1. As expected

2. And no one saw that coming!!

   /s

3. Sorry but this is hilarious.

4. Ahh the joys of leaving the EU.

5. Trump may demand this affront to UK food standards but supermarkets won’t stock this meat.
   Labelling would identify both origin and the chlorination treatment.

   BUT This chicken will be cheaper so could be used in the cheaper catering outlets.
   This depends whether this product could be permitted entry into the UK at any port of entry.

6. Wasn’t RFK supposed to make American food as healthy as European food? Not try to force the American garbage food upon Europeans.

7. The US really loves doing all this bullshit and expects better terms. We should be isolating the US more from trade, not less

8. Apparently someone is missing the concept of respecting other people/countries.

   I demand that my neighbor paint his house with purple and yellow stripes.

9. And we demand they don’t put a felon, fraud en rapist in in the White House.

10. I would take this as a serious warning, if the UK complies with this ridiculous demand, the US will tighten their grip.

11. These are the thinks I don’t get.

    Britain – “Sure. You just have to have a large ‘produced in america sticker – doesn’t meet EU anti clorinated standards. on the packaging.”

    You can then let that shit rot on the shelves til the groceries don’t buy it. Like, just label it, I guarantee no Brit buys it anyway.

    also, the flip side – “We are unwilling to make this concession until you reverse the 10% tariff to a 10% negative tariff (subsidy) on all British products.”

12. This greedy depraived regime doesn’t care about consumers knowing or consenting to what goes in their body or the moral age of consent.

13. So… Chlorine in chicken is good, but fluoride in water is bad?

14. The joys of Brexit. Thank you Russians, thank you Nigel Farage, Thank you Boris Johnson etc…
    English friends, come back to Europe, forget about the USA

15. Demands?

    I demand he shoves he Depends in his Nonce mouth.

16. It’ll end up in school canteens, your local curry house, tv dinners etc

17. Can someone explain to me why the U.S. has been trying to be all up in European affairs lately? From this to the whole ” U.S. calling for the EU to be disbanded” It’s getting to be very annoying and unsettling. 

18. Why are Americans obsessed with us eating chlorinated chicken?

19. 3 more years of this shit at the very least, an eternity if they actually slide fully into Fascism

20. If Starmer agrees to this, it will make him the worst PM in British history.

    Including the Lettuce

    Edit- typo

21. Stand up to the POS. I read that after the big royal treatment, state dinner the brits gave him, whatever deal Trump and Starmer signed has been was pulled by the White House. He never keeps his word, so F him.

22. I can see people not eating chicken if this happens

23. Can we demand that rapists and alleged child didlers in the US are prosecuted to the full extend of the law, regardless of their position in government? 

24. At the same time the UK is bargaining with the EU to get back in the single market. Both things don’t go together.

25. There’s no way I can see the UK government compromising on food standards to let competing products into the market. It is the third rail of UK politics. If you fuck around with food standards then it is the one thing that will unit left and right wing press against you because the left are concerned about animal welfare and the right are concerned about UK business. It would be suicidal for the current government to let it happen.

    On second thought, they are just incompetent enough to let it happen…

26. Chlorinated chickens is a way to hide mistreated chickens. Animal abusing, poor hygiene conditions in farms (sick and bacteria infected) or whatever they want to hide.
    That’s why EU banned chlorinated chickens since 1997. EU have high standards on animal living conditions and farm hygiene.
    I will never eat a chlorinated chicken.

27. Fuck off orange man

28. Can Americans just shut the fuck up for one day? Such a tiresome country

29. Aren’t british farmers already revolting because of the Australian beef?

30. I only have three words to say to this.

    Fuck off, Trump

31. The British people are demanding that the US govermnent stop raping kids
