Political relations between UK-EU

It’s worse than I thought then.

They’ve put that there and it’s not even in relation to the story.
Try reading nearly any article on nearly any website and see how often you see links to related stories.
Then try reading an article properly before calling it disingenuous.
 
Has anyone genuinely experienced this, as the article suggests?

I am not saying this isn’t happening but I’ve been in Aldi, Sainsbury’s, Morrison’s, Tesco etc. all since January 1st and not a single time have I witnessed empty shelves or fruit/veg baskets.

I would say it's a regular occurrence in my local Co-op, but I think that's a combination of Covid and having comically inept staff.
 
Well showing empty supermarket baskets/shelves suggests a food crisis.

It suggests a shortage not a crisis and nor will there be a crisis since the UK is not imposing customs checks on imports from the EU until June, and probably not even then.

The EU imposed customs checks from Jan 1st, the UK didn’t as it doesn’t have the capacity to do so. There is some leniency on the EU side as UK firms have 12 months to collate and present export data, including product origin, to prove they are eligible for tariff exemptions.
 
Times Radio...not a huge surprise.

A very grumpy British government agrees to the EU’s formal request to delay its ratification of the Brexit trade deal until April 30. One to watch closely. If NI Protocol talks turn bad, might the EU play hardball and refuse to ratify at all?‘
