But wait, I thought the Tories promised to maintain the levels of subsidies on farms!? And the leave campaign told us that the EU was holding back UK farming and farmers would be better off?!

They didn't LIE to people did they?!?! :shock:

Nothing wrong with chlorinated dog meat.

Full of goodness, full of vitamins, full of marrowbone jelly.

I imagine they can just plug the gap in their funds with all the money they got from Vote Leave for letting them erect billboards on their land.

Not to be too macabre but we are likely to see a spike in suicides as a result of this. Farmers are already a high risk group for suicide for a variety of reasons and this is going to make things even worse

It’s okay because they won’t need the subsidies as our blossoming free market economy will allow trade to flourish in new markets that for some reason the government seem to think never existed when we were in the EU :fp:

Also serious question time. What’s the reason that the EU wouldn’t want the UK to have chlorinated chicken imported from the US? Is it fears that they could then be imported into the EU from the UK or is it because it will make the product cheaper than EU chickens? Or is it something else? I honestly don’t know.

I don’t think the EU really gives a gooseberry fool if we import rotten US chicken. They only care if it is ending up in their own territory. A border in the Irish sea should stop that, so I don’t think the EU will moan.

This is what is confusing me. There are likely a lot of false reports about the EU refusing to do a deal unless we ban chlorinated chicken. If we end up with a proper boarder then I don't see why it would bother them as they just wouldn't allow it to be imported into the EU anyway as they already prevent it happening from other countries that accept chicken from the US that also have trade deals with the EU.

It would depend what the deal was. A full free trade deal that included meat would be off the table if Britain suddenly started copying the American system of rancid meat dipped in chorine.

Basically the EU will not accept lower American style standards. If we want a deal, then we will have to agree to keep standards high. If we go WTO only, then the EU will not give a gooseberry fool if we are eating crap, they just will not allow our disease ridden shite in their markets.

We have to concede sovereignty to get deals. It's necessary. They need to get used to this fact or we will end up on the scrap heap.
