No brexit deal - foodprices will soar

[Old Greg]

The article is typical independent trash.

Of course if 30% of your food is from the EU and you are not part of their club you will be hit by tariffs that make the food more expensive.

Quality mince work.

Brexiteers don't eat much fresh food and they can make up for any shortages there by munching through the Brexit surplus gammon mountain and mince lake.

and Bremoaners just keep sucking the same old German sausage.

But you can now also source food from the rest of the world without the same tariffs that the EU places on imports applying.

Oh dear. The extra cost is mainly in non-tariff barriers. You know, the extra checks that the U.K. will be imposing to “secure its borders”.

The EU as a whole has relatively low tariffs with other countries, particularly through the EBA and GSP where tariffs on food from developing countries is 0%.
