United Kingdom Prime Minister Boris Johnson has told farmers the sector can be more profitable and productive – now that it is free of the “shackles” of the EU’s common agricultural policy.
He was addressing the annual meeting of country’s National Farmers’ Union – its first since the end of the Brexit transition period.
Agricultural organisations have warned some sectors are in crisis, due to the twin challenges of Brexit and coronavirus.
Al Jazeera’s Nadim Baba reports on how some farmers are worried.

#Brexit #UKfarmers #AljazeeraEnglish
I want my chlorinated chicken!!
You’ll have to a wait a little bit. Biden is not interested in the UK deal this early in his term.
Many thanks for your email
The British wanted their borders back and so they have it. Stop complaining and get on with
@Mark Hawkins The will of the people is irrelevant in the “United” Kingdom. Your Queen signed off on it.
OBEY YOUR MONARCH LOWLY SUBJECT!
@WildBill22360. You’ve got what you wanted. Brexit is Brexit. Stop quibbling!
Exactly.
@WildBill22360 And what about countries who openly refused to take ANY refugees unless they show papers. No illegals in Poland!
Also, you’ve never been part of schengen, you have all the rights to control stop and reverse all.
Guess who imported all those immigrants on your lawn for past 10 years. Yes, same people you keep defending.
And you’ll keep defending them, like an idiot. Hope you have A LOT of cash saved up to save your life once NHS is sold out to US companies and charge you 100k for basic life saving procedure.
When you fail to realise that they have cherry picked a farmer who “worries”
They should be concerned, Brexit is to the benefit of the financial world. In freedom, EU rules are deregulated and the American model is approximated. Citizens will fall victim to more and harder exploitation. It is incredible how right-wing parties continues to trick voters into believing something that comes from that side of the political spectrum will benefit the working people. But apparently, voters get dumber over time, not wiser.
@Jim Allen
Ity doesn’t work to decide everything based on costs. This leads to short-termism and caused the UK to be in this mess.
Also, a government’s policies should also focus on the provision of basic supplies needed for life – such as food.
What “control” do you have over your life if you get all your food from 3rd countries who sell to the highest bidder, can impose export bans any time ( like the US did for vaccines), and can change their health and environmental standards as they like.
Brexiters have been had. End of.
Yep 7000 jobs lost to the EU, along with euro clearing and some US dollar clearing
@der_ radierer I agree – that was my point. Businesses go to the lowest cost in this worldwide “race to the bottom” that we’re in. Should it be that way? No. There needs to be some core domestic production for the basic reason that your citizens need employment. A lot of economic models are just BS – actually – they are what they are – models. But that doesn’t mean that you cut off your nose to spite your face. I live in the States – I read a story last year about a steel mill that was thriving based on higher tariffs and down the road from them was a manufacturer about to go under because of the steel tariffs. Stop making multinationals rich at the expense of your own jobs.
This was the whole point of Brexit: taking back control for a comparatively small group of people, and loss of control, security and protection for everyone else. The “opportunities” are for the disaster capitalists who will now buy out the bankrupt farmers and businesses, and re-employ their staff on much worse conditions than before.
Brexiters keep saying they knew what they voted for so I guess it’s what they wanted…
@Andy in Germany No disagreement from me – we’re doing this in the States right now. Look who has the power – business- especially multinationals.
Brexit MEANS Brexit.
Any issues?
Go whine to a Brexiteer.
That is all.
Funny thing, they still continue whining to the EU, who only gave them what they wanted: a Canada style deal.
Have your cake and eat it too.
There’s no cake to be seen, but in the Brexiteers’ defence, they didn’t eat it.
I like cake. We certainly got one. All the sovereign nations of europe are watching our example of how you can have your cake and eat it.
@Heid The Ba’ If so, it appears to be a fish cake, and a rotten one at that.
@peabase do you want some fish?
@Heid The Ba’ I’m well provided for, thank you very much. I catch them fresh — I enjoy ice fishing.
U
Farmers were some of the biggest proponents of Brexit. Now they should enjoy it and quit complaining
I hate to say I told you so.
Social engineering by social medias had paid off….. The biggest threat to modern society….. More buffoons with fascist and populist ideologies are leading us!!!
