Thats the new high tech customs clearing area that is going to handle all of the JIT delivery traffic from the continent.

Isn't one of the benefits of Brexit being able to set whatever customs rules we like?

So if we find that inbound deliveries are too slow we can just relax restrictions until they're not.

Wouldn't it be ironic if we did that, and Brexit delivered the UK illegal immigrants by the lorry load?

There will be a deal. Boris and Co know they won't recover from no deal politically. It would be a catastrophy for them. It will be a mess anyway but less of a mess. And there will no doubt be a small extension of some sort to sort red tape.
