  1. I would imagine once Spanish meat and fish, and French and Dutch cheeses etc become problematic for the producers to export to the UK, and they complain to their governments, there will be easing of the rules on both sides.

  2. In April physical checks at the border will also begin, which will further push up prices.

  3. It’s all made up rules for the sake of rules. The EU has try and make Brexit as hard as possible. Even if it’s beyond reason.

    Fuck off and sell us your cheese

  4. Just back from the supermarket and prices are the same?

    Weird fetish for fear, Brexit has made zero difference in almost everyone’s life

  5. The hysteria over this article is hilarious given the actual figures this is based on quote an impact of 0.2% over 3 years

    Of course that may not turn out to be the case, but you’d think the article was predicting price increases similar to what we’ve just seen based on the reaction

  6. « This is the price you pay for a sovereign state, » said one Brexitwat unironically.

  7. Luckily the UK produces a lot of it’s own meat, fish, cheese and dairy products.

    However, it doesn’t detract from the fact that Brexit is the greatest example of social-economic self-harm to national interest in modern times.

  8. ‘Level the playing field for UK exporters’
    – what level them down to exporters into the EU who don’t benefit from the free market, well that’s just great then isn’t it

  9. Jesus fucking Christ. Some of the comments in here. 6 or 7 years after the vote to leave the EU (I don’t really care how long ago it was – it just feels like a fucking lifetime) and people still don’t know anything about the customs union, schengen, or anything at all about the EU in general.

    The UK could have agreed to a number of things after they left the EU: including being part of the customs union (which does not involve FoM), but they said no because it would impact on their own trade agreements with other countries: like that with Palau and New Guinea. All because they wanted to be independent and sovereign. Now see where that gets you in today’s world, Brexidiots.

  10. The easiest deal in history. This is just win after win. Next year brexiteers, we will be millionaires! (Not you, obvs)

  11. The UK has had a proportionally greater economic upswing since Brexit than Germany despite leaving the EU trading market. Let that sink in. That’s what EU ‘environmental’ policies will do for you, folks!

  12. They shouldn’t have been cheap to begin with. They weren’t cheap in 1650. Working class people ate oat meal to breakfast, lunch and dinner. Meat once every two weeks.

  13. Where’s the chap who kept telling anyone something about eating a cake all ?😎😈 /s

  14. My mum owns a fish n chip shop, she voted for brexit.

    Can’t wait to hear her complain the gish is going up again.
