    Why should a 1-man Ltd company enjoy the benefits of the NHS when I as a full time employee must pay full NI contributions?? Simply not fair.

    Neither informative nor helpful. Nor relevant, especially as the chlorine wash is external and wouldn't impact that scenario anyway. How was it being stored? No, don't bother, I'm not interested.

    The US won't stand for a deal where UK consumers simply don't buy US products because of strict labelling rules. US Chickens will have Union Jacks printed all over them, they will be sold to shell companies in the UK and be labelled "UK sourced".

    The UK will be forced to change its laws and you will not be able to choose your chicken. US producers are not fools, they will obfuscate so you have no idea who "made" your chicken

    Either the UK will be tied to the EU as a defacto member or it will need to change to adapt to the US.

    After Australia signed its deal with the US, US exports went down and US imports went up.

    No, obviously, because they won't be cooking supremes al lá grecque, but sticking to McDs...

    Australia signed a trade deal with the US in 2005. Obviously regulations needed to be aligned.

    Straight in the bin: Mother's horror after noticing her Coles chicken is GREEN - but the supermarket chain says there's nothing wrong with it

    A mother's roast dinner came to an abrupt end after she discovered that her Coles-bought chicken was green inside.

    Perth woman Lisa Wood was enjoying a meal with her four-year-old daughter on Tuesday night when she noticed the BBQ chicken they had been eating was discoloured.

    Ms Wood posted a photo of the chicken to Coles' Facebook page, saying she felt sick after the discovery and had thrown the chicken straight in the bin.
