Brexit: No deal is far better than staying in the EU | The Independent

Hear hear!!

The last time we had proper food shortages we had just won a World War, introduced the NHS, and had the healthiest population imaginable in terms of BMI.

Just saying.

the average brit running on beans on toast shall not worry. that thing does not expire and there is probably plenty buried around.
if you do no buy regular chicken(the white-ish one), pick only organic vegetables and always buy fruits you will see a different story.

I would not mind having the food the nordics have and paying slightly more but food in uk is already bad. If you add chlorinated chicken on top and imported products from all over the globe with questionable quality and a high price ... people will be annoyed.

most of the academics are family people on 30k max and FTC, they'll vote with their feet when their contract expires.

What’s the advice - hide under table and avoid looking directly at the blast?

Is that what Brexit has now come down to? We'll "adapt and survive", if that's really the best we can hope for then we're doomed. We've spent four years pissing about trying to find a way to make divorce look friendly and we're now left with "adapting and surviving".

It's time they updated this and sent it out to every household.

I'm sure the UK will adapt and we will survive. Thanks for your concern.

No problems but just in case, stockpile this...

Leaves more of the good stuff for us. Actually a lot of the Cheddar in Europe comes from Ireland anyway. The problem with the above, there are only a finite amount of milk which means at some point, something has to give. A few years old but still very relevant: Brexit and the Dairy Sector

Tesco: Brexit ''could see people choose cheddar over brie'' - BBC News

Brits could turn back to cheddar if the price of French cheese shoots up after a no-deal Brexit.

Tesco's chair John Allan told the BBC that import taxes could push up the price of brie by as much as 40%.

I'm trying to stock up, but keep drinking it.

Went to the Haribo outlet store today, stocks have been piled up

I used to have to drive past the factory in Bonn on the way to work. Divine smell.

I would imagine there are tulip loads stacked up by the Danish border.

The main issue will probably be hyperinflation not food scarcity.
I have a few kg’s I would like to shed, eating frugally might actually help.

Tesco are stockpiling. Hyperinflation is ludicrous.

You may be able to deal with a 15% price increase but a lot of people don't

It's not just price hikes, but a lack of supply while everyone tries to figure what is going on.
