Who remembers Jaffa and Outspan?


It's going to be interesting seeing how our stores like Tesco adapt now that they are free of what was, if we're being honest, an EU monopoly so that we can source goods from wherever we want.
I remember the Man from Delmonte, he say Yes.

It may be a little inconvenient for the Australians, but we voted in favour of Brexit because we believed that was better for the UK residents.!

Boris claiming we will have the same access to te Single Market as before and that there are no Non Tariff Barriers.

This is nonsense as some are finding out.

We are not allowed to export fresh sausages, minced meat products, recovered meat for example.

But we can export it if it frozen apparently.

Why don't you tell us the value of these items that are currently exported to the EU?
Would it be because their value is negligible by any chance?

Not only that, but even manufacturers are correctly saying that these goods can be exported in frozen form and that there are significant opportunities in EU markets for such produce.
The UK was the only country in Europe exporting fresh goods like these and, AIUI the "vast majority" according to the British Meat Processors Association goes to Northern Ireland.
That alone suggests EU-bound exports of these goods are not exactly of huge value.


All this nitpicking aside, all you're doing is blindly listening to media again Swimmy.
It is also far from being the "nonsense" you suggest because I haven't seen Boris say that "we will have the same access to te Single Market as before and that there are no Non Tariff Barriers.[sic]"
A link to that from Boris please, because until you can provide one it is just another lie.

It's time that you accepted that there will be change and move on, because this frankly ridiculous nitpicking that you're parroting from the anti-Brexit media has been going on for far too long.

Re: A Cheer For Boris!

When even Norway thinks that the UK has got a very good deal you can be reasonably sure that Boris deserves that cheer.

Marit Arnstad, parliamentary leader of Norways Centre Party, says:
" The UK has got a deal with gives them more freedom and more independence,"

"From my point of view, the British have a better agreement than the EEA."


https://www.thelocal.no/20201229/nor...l-than-the-eea


Norway's citizens pay approximately two-thirds of the amount per person for EEA membership that UK citizens paid when full members of the EU.
