free to sit offshore indefinitely while insurance companies discover exciting new numbers.

The global supply chain is no longer a chain. It is a series of heavily armed queues.

Very efficient. Very resilient. Just in time, provided “time” is an abstract concept and “just” has been permanently suspended.