It’s not that funny but actually pretty funny that fishermen, who voted overwhelmingly to leave, are seeing their livelihoods literally dying
@The Tower – Fantasy Music The ultimate self induced learn to code moment motivated by nationalism and ignorance.
Next time, if it’s everything all right, and politicians tells you, “we all have a problem…” Just don’t believe it. That’s “the” lesson to be learnt…
Again, this is a an utter systemic failure of our governance. Be sensible by implementing WIN-WIN deals so that everyone wins. Here, the right approach is open trading. Time to exit Brexhit, innit mates?
If you start cutting yourself off from the market you shouldn’t be surprised. They might be able to export tariff free, but still have to comply to the rules of every market they want to export. Tariff barriers are less important then regulations barriers.
They are really shocked that putting yourself out of a market makes access to it harder.
The UK is now out of the EU so no more subsidies from the CAP. No « shackles » means no more money. The trade agreement negotiated by the British government also means regulation barriers between British products and their main export market, a market that cannot be replaced by another one.
All of this has been chosen by British voters, they are the direct and logical consequences of being out of the single market and the customs union. This is actually what Brexit truly means.
Can we get you on a national broadcast? we need you to tell us brexiteers what we voted for. Thanks. When are you available?
@Heid The Ba’ you need a French guy to tell you what you voted for? What a failure of sovereignty!
@manuel atreide yeah, we need you. Can we get you a slot on tv so you can tell all of us?
@Heid The Ba’
Hilarious
@Marvin Storm can you appear as his sidekick?
That’s what you got for voting Tory
Oh yeah, because the alternative was so much better…
@Micky Finn What, investment in public services and the possibility of a second referendum? Sure, imagine the horror….
Why vote for baby KILLERS ?? Dunblane ?? Iraq war ??
@M XP public services I can get on board with, implemented by a Corbyn cabinet? Not so much.
A second referendum… great. What would that have solved? There’s a reason labour lost their voter base.
We got brexit baby.
They are never happy. They weren’t happy in EU either being told what, when, how, and how much to grow and sell.
The EU never told a siingle farmer what, when or how to grow something.
@der_ radierer but they did provide huge grants, to push farmers to leave land fallow, plant trees etc…. Discouraged competitive growth
@Jay Law
But that wasn’t the point of the OP I was answering to.
All policies can be criticised, the question is whether the outcome will be better when made at national level. Looking at the UK, it doesn’t look so at the moment. Very strong opinions based on absolutely nothing describes the political decision making process in the UK.
If they cant export to Europe then they can export to Australia or Africa. Duhh
Yeah, lets sell ice and snow to the eskimos
Distance is often a formidable barrier to trade. And regulations aren’t EU-only.
Duh, Australia is exporting cattle to China. You think that these people are biting at the bit to drag goods 6000 miles that they can produce at home? What do you think the market is for toffee and Cadbury?
Yes they aleays coukd whilst being in the EU. The EU27 do it.
No one to blame left but yourselves now.
People will be kicking themselves in few weeks if they miss the opportunity to buy and invest in bitcoin
@Nathan Liam thanks for the info
Her success story is everywhere 😮
Wow I can brag about this expert Christiana Robert managed my account in such a way winning is the only standard I know
Expert Christiana Robert is a certified broker I have worked with her for years
Wow that’s a lot of bots! YOUTUBE WTF ARE YOU DOING LOL>
Werent UK farmers paid to stop producing in order to help French farmers to produce more? Isnt the problem that UK farmers are no longer in a position to provide for the country’s needs because of this?
@connor1077
He’s a brexiter, they don’t give explanations, they have opinions.
And belief, never underestimate the belief!
@der_ radierer a belief without facts.
@der_ radierer Jay law seems to forget that any law/subsidy to uk farmers was agreed by the uk government, typically brexiteer we’ve been in Europe for nearly 50 years but he still see’s it as an ” us and them” situation and ignores the fact any EU law he doesn’t like we helped write and ratify 👍🏴🇪🇺
Naive.
Like fishermen some sold quotas AND were subsidised by the EU.
