Deal with EU will make food cheaper and add £9bn to UK economy, says No 10

Agreement reached to ‘slash red tape’ on food products, in exchange for extended EU access to fishing waters
www.theguardian.com

Lets look at the positives I suppose. Its not as good as rejoining. But its better than the mess the idiot Johnson and the oafish Frost cobbled together.
Cheaper food, larger exports and a return to a form of free movement. All part of negating the brexit disaster.
Aliinment on food standards also sees the end of the chlorine chicken threat and the steroid beef.
Its a start and probably as good as we could wish for at this point.
The trawler men will whine but who cares ?
 
Good to see countries strengthening trade deals amongst themselves.
 
UK fishermen might have a meltdown, as the EU fishing boats now allowed in UK waters for 12 more years. On the other hand they might be able to sell their catch to the EU again.
 

Stilton has become prohibitively expensive here in the USA, so I hope that unfortunate price increase is promptly reversed.

It will be evidence Donald J Trump is very wise.

MAGA.

You are forgiven all your crimes against humanity for being a fan of stilton.


Wash your mouth out with soap. There's no substitute for stilton.

As James O'Brien pointed out though - the arsonists are waiting with their zippos to convince the poorest in the UK to burn their house down again and that it's all the immigrants fault.

 
Its hilarious. They were moaning that we had a deal at all. Its a bonanza for small producers because the extra costs are dropped.
It reminds me how much these ****wits have screwed up our lives. I despise them.
 
I do prefer Roquefort.... Stilton is to Roquefort what Irish whiskey is to Scottish. Yes, yes, some even prefer it (not that I understand them)...Roquefort is a work of art, Stilton is a marketed product. Just saying...
 
A heretic adds: I think I prefer white stilton to the blue-veined stuff.

I like both, they have differences in how they might be used but I don't see how one is better than the other beyond personal preference.

No, that insult can be laid at Danablu / Cambozola or even Maytag.

Well, the adults certainly won't.

Irish is better in my humble non whiskey drinking opinion.
