I don't know the rate for bananas but here's a good alternative. Per
IDS, last year the EU approximately trebled the tariff on oranges from
3% to 16% to protect Spanish producers. But that, of course, means that
we all have to pay more in the shops.


I don't quite get it. One moment, Brexiteers are complaining the EU took
no action to prevent China selling steel so as to undercut the UK makers.
But with oranges, it's ok. But of course we don't grow oranges.
