New Brexit rules outrage Tory MPs as fruit and veg prices set to rocket

Jacob Rees-Mogg said he "strongly opposed" the new Brexit rules that will see fruit and vegetable prices rise.

On the one hand this is bad. But environmentally it would be good if we ate local seasonal veg. I'd miss my year round tomatoes and peppers though. I might have to grow them inside.

Local seasonal veg? I don’t want to spend every winter eating turnips and swede, thank you, just to appease a load of idiots who wanted to leave our main trading block. We have been a nett importer of food for a very, very long time; we don’t have a stream of delicious winter veg from suppliers in this country that we can just turn on. If we try and grow tomatoes and the like over here in heated greenhouses, the environmental impact is worse than importing it.

Oh, and Jacob Rees-Mogg is one of the cunts responsible for this shit shower. If there was any justice in this world he’d be in the stocks. Not that we can afford the veg to hurl at him.
