Food Shortages.
"The British Retail Consortium" Which represents all the major food and retail chains in the UK.
Has said it expects to see food shortages and more empty shelves by the end of this week.
This is no longer about... will Christmas be OK ......It's about keeping the wheels turning and the lights on so we can get to Christmas..... Come on Boris ... time to step in. Before there is a winter of discontent under your leadership.

Its not a case of disagreeing or agreeing with gully, its looking at the facts. As someone who normally sells product to the EU, I personally am hitting brick walls trying to trade with the EU. They are making a scapegoat of the UK in a vain attempt to try and stop other Nations from thinking about coming out. Boris did not make good deals and God knows he had plenty...

//Gulliver, why do you think we can’t buy from the EU?//
It's a strange old attitude, naomi. Throughout the Brexit debate there has been a theme running which suggested that trade would no longer take place between the EU27 and the UK if we left. So I don't suppose any BMW or Mercedes cars have been sold in the UK since last January. I imagine the supermarket shelves are devoid of French wine and cheese and Belgian beer. Hang on though:

Volkswagen: 104,852 January to August '21 - (Top brand seller)
BMW: 77,614 (4th best sellers)
Mercedes: 69,469 (5th best sellers)
And here's me, as an ardent Brexiteer, thinking all this would stop. As well as (apparently) wanting to banish all foreigners from these shores, I didn't want any of their trashy muck being sold here. Perhaps nobody told these manufacturers that we've left and can no longer buy their goods! Perhaps it's just a few they had left over. Either way, I've been swindled and I demand an immediate re-run of the referendum. :-)