Ignorance……. Jeez
This comment is bullshit. If you say that UK farmers were paid to produce less, then the same has to apply to all other EU farmers. Because all policies apply the same to all members.
To say the farmers of one country received subsidies in oder for farmers of other countries to gain market share is complete bollox.
lol they’re going to pay farmers to be less productive and have smaller yields, at a time when population will be higher than ever in human history and food scarcity will become a real issue?
Wtf are the UK playing at.
@TJ Marx far too technical….I did not refer to mega Co vertical.usually hydro. Vertical with soil, on a smaller level. Simply to reduce space. As you mentioned we will lack. I’m simply saying some of us are already accounting for that. Can’t solve all problems, but… We can and are trying to counteract, even if on a small more personal level
@ Jay Law
Amazing how the EU reduces land through payments isn’t it?
I mean, most people would at least require an excavator.
Fun aside, if it were true what ou say there wouldn’t be much farming in other EU countries. But the opposite is the case. And all EU countries are treated exactly the same.
The same applies to your foreign trade. We’re the EU making trade more difficult, they wouldn’t do so much foreign trade, or internal trade. The opposite is the case.
Let’s see how the UK figure will look in a year or two.
The flight of Eurotrading won’t even start before next year.
@Jay Law
What’s “far too technical”? The reality of farming? Lmao.
Even where vertical farming uses soil, it’s synthetic soil and includes hormone. Vertical farming does not work without introducing hormone, the plants need it to survive in those conditions.
Likewise, it isn’t cost effective on a small scale. On the microscale you’re talking about not only is it not cost effective but it provides not additional land.
@TJ Marx
Bla bla bla ….. Yawn.
@Marvin Storm Go to bed if you’re tired.
P.S. Blah is spelt with a ‘h’
While the UK may have to take one or two temporary bullets until they manage to fully transition from EU into sovereignty with newly formed trade deals and a vibrant market, things will gradually improve and Europe will be better off by EU’s supranational neoliberals taking a step back. EU should’ve stayed neutral, focused on security/trade and maintained global peace. The moment the union stepped away from that vision, they became a threat to nation states, conservative morals, security, and a balanced political situation in Europe.
Props to the UK for making a small sacrifice.
You want the free market at work? Look at Texas in the States after the snowstorm. No government regulation meant people getting hit for thousands in bills from “independent power producers” and no supply. That, ladies and gentlemen, is the free market at work. You wanted cheaper rates that float based on the market, well you’re screwed now. Pay me now, or pay me later. Good luck competing in a world based on price when you’re rivals costs are 1/10 yours. We learned that from China, and we keep learning. But hey, enjoy your freedom based on government promises 7 years down the road. Where is this trade deal with the US or China the government hyped?
When I was in UK. I saw empty boarded up streets under a constant grey sky, litter everywhere.
Homeless people sleeping in doorways. Opioid addicts out of their mind and women so drunk they urinated on the streets.
It’s a sad declined country
@DAVIS MATE If only they knew what the UK is really like. The poverty, litter, peados, mayhem, grubbiness of it all. UK is a dump.
Obviously your address was in east London the area filled with ethiopian
Obviously your address was in east London area filled with Ethiopian and other African refugees no wonder the place..
Serves ya right for snooping thru my bedroom window.
They could legalize weed and solve half of that but they won’t. Also kratom is illegal there. How smart(sarcasm).
I am of an age and from the north of England I have seen the damage the tory’s have and continue to do once again the people who did not vote for these con men will suffer,hear we go again .gods teeth!
Well said sir. I’m of our vintage probably and agree entirely.
I bugered off to Australia, spend time in France. Didn’t get a vote in the referendum like2. 5million other o/s Brits so sod the UK. Not renewing my passport, I shoved it in a urinal.
They VOTED FOR Brexit!!!! Now own it!!! They got what they voted for!
@Sausage @Sausage & yet your per capita COVID deaths are second only to Slovenia, Czechia, & Belgium. But good on you for getting lots of people half-vaxed. Gold Star.
Oi I didn’t vote for it dont tar all British people with the same brush
Mug
@Sausage most farmers did. the anti brexit group was the younger generation who love globalization, open border and probably working overseas.
@Sausage
Fine. Had 2 shots. Have you?
