It is unclear if a mccarthy can win Impeachment Vote in the

The eu say what farmers are allowed to grow and, indeed, what theyre not. The eu sets Animal Welfare and Food Standards regulations, and will ban imports that dont meet them. Eu payments come direct to farmers, keeping quite a few of them in business. And many of the people that pick and pack ourfood. Are in britain thanks to eu rules on Free Movement of labour. And free trade regulations mean that fresh fruit and veg and that cheeky continental treat are around all year duty free. The eu even controls what can go on the label of our food. So when we do leave the European Union, where is our next meal coming from . Brexit negotiations have just begun, but the uks divorce bill has to be agreed before we start to talk about trade. Food and farming, which together make britains biggest Manufacturing Sector by far, are ripe f
