The latest actions of deranged Russian dictator Putin are tearing apart the world as we know it.
I'm deeply moved by the courage of the Ukrainian people and everyone who is on their side in this fight against evil.
Calling out to everyone to help in any way they can. Please visit supportukrainenow.org to see how you can help.
My thoughts are with anyone affected by this outrageous attack on human kind.
This is not just about Ukraine. This is about freedom, humanity and a better future.
Inform yourself
Almost a decade of large scale misinformation staged mainly by the Russian government has been shaping public opinion worldwide.
Try to follow Ukrainian news directly rather than what your local news media is showing as it is more likely to be accurate and detailed.
I consider the following news sources trustworthy:
It seems there's a lot of fuss about sending packages to the UK nowadays. Most of my shipments are worldwide and come with the required documents, I've never heard of any issues, so I don't see why UK would be a problem.
However after spending many hours reading the (plethora of) new rules and registering myself with UK customs, I'm still not really sure exactly what rules apply to me. As I'm a small business, I work under different VAT rules compared to normal businesses, so I am guessing all the crazy administration work does not apply and I'll just handle it like any other outside EU order - fingers crossed -.
I haven't received any orders from UK this year yet, so I can't say. You're welcome to try for yourself however, keeping in mind that some sort of customs delay is possible, and additional fees will most definately apply.
Sidenote: if you voted pro-Brexit, I hope you're happy now..
