Scumbags. I don't follow politics as such. All sanctimonious ****s with good intentions. I think I remember a time when USA was trying to engage in a 'tri-trading state'(I cant be arsed looking for the name) with UK and EU? And, the EU rejected USA while UK murmured support? Did we leave EU to edge our way back to USA? After all, we needed the USA the previous time we took on the EU? How much of a foot-in does USA have in EU? I bet USA took the rejection badly if this was the case. I dread the thought of the foods we are going to get now. Best thing to do is to stop eating meat and to convince everybody you love to do likewise. Yes, I have been taking that route a while. I live among an Asian community and consider myself lucky to be in touch with good foods. I think that you are sampling the end results how can living in a different community (type) provide better raw materials (unless everything is sourced from own allotments - something that doesn't scale above 0.1% of the population) tim Maybe it doesn't. Maybe they buy from the same reseller all other grocers in the UK do? I do know that some of the smaller grocers buy alongside the bigger importers in the area who do source the Asias. Why Asian? The range of selection of fruits and veg. Along with herbs & spices and dried pulses, these foods are pure medicine. Pure? Little to no chance of harming you if taken as a solution to an illness, or disease. As I have said before, conditions within the body, or anywhere for that matter, will determine the type of life that can live there. These foods go a long way to maintaining good conditions for growth and protection. Do I know what I'm buying? I can't, really, can I? Neither do I eat as well as it may be suggested in this post. It's just a view. |

Scumbags. I doubt *anyone* explicitly voted for Chicken a la Chlorine - it was an unexpected, unforeseen (to the public) consequence. So it is wrong to say that it is the public's fault for voting for Brexit. It is a shame that Boris can't insist on banning imports of chlorinated chicken, but that would probably scupper the UK-US trade deal. I presume our food-labelling rules will at least show the country of origin as USA, which allows the public to choose whether they want to buy it - even if that means that unchlorinated chicken gets left on the shelves because the public can't (aren't allowed to) tell the difference from chlorinated. The US want to end the practice of labelling the origin of food. How strange! The chlorinated chicken scenario was predicted numerous times, as was the NHS sell off. Boris does not give a damn about chlorinated chicken. he will never have to eat the stuff. The garbage will hit the shelves and British producers will have to drop their animal welfare and food safety spending, or go out of business. These are the problems the voter ends up with when all the politicians are looking after number 1. The inroad into the UK is worth plenty to America. Health, medicine and food will all be brought down to US standards. If Europe don't watch out there will be a continued attack on what is a major US competitor. At least Britain will have no problem showing the US a thing or two about unhealthy dangerous food. The nation that brought the world BSE because it was so much cheaper to feed dead animals to ruminants, has little to learn from the US.

No, it was clear from how she said it that she had little or no idea who or what CHurchill was, and assumed he was still alive. Dont attempt to confuse things with trivia. He wasn't available : Correct! She didn't know this. Deep shock and amasement. I thought we had already established this fact? Please try to stay with the program!!! She couldn't refer to him for an opinion: Correct! Not relevant to the point at issue, which was her profound state of ignorance. So if she were more astute, better clued up, he would be available for comment? I suspect not! Whether she thought he was dead, pot holing in Derbyshire or hiding in a fridge like his successor is immaterial. She was correct. D'ye mean Atlee or Eden? And she didn't think he was dead, she obviously thought he was alive. Perhaps Shrodinger had the wrong subject in mind when he dreamed up his piece of nastiness to pussies, he should have locked Winston in the safe, or maybe a fridge instead of a safe? Either way, believe me Winston or indeed Shrodingers pussy would not be available for consultation. A lot of the population are not aware that Archbishop Makarios has snuffed it, are you suggesting there is something contemptible about them because of that? Again, I'm afraid you are totally incorrect in just about all of your assumptions. AB From the well pummelled keyboard of Archibald Tarquin Blenkinsopp Esq |

You come out with this cock because you're sulking that brexit is happening, and so you're talking up hoped-for failure. Imports are not imported by governments, they are imported by private companies (generally) who then want to sell the product on.

Then you'd get rather more respect instead of being considered a nutter. We have certain food standards. Part of any trade deal will be to change these standards so we can import food that doesn't meet them. There are not separate standards for importation and retail sale. (There are clearly technical exceptions for e.g. animal feed, but it is true as a general proposition.) Secondly, shops don't have to admit the original country of production of food providing it is packed in this country (an example of EU regs being insufficiently rigorous in my opinion) so itt will not be possible to tell where food came from.

