How do we resolve the Brexit mess?

[Bodicoteblue]

ah but are you confident you can improve that relationship over time by negotiating with them?

I’m attempting to make wonderful deals with each separate toe but so far the little piggy that went to market ( the single one, obviously) is proving difficult and I can see trouble ahead with the little piggy who has roast beef.
I may end up having to cry wee,wee,wee all the way home.

The little weasal looks and sounds like he's never spent a day in the real world. (Bowie, in case you're wondering..)

Embarrassing ****.

Embarrassing ****.

He is like Zahawi - a clock work minister you can just wind up and send out to speak utter bollocks and have zero shame in doing it

 

[bluethrunthru]

Just realised - what we need is a passport to Pimlico moment where someone discovers a never repealed law stating the UK is in fact part of France - could be our best chance

You know he is talking out of his arse but when he throws in the word ‘prognosis’ then you know that even he thinks we’re doomed.

Read to the end of this BBC piece and even they hint that Brexit is affecting food security concerns

UK sleepwalking into food supply crisis, says farming union

Yields of tomatoes and other crops are set to hit a record low as farmers struggle with surging costs.

Hint? It's explicit, as Brexit means we haven't got enough seasonal workers to pick British produce. Brexit means we grow less here and import more from the EU.

From the NFU:

Our key asks:

• We need an urgent investigation by Defra into whether an “exceptional market conditions” declaration should be made under the Agriculture Act 2020, given the severe disruption which egg producers and UK consumers are experiencing.
• Back in early 2021, the government announced it would regulate dairy contracts to enable fairer terms for dairy farmers, but this still hasn’t happened. We need the government to progress with their plans to bring fairness in the dairy sector.
• Fruit and veg growers need fair treatment and confidence to invest and a commitment from government to lift the cap on the seasonal worker scheme to increase the number of visas available to meet the sector’s essential workforce needs
• British food and farming needs to be a political priority. Promises made by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, in August 2022, need to be delivered, in particular: by establishing a new food security target, including a statutory duty to monitor and report on domestic food production levels annually, to hold a UK-wide annual food security summit and introduce a new target for public sector organisations to buy 50% of their food locally.
• Agriculture and horticulture must be seen as a vulnerable sector in regard to energy security.

It was all going to be so fucking straightforward.

He's just the latest in a long line of Tory knownothings that have headed that department, granted this spotty Herbert looks spectacularly inept.

Got to say it’s a special gift of this particular shite government to continuously find somebody worse than their predecessor.

I worked with that department for over ten years, they've got some good people on the ground, but they're utterly demoralised. It's a backwater department, usually run by nobodies or geriatrics, that child must be particularly useless.

I was in export sales for 35 years, it takes years to establish a market and no time to lose it. There's very few unique things we produce that customers cannot find elsewhere.

The thing about sales is you make the sale or you don't, no weasel words can bridge that gap, political bullshit isn't going to magic up those lost markets

Bit harsh on @gordondaviesmoustache, he only spends mornings and evenings in Spoons.

Corrected for you.

He is trying to get the 'red wall' back onside.

Of course he is. But it’s still dishonest
