"Industry has not been approached by government to begin planning for this.
Retailers do not have the facilities to house stockpiled goods and in the case of fresh produce, it is simply not possible to do so.
Our food supply chains are extremely fragile and this is yet further demonstration of the need for an agreement on the backstop to ensure frictionless trade is maintained after the 29 March 2019."

Well there's plenty of material don't you think? Brexshit is the comedic gift that keeps on giving (unless you're one of the poor sods who'll be affected by it).
I don't blame you for not having any points of your own, though. You can't defend the indefensible, can you?

You need to put this in a new thread. If you've exhausted Sky News then the Guardian and Independent are always a good bet.

Or Bloomberg, Reuters, the NY Times, The Economic Review, The Economist etc etc. etc

Pretty sure 1 term of Corbyn will quickly remove that notion.

Corbyn doesn't even need to be in power for people to tulip themselves which explains the right's fear of him and the constant MSM attacks on him
