  • The price increases all kick in from 31 March onwards according to a report on the BBC only yesterday! Meanwhile food retailers on the continent who sell goods imported directly from the UK currently have empty shelves where some of the most popular food items should be plentiful and indeed were plentiful prior to the completion of Brexit at the start of this year! It makes no sense whatsoever to make trade in food, goods or anything else more difficult and more expensive between neighbouring countries or indeed between countries in the same continent but that is exactly what Brexit is currently doing!
    Out of interest, do you have a link to that report regarding future food price increases from 31 March onwards?
    Out of common courtesy if nothing else I would have provided the link had eskbanker not beaten me to it!
