Travelling after Brexit

Dont knock it , it does say

"The export of Cornish goods could start as early as next month."

this would be a great result for the Cornish fishing industry, and maybe some parts of agriculture would benefit ?

"Mr German added that there had long been discussions about a passenger ferry link between Cornwall and Brittany, and this now looked more likely, but it was a “step for the future”."

so maybe not for  holidays makers just yet, but best to think positive

I think the key word is 'could'.

The issue is both simple, we are now outside the EU, and they will likely not change their rules on imports of 'uncleaned' shellfish for the UK, and complicated with claim and counter claim regarding who knew what and, what can be done.

It is to be hoped that some way can be found to enable the exports to resume but, amidst all of this one thing is clear-there is absolutely no apparent need for a direct ferry link with France.

BF run out of Plymouth and the only thing that would, to me, seem even a faint possibility would be additional sailings from there.
