Food Shortages.
"The British Retail Consortium" Which represents all the major food and retail chains in the UK.
Has said it expects to see food shortages and more empty shelves by the end of this week.
This is no longer about... will Christmas be OK ......It's about keeping the wheels turning and the lights on so we can get to Christmas..... Come on Boris ... time to step in. Before there is a winter of discontent under your leadership.

Its not a case of disagreeing or agreeing with gully, its looking at the facts. As someone who normally sells product to the EU, I personally am hitting brick walls trying to trade with the EU. They are making a scapegoat of the UK in a vain attempt to try and stop other Nations from thinking about coming out. Boris did not make good deals and God knows he had plenty...

We have had shortages since December last year and it is getting worse.
In Tesco on Sunday barely any frozen veg, Cat food and Dog food only half the range available.
Specialist Catfood we have been warned that this will reduce availability again so am currently building stock of this too.
Its getting worse not better and if this winter is like last we will struggle with fire wood and coal too.

I don't understand why some on here proclaim there are no shortages in the shops unless they do click and collect, or delivery, so never go in one. On the surface there are no empty shelves but on close inspection they are putting what they do have over many more shelves, so they look full. The other day in Aldi they had five large freezers of frozen chips but hardly any frozen veg and very few pizzas
Northern Ireland I can understand because that part of the UK has been cut adrift by the disgusting "Northern Ireland Protocol.".
I don't know about the North East but there are no real shortages where I live. The odd gap here and there - bottled water seems the worst hit. But nothing that particularly bothers me. Plenty of fresh fruit and veg, frozen stuff widely available. This problem may actually be a blessing in disguise. The big supermarkets carry a ridiculously high number of lines and it may concentrate their minds. For example, my local Tesco's must have around twenty or even more varieties of loaf available. They need three - white, brown and wholemeal. They do bread with cheese in it, thin sliced, medium sliced, thick sliced, bloomers, French sticks, "tiger" loaves (don't ask because I don't know). Just gone to their website for a check. Searched "Bread":
Options: White bread; brown bread; wholemeal bread; half and half bread (what?).
White bread - 40 options.
Seeded bread - 18 options.
Utterly ridiculous.

I wonder if some people have ever been without anything in their entire lives - perhaps communism is the answer?
