The Labour Government

[Alan Harper's Tash]

The irony that these deals with India and America wouldn’t have been possible without Brexit isn’t lost on Brexit voters. Really looking forward to my bison burgers…

Indeed, we’d have got better deals inside the EU, but we have to deal with the hand we have as a result.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Surely identity politics is just an issue it it is right wing people doing it?

Dull. You need new material.

 

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

Dull. You need new material.

No. It seems the left, or what passes for the left do.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

No. It seems the left do.

I’ll stand by my comment, you bore me.

 

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

I’ll stand by my comment, you bore me.

Not an issue.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Not an issue.

Agreed.

I guess the devil will be in the detail, but if we are letting US beef and chicken in, I hope someone is able to explain how food that wasn't deemed safe yesterday is safe today.

Don’t buy it! Make the market decide.

That’s what I’ll continue to do. Supermarket beef is already inferior to butcher’s beef.

500g of minced beef is around 60p dearer for me in the butchers, but it’s worth the difference.

Diced shin beef is also far better than the unmarked diced beef too.

Night and day.

as ever the BBC backs the UK Govt - is Mason even aware the Tories lost?

But his point was true in that we are still in a worse position than 2 months ago.

The factory farms here are a friggin nightmare…both cows and chickens.

I wasn’t talking about this forum, I was talking more generally. I don’t think they are being judged like previous governments were at all, the landscape of social media has changed so much (and some of the legacy media as a consequence) in just a few years and so have voters habits.

People see what they want to see, if you want to see how bias can affect one's judgement then check out the match day thread

It's just the way it is, people generally search out the media that agrees with their world view and/or their prejudices.

He seems pretty okeyish with us walking away from EU.

 

[inbetween]

Interesting that they're ramping up production because what are they producing and who for? Weren't they going bust because producing steel was unviable so what has changed?

Assuming it's to do with security then it's great for the defence industry and their profits, cheaper steel paid for by the government!

Should we be letting the market decide when it comes to food safety? Why have any controls at all?

I won't be buying it until someone answers the question I asked before. Why was it unsafe yesterday, but safe now.

I agree. Doesn’t change the initial point though, media has changed significantly and there is a new normal now in how information is consumed and consequently voter habits.

Started using a local butcher for chicken when I moved recently.

Couple of quid more but it's the size of an Emu, tastes wayyyyy better and last me ALL week.

 

[blueinsa]

Didn’t take long for some to get over chlorinated chicken and hormone injected beef I see ;-)

 

[Earlyriser]

I'm fairly certain the Supermarkets will import the chicken beef etc and have it re-packaged like The Red Tractor con at Tesco. Will then sell it at an attractive price to con the gullible
