Assume this is tongue in cheekSorry, but it,s a fantastic night, fireworks in brizzle, the landscape is filled with milk and honey.
I voted remain but always said I would back Leave if a proper case could be brought forwards. Nearly 4 years and still waiting.
At least now Leave have to own the outcome. Let's hope they were right and I was wrong
They will blame 'those bloody foreigners' for not giving us a better trading deal with the EU when we are out of it than when we were in it. I can guarantee it.Sadly I don't think they will own it if it goes wrong, it will be everything else's fault.
And, it begins .....

“Government will need to move fast if it intends to provide the necessary infrastructure to carry out full border controls on imported goods from January 2021, " said Andrew Opie, the British Retail Consortium's director of food and sustainability.Unsurprisingly announced with a whimper and buried as quickly as possible: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-51453189
Wonder who they will try to blame for this
What on Earth are you talking about? ?Great news! No Avocado`s !! ? ?
Think of the Carbon saving from not shipping in food from half way around the planet.............. can`t have it both ways.
And, from the same article.................. "Preparation can help alleviate some of that hit, but not all. "
What on Earth are you talking about? ?
You are really going down the route of saying there are positives to food shortages?If we (the consumer) consume a greater % of UK produced, seasonal foods there are lower freight miles so lower carbon emissions.......... and no avocado`s. ?
We import , roughly, 50% of what we "buy to eat".............balance that out with 6.6 million tonnes of food waste (stuff we "bought to eat") .......... if there was a shortage of food we (the consumer) would value it more, and there would be less waste.
On one side of the equation people may see it as "bad" but on the other "good".
You are really going down the route of saying there are positives to food shortages?
Food shortages and making better food choices aren't the same thing. And if food prices go up due to shortages, who do you think is going to take the biggest hit from that?Yes, absolutely because over a long period of time we have lost contact with the "value" of food and its production.
Lots of people purely look at "price" rather than the wider view.
Do they care if their £2.99 sandwich "on the go" is made of UK, high welfare, low mileage chicken or imported (cheap) frozen chicken from Thailand?
We have several generations that have wanted for nothing and not cared where it comes from...... is turning that "consumerist cult" around a bad thing?
I won`t lose any sleep if there aren`t any avocado`s to be bought!