Where is the news about 7000 thousands migrants workers die in Qatar why aljazera hiding this news
It was in the Guardian yesterday. It’s not news in Qatar.
The decision on EU membership should never have been given to the tabloid reading masses. Or to the Guardian and Independent reading masses, for that matter. The overwhelming majority of us didn’t have the background or understanding to make an informed decision, whichever way we voted.
What your promoting is that the elite should decide for the peasants. This is the modern world not the days when elites alone can decided the future of a country.
@Guardian of Fire We elect leaders to make the informed decisions for us, guided by civil servants who dedicate their professional lives to trade and diplomacy. It was insanity to back them into a corner based solely on the gut instinct of the ignorant masses (of which I am a part).
But if you’re hung up about “elites” making decisions for you, perhaps we should dismantle society and go back to pure anarchy instead?
@Mali Yojez Politicians have their own interest. Many are part of the wealthy, have family that are wealthy or connected to corporations or industrial associations and lobby groups. As such cannot be trusted to make certain important decision themselves without over site by the people. Many politicians use their position to pass laws, gain access to information to use on the stock market and generally abuse their powers. Western democracy is rife with this problem. Many when caught go unpunished by the courts as they changed the laws and use democracy as shield not to be lynched by the masses. Leaving politics but with millions in their pockets.
@Guardian of Fire If our politicians are so untrustworthy (you won’t get any disagreement from me about that), why did you vote to give them even more unchecked power over us? Goodbye European Court of Human Rights. Goodbye the best of European trade negotiators working for the good of everyone in the trading bloc. Goodbye the set of workers rights required by the EU. Now we’re stuck with only what our small band of British politicians are willing to give us.
@Guardian of Fire Seems to me that you played right into the corrupt hands of Boris, Gove and Mogg by first voting for Brexit and then giving them control of it during the last election.
So funny seeing brexiteers turning into brexitears
And how they go on about the EU.
Haven’t they grasped yet that they have nothing to do with all things EU anymore?
@der_ radierer Yep. They’ve finally fully left they “have their borders back” but its still the EU’s fault. K
@der_ radierer why are you on so many brexit channels? obsessed with the UK? we left, get over it.
@Heid The Ba’ Just for entertainment. And to watch a historical political event as it unfolds.
And I have a professional interest in negotiation strategies used at international level. The UK being a perfect example of how not to do it.
What’s your interest? Why are you on these moaning threads instead of enjoying your victory up in the Sunlits, watching the mighty prosperity roll in?
@DangerZone They turn everything around to fit their beliefs. Watch today’s vid from ‘Hello There’. He demands full access for UK hauliers to the EU market as if they were still a member. His reasons are that we would shoot ourselves in the foot if we didn’t grant it (?The EU needs UK hauliers).
Firstly, they get 40% of their food from the EU and 85% of the trucks are EU registered. Hence 34% of the UK’s food is brought in by us. So what does he think would happen if they barred us from doing it, I wonder. Who needs who here?
And when it comes to not shooting ourselves in the foot. Well, the UK just shot itself in the face with a machine gun only because they believed it would hurt the EU. (falling apart, € imploding). So surely you don’t mind us doing a bit of foot shooting just to see whether it really feels as victorious as you say. 😂😂😂
If I was a farmer, I’d sell my field, invest in Bitcoin or Tomochain and retire because brexit isnt going to get better.
Bitcoin, sure, the worlds biggest scam…. why not tulips… it was also a great investment for some time…..
@Hans Bjorkman Its obvious that you are trying to deter people from buying BTC or TOMO because you want to buy these at the lowest price possible…
*Everything is a scam it you look hard enough with tinted glasses… even your comment*
@Hans Bjorkman
Oh. Brexit wasn’t a scam then. OK monsieur. Enjoy your lobotomy.
@Marvin Storm Brexit was a huge political scam, 4 rich media owners convinced the badly educated that it was great opportunity for them, them meaning the media owners but I guess the poorly educated it meant them! Still Bitcoin is also a scam just like tulips.
Don’t worry, you have a great Five Eyes alliance that sells agricultural products to Australia, Canada and the United States
Poison Seed
The Five Eyes sell shellfish?
