Jan. 24 (UPI) -- British Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Friday signed the country's European Union withdrawal agreement, putting the country on the path for a full Brexit by the end of the month.

The Conservative leader hailed it as a "fantastic moment" for Britain.

"We can now move forward as one country -- with a government focused upon delivering better public services, greater opportunity and unleashing the potential of every corner of our brilliant United Kingdom, while building a strong new relationship with the EU as friends and sovereign equals," he said.

Revealed: complex post-Brexit checks for Northern Irish traders
Transport and manufacturing heads criticise paperwork needed to trade with GB

The “straightforward” document that Northern Irish businesses will need to complete to send goods to Great Britain after Brexit is a complex form that includes 31 data elements, it can be revealed.

The Freight Transport Association has raised concerns that hauliers could be fined if they get elements of the “exit summary declaration” wrong, and is calling on the EU and the UK to remove it during their negotiations.

The FTA’s head of European policy, Pauline Bastidon, said: “There are up to 31 data elements in an exit summary declaration required to take goods out of the EU now and post-Brexit (ie out of Northern Ireland) when the mode is road freight. Only two of these are optional, meaning 29 data elements are mandatory.

So, is not Northern Ireland still a part of Great Britain? UK? Anyway, off we go.

Brexit: UK to quit EU at 23:00 GMT, as PM promises 'new dawn'
The UK will leave the EU at 23:00 GMT, ending 47 years of membership.
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-51315772

For my one vote, I probably would have voted leave but I'm not really enthralled on the matter.

I do think Boris Johnson seems to be a very good leader and man.

Sounds like they will BREXIT at 11PM UK Time. So, only about 10 hours away? I'm thinking.
