The Conservative Party

They aren’t managing just fine though. That one member state, who is also an island this geographically similar to UK, are struggling with the same issues of lack lf supply in fresh fruit and veg.

Brexit ultras? Have a word with yourself. You love a bit of hyperbole.

Again, I return to the question. How is Brexit making it easier to manage the shortage of produce? Has Brexit improved our food security? Can Brexit improve our food security?

The problem Brexit supporters and voters have is part perception and part reality.

Before Brexit, were Supermarkets rationing fruit and veg? No. Are Supermarkets rationing fruit and veg now? Yes.

Before Brexit were Govt ministers urging me to eat turnips and were the media telling me I am spoilt and that my granny thought a fresh orange was a treat? No. Are these things being said to me now? Yes.

Arguing how much Brexit plays a part is irrelevant. What is relevant is that Brexit in no way shape or form seems to help the situation or indeed any situation.

The question then becomes - what is the point of Brexit if it provides zero benefit?

You’re asking a question I wasn’t answering. I merely disputed that the current shortage of fresh produce is caused by Brexit. It isn’t.

Your post is flimsy at best, intellectually dishonest even, in that it asks “did I have fruit and veg rationing before Brexit? No, since? Yes” whilst ignoring Brexit occurred some years ago now without fruit and veg issues and further dismissing that it is necessary to prove Brexit is the primary cause for this rationing.

I can see where Brexit is an issue and even a barrier to a possible solution. I’m just not blinkered enough to blame everything on Brexit.