I presume this is meant ironically? The five eyes is strictly a spying network, it has nothing to do with trade. Not a single thing. And the idea that the UK could sell wheat, or any agriproduct to the US or Canada….. hilarious! They are drowning in wheat, barley, and every other agricultural product. I think they might just get by without those of the UK. Especially as UK products would first have to travel across the ocean (might just take a while) and then compete with products from a country with massively lower environmental and animal welfare standards, with therefore much cheaper products. The UK will be lucky if their farmers aren’t all bankrupt within a few years and they are getting food from the UN.
Top 3 Economies in 2030 – 1) China 65 trillion USD, 2) India 43 trillion USD, 3) USA 32 trillion USD.
UK is just a normal fourth world country.
I like your humour
Guys enjoy with ur result.
I drove through Kent, Surrey and West Sussex on the day of the vote. Every field by a road had a ‘Vote Leave’ placard up. Every bridge. Farmers have what they wanted. ‘Welcome to the Brexit, sir’.
Thank you sir, Brexit is going pretty well. Np”cliff edge” or any of that nonsense.
Financial center lost 7000 jobs
Farmers are up in arms
Fishermen are up in arms
Northern Ireland up in arms
DUP are looking to bring back borders/ trouble in Northern Ireland by breaking the peace
Up to half a million jobs lost to Brexit since the vote
Euro clearing houses leaving London
EU opening up Clearing houses for the US Dollar
It’s no wonder some are trying to make up some positives
@Stephen Devlin
True. And this is only the beginning. Wait until the Euro-clearing goes.
Presently, the EU granted it until June 2022.
@der_ radierer Forgot about that must add it, they are also opening up for US dollar cleararing
Listen to the guys you farmers voted in to power, nice words of environment and nature! That farmer talk about the risk, The Brexit was all about taking back control and find new markets, well new markets is a two way street, of course USA and NZ will dump cheap stuff on you home market killing your business of. Wasn’t that on the red bus?
British agriculture for the most part seems artificially kept a float. Just like the west can’t compete with the third world in manufacturing the same must be with farming in the UK. This is the sad reality of globalism.
Farming has nothing to do with globalism because farming is the most protected area in any trade deal – and for good reason.
Even under WTO rules by far the highest tarriffs are on agricultural products.
NO GMO Take Back The Land! FARMERS PROTEST!
What else are they taking back?
O so UK is worried but dgaf about Indian Farmers⁉️ smh
MPA MNAs are elected by vote by signing or thumbprinting the voting form. Why not in the Parliament and Senate? Voters know who they voted for. It is these people who are accountable to the nation and also guilty of God who deceive – the silence of the Chaudhry Brothers, welcome visited to Sri Lanka and Cricket Diplomacy are showing new dreams to the people –
Leave voters got what they deserved
Let’s have a word about BUREAUCRATS.
According to the news, the UK now has more bureaucrats just to deal with Brexit than the EU administration has to manage the entire EU.
The UK so far has 21 ministers that were never elected by anyone and do not have to answer any questions to Parliament.
Some of them sit at the cabinet table in No.10 and are effectively part of government – Mr Frost being the latest example.
It almost goes without saying that hardly any of these has any experience in public office, not to mention the area they are ministers for.
Glad the EU appoints competent and experienced people. Look at Mr Barnier:
First regional elected office 1973, with presiding duties from 1982 to 1999.
Youngest ever MP in 1978 at age 27. Since 1999 EU commissioner. 2004 short period as Foreign sec, 2009 Secretary for Agriculture and Fisheries, 2009 MEP, 2010 Commissioner for the Single Market and the reduction of trade barriers, 2014 Vice President of the Commission, 2015 special advisor to the Commission for the Security and Defense policy, 2016 chief Brexit negotiator.
This guy is a diplomatic giant. And the Brits put Davis “No notes” , Raab “”tell them to get lost” and Frost “No compromise, we are british” on their side of the table. No surprise they ran at first opportunity.
This policy makes the UK dependant on food imports from outside.
Absolutely true.
Imagine another volcano ash cloud reducing harvests, and countries like the US or China will impose export bans. America First!
Where will the UK be then?
