If people looked at food in the supermarkets, you will see a lot of it is already produced in the UK and non-EU countries.Originally posted by Mordac View PostAnd all of that will be tariff free.
Sure, there will be some foods that become more expensive, but not stable foods that 99% of the UK people consume. If you want a very specific French cheese, then yes, tariffs will apply.
I believe overall there are deals and opportunities to be done. I think the EU will be the hardest deal for the UK to achieve, they have a vested interest to see the UK fail and will put pressure on other non EU countries to not deal with us.First Law of Contracting: Only the strong surviveComment
