Yet Another Brexit Disaster – ‘Not For Eu’ Labelling
Originally only those selling produce to Northern Ireland (that would only be sold in Northern Ireland) would be required labelling ‘Not for EU’.
But now Sunak has done a deal such that all UK producers will be required to label produce ‘Not for EU’, even though they don’t sell anything into Northern Ireland.
So soon our supermarket shelves will be full of British produce, labelled ‘Not for EU’ alongside produce from such places as Spain, Portugal, France, Italy etc with no such labelling.
A recent poll has shown that 20% of UK shoppers would be less likely to buy produce labelled ‘Not for EU’.
As ever my mate Phil gives the lowdown on this latest Brexit disaster:-

I never buy EU pork as a matter of principle - having seem some of the hideous concentration camps and lived not far from an abbatoir in France. Carcasses lying about in the sun for hours anyone?

Instead of these so-called Brexit disasters what about a few EU disasters ?
I'll start with Schengen - do I need spell out the scale which that has had on the European continent (illegal immigrants & terrorists wandering about at large etc.)
Then the Euro which thankfully the UK just avoided, but would be a requirement if Britain was mad enough to re-join which makes interest-rate adjustments by individual countries impossible, so this form of recovery is lost. Interest rates for all of Euroland are controlled by the European Central Bank and does not allow countries to devalue their currency in an economic downturn by adjusting their exchange rate.
I could go on !