The uk imports 80% of its food requirements. Google it
@Anthony Burke To my knowledge the UK has about 60% of its food from domestic sources. If your number is true the UK produces only 20%. That would be very bad and leave the country extremely vulnerable. But this policy would make it even worse.

Amazing
Whinning on something you voted for
If your main market is the EU, why vote brexit??? I’m sure no other markets outside the EU will replace what they lost due to brexit. On the contrary now they will have competition from outside Europe.
This doesn’t make sense. We voted to leave the EU so we could control our laws, borders and commercial policy. Which is what we now do.
NZ just signed a massive agreement to sell EU their lovely lamb, undercutting. . Bye bye UK lamb, revenge best served cold.
@Marvin Storm bye bye eu lamb in the uk market once we let the lamb in from around the world.
This is result what they have voted for
Cheaper meat prices are a problem? Small farmers worldwide are struggling, need to modernise, and get off subsidies?

Any farmer that voted for Brexit fully deserves to go bust and I hope they all do. They are quite happy for other businesses to suffer.
But farmers feed u ‘ what would u like to see a famine maybe .
@Martin Byrne
Brexit means brexit.
People can eat nationalist pride.
@Zuurker U i am a farmer . And I voted for Brexit, I did it to try and scare the eu , but I hoped it would not happen , I thought by voting for it , it would make us stronger within the eu and we would get us more bargaining power ‘ it look as if now , nobody wants our fish and meat , and I will be left with my sheep and cattle that has no market , what am I supposed to do now , I need to sell to keep food on the table , will the eu let us back in and everything could go back to normal again , how long would it take for that to happen if we all voted to get back in .
@Martin Byrne
I am sorry for you, i really am.
But it was very clear what would happen of you voted to leave the EU with the terms the torries presented.
@Martin Byrne this has to be a joke
I have a large industrial desalination plant for sale , large enough to handle brexity farmers tears, daffodil growers tears’ bi valve mollusc fishermens tears, cheese makers tears and general haters tears. Buyer collects ,cheap.
👌
Brilliant
BUT they all wanted their “freedom” back? Go cry with the fisherman.
Brexit: Possibly the biggest confidence trick ever played on an entire nation. And the charlatans look like getting away with it because the British press are virtually silent.
3rd rate Australian beef, for a 3rd rate country, welcome to brexit sir 🤬
So they voted Brexit n all they can do now is cry all gadamm Day……
Ask the farmer how he voted🤣🤣🤣brexit
I like Boris’s hairstyle !
The British farmers can go swop their vegetables for all the the fish that the fishermen have to spare ,,,,, We Europeans do not want to purchase British goods, we would prefer to import goods into the Union than support these Traitors. Go Starve.
Brexmoaners
BoJo is such a dork!
After leaving the biggest and wealthiest free trade area, the UK government is promising golden opportunities?? 🤣👌🏾 I seem to have taken my economics degree in the wrong university 🙄 oh, the price of ignorance, cof, cof, I mean sovereignty 😉👍🏾
Trump university.
Of course they are promising golden opportunities because there are golden opportunities all over the world…..what an ignorant thing to say, did you get your degree from the back of a cereal box?
The UK public is enloying golden showers from every Tory MP. Enjoy.
Brexit means Brexit
Red, white and blue Brexit
Get Brexit Done.
Quite.
I dont why he is moaning agriculture prices in the UK are actually quite good.
in the last 5 years because of Brexit and the low pound farmers in the uk have never made so much money.
Does he think his hair looks good like that? Is he a comedian of a politician?
Yeah it’s insane. He literally looks like a clown
That’s a very poor Report, low on detail, or any comparative indices of 2021 v 2020 or 2019
vote brexit, go bust
They massively voted for the lying conservatives
Are we supposed to shed tears ?
Now They ve their blue passports haven’t they ?
They should call Nigel Farage .
He doesn’t need them now they ceased to be of any interest to him once the votes were counted, they were played for fools by liars.
Our farmers at home and non EU farmers abroad have a new opportunity to shape a sustainable future for agriculture. This will be a challenge, sure. The crooked path of Set aside subsidies etc is doomed. Look to the Future, it’s bright.
Oh God.
You’re a Green.