In general it is up to the exporter to meet local standards if he wishes to export - Chinese goods comply with electrical safety etc. If US imported food does not meet our standards it cannot be legally sold. We may change that, but there is no requirement that we do. There are not separate standards for importation and retail sale. That I think is probably true. (There are clearly technical exceptions for e.g. animal feed, but it is true as a general proposition.) Secondly, shops don't have to admit the original country of production of food providing it is packed in this country (an example of EU regs being insufficiently rigorous in my opinion) so it will not be possible to tell where food came from. Well that is down to us imposing local standards that DO give original country of origin, if that is what is felt to be important Without necessarily being too distressed about American chicken (I am less sanguine about hormones in beef) your view is over-optimistic about the ability of consumers to avoid these foods.

What this thread is about is assertions from twerps like you that we will all be somehow "forced" to eat US "chlorinated" chicken. No, I'm afraid the header does not mention chicken although it does relate to food in general terms. There is no suggestion that twerps are involved though. "Subject: Take Back Control (by fouling our food)" You come out with this cock because you're sulking that brexit is happening, and so you're talking up hoped-for failure. I am afraid you are totally clueless. I really don't give a damn about Brexit. I do not want problems for the UK, but the people went into Brexit with open eyes, they were all old enough to vote and indeed seem to be in line to "get what it said on the box". Fortunately I personally have a choice, and currently I'm sticking firmly with the EU. It means as much to me as switching from Aldi to Asda, so in the extremely unlikely event that things improve in the UK, I may be back. I will not return to some bargain basement economy where any garbage is deemed acceptable though. Imports are not imported by governments, they are imported by private companies (generally) who then want to sell the product on. That means someone has to want to buy it, and then be able to sell it to the public. Meaning, as it's food, it's gonna have to meet the same health standards as any other comparable food in the shops. If not, then it won't be legal to sell it, so the retailers won't buy it. I.e, NO MARKET. Just because something *can* be imported, doesn't mean it *will* be. Wow, I bet that took some working out. I trust you took a rest afterwards? Unless tarrifs are applied, then people will opt for the cheapest. The grand US plan of removing labels will aid this. Americans are not totally stupid you know and are fully aware that even Brexit voters will avoid rubbish. If there are no tarrifs and the stuff is freely imported, which it will be because Trump will cry foul if we dont buy the rubbish, then British farmers will have to drop standards to compete, or go bust. You'd do better to be directly attacking the production (i.e., welfare) standards. Then you'd get rather more respect instead of being considered a nutter. It has already been done. I am happy with the standards. Glyphosphate might be a problem after my 5L has gone, but picking weeds manually isn't too bad. She didn't know this. Deep shock and amasement. I thought we had already established this fact? Well I had. Have you only just caught up? So if she were more astute, better clued up, he would be available for comment? No, she simply wouldn't have made a fool of herself. A lot of the population are not aware that Archbishop Makarios has snuffed it, are you suggesting there is something contemptible about them because of that? Foolish, not contemptible, if they make public pronouncements on the basis of their ignorance. It was an announcement regarding her personal opinion was it not? I could well imagine myself coming out with such a statement. Something logically correct indicating contempt of a stupid question wasn't beyond my ability, it also gave the gullible morons a bit of a laugh before the truth dawned. My most successful was at a H&S lecture with a hundred or so present, for Costains [You might have been there]. The lot were in stitches at one of my responses, it is a glorious feeling when you provide people with the evidence that they are thick with just a few words of enlightenment. It is not foolish to fail to detail a triviality when the fact that Churchill could not be consulted was made clear. Simple logic. Churchill can be consulted if he is willing to be consulted AND within practical communicating distance AND able to be consulted AND NOT dead. I suppose being pedantic, it could be argued that the lady in question should have stated an aversion to ouija boards if death was nominated as the reason, but it wasn't and she didn't, so on the whole I would suggest her powers of logic and rreason well in advance of anything a Brexit voter could comprehend. I trust this clarifies the position? AB From the well pummelled keyboard of Archibald Tarquin Blenkinsopp Esq |

The UK could never get into Japan. In one case even lemon sherberts were rejected as not meeting spec because of the colour. Presumably you were not around in the seventies. Trade was like a game of chess. Mullard, one of our flagship industries went down. Their TV tuners were rejected by Panasonic. The reason.. Drift at minus forty degrees centigrade. Trade needs skill and acumen, I suppose it didn't matter when the colonies were pushing everything they had to us.

Who seriously looks, a few care strongly the others happily accept the crud until quality gets too bad an they complain, but by then the quality producers will have long gone. It happened with beer, there was no choice in the UK but to drink keg rubbish, it was cheap to produce and needed no skill. It took decades to get proper beer back after things went too far and the deflavoured fizzy crud started to be rejected. AB From the well pummelled keyboard of Archibald Tarquin Blenkinsopp Esq |
