Just listened to a fascinating The Food Programme on Radio 4 which confirmed my concerns around the impact Brexit has on our Food supply chain.

It ain't looking rosy people. Ignoring the devalued pound leading to increased food and grain imports, knocking onto increased food prices, WTO tarrifs putting us at a disadvantage and 25% of the farm workforce coming from Europe. We don't have the infrastructure in place to plug these gaps within the timescale or the people who could do the negotiations. Brexiters answers on a postcard please
We have not had highly expensive food or food shortages in my lifetime....yet.... If we do shall we 'let them eat cake'?