@Marvin Storm I am a Socialist, First.
I’m learning not to trust anyone who needs a haircut gimmick.
Who win in this brexit ?
EU ? No
UK ? Ofcourse no
The one who really win is the non EU country
Boris Johnson always looks hungover
So much negativity , Boris has got trade deal with the Galapagos Islands , two sacks of carrots but its just for starters
Yep, farmers could use George Eustice and the entire rest of the government as landfill. There seems to be no oser purposeful use for them; althoug, they are probably toxic waste.
Strange how Farage never mentions Brexshit any more, I’m just surprised he’s still in the country.
And as for George Eustace, no wonder they call him ‘useless Eustace’ he lies more times than Pinocchio.
Farmers, have you seen the huge trade deal we have all around the world, plus brits won’t buy products from EU, so you will if organised sell more at home,
@Heid The Ba’ It’s all about you and your obsession though . Why don’t you go around your town giving out leaflets ? I suspect most ordinary people would just throw your leaflet in a bin and buy whatever they like . The EU have acted with diplomacy and stuck to their principles. The U.K. is now having to deal with the consequences of the lies peddled about non existent “opportunities “ . Fishermen , farmers , businesses , financiers – etc etc . You have created self harm . Get used to it .
@Euro Man I’m not the only one switching to british. You need to get with the trends. There’s a reason why the remoaners are stuck in the past. Brexiteers want to alter the trade balance and there are various surveys out there showing that it isn’t just about me. Many are switching to british. Even just 30% of them can have a drastic impact as you have seen. More than just a cauliflower or two isn’t it? Do you feel silly now?
@Heid The Ba’ Not convinced and of course you are entitled to your delusions .The reality will dawn on you in time . Exports are down so getting your trade balance sorted is proving difficult already . It’s funny how “global free trade Britain “ morphed into isolated protectionist , boycotting delusion so quickly . Felling silly yet ?
@Euro Man not convinced that the population will buy british? You underestimate british resolve kid. Its funny how the uk exports all over the world and exports are down because of covid. There’s a pandemic out there. Can you tell me more about your two cauliflowers? Feeling silly yet?
@Heid The Ba’ Next time you are in the supermarket car park look around you and you will see German cars everywhere snd some Japanese cars .Even if some are made in the U.K. they are owned by EU or Japanese companies with their boardrooms over there .You are welcome to your delusional thinking . You are in the first stage of Brexit Grief . Denial .
Enjoy you’re “freedom”…. Or is it Freedumb?
@philip013 try speaking Dutch. Or for god sake any other language… See how that works out for u. Do you understand what I am saying? Yes? 🖕
@Rob Fair enough. Apologies.
The farmers wanted it. Now no subsidies, protectionism, unions etc!
60% voted brexit, they got what they wanted
Well, in 2011 Britain paid 11.7 billion into CAP but received only 8.4 billion back, so It would not be unreasonable to at least keep the 8.4 billion or even increase it and we would still be saving money.
Oh cry me a river.
It’s a bit late to be worried now, innit?
After having put up all those Vote Leave signs.
Maybe they could recycle the signs and prosper mightily.
Told you so. You wouldn’t listen to project fear, instead listening to the psychopath Johnson.
Useless Eustace sounds like a Dalek on steroids. The EU subsidies mean we in the EU get to keep them, more for us.
You are utterly stupid. Zero sympathy.
And this all happened thanks to the Australians oligarchs controlling news in the UK
perhaps could you shine a light on how the whisky export is affected by brexit
because if i look at the online shops website there are a lot more sold out labels then i was used to and i mean a LOT more
When national insurance number office open
Crying all the way to bankruptcy i this freedom from the EU is great
You won, get over it !
Well the UK won, so they should be happy
British Turkey’s voted for Christmas.
Our farmers need to grow more food to be sold in the UK. This food will be paid for by the people of this country.
Farmers will eventually become employees of corporations.(They knew that would happen and they voted for it regardless)
Brexit means Brexit. And these are just teething problems
Uk is dead country
Madness!
Worzel Gummidge talking BS to farmers . Bet that went down well , yet many Farmers voted for this mess and will get little sympathy.
Bonkers Britain
