UK’s post-Brexit checks on fruit and vegetables delayed for a third time​

Move comes amid concerns from suppliers that checks on goods coming from EU could lead to higher prices

The government said plans to introduce checks on some fruit and vegetables, such as celery and tomatoes, from 1 January would now be postponed by six months, in a move that would give it more time to understand the impact on businesses.


Nine years after voting they will try to understand what impact Brexit will have on businesses. Really, seriously? Hmm, I wonder what the answer to that question is?
Presumably Starmer does realise he hasn't any choice but to implement it eventually, and not just because of the EU, he does, doesn't he? No?

It also seems that the UKCA mark is going to be abandoned as well. So new products will require the CE mark. Tested in the EU.

You can't make this up.

Remember, Starmer, Herr Scholz said you have to implement the Brexit agreement in full.

Brexit red tape on British businesses has caused goods trade between the UK and EU to slump and the problem is getting worse, a study has warned.

Many smaller UK producers have given up exporting small amounts to the EU after facing more rules and regulations, a report by Aston University Business School has found.

Something Paul has been saying for some time.

UK’s ‘not for EU’ meat and dairy labelling plan postponed indefinitely​

Policy devised under Conservatives will be reviewed after warnings of chaos for producers and suppliers

Government plans to force food manufacturers to put “not for EU” labels on all meat and dairy products sold across Britain next month have been indefinitely postponed after warnings that the scheme could cause “chaos” for producers and suppliers.

The government will instead review the policy, which was devised under the Conservative administration. Legislation to implement the changes has yet to be brought in.

The Food and Drink Federation had estimated the cost to the industry of meeting the new labelling requirements at up to £250m a year, and warned that it would increase the price of products for shoppers.

"Not for the EU". A label that inspire confidence in the consumer.

I would think: so the test treshold for this meat is lower than the past as it cant be sold in the EU?

It evokes "not for human consumption"

Who would have thought it?

It already has and will continue to impact many SME. Many of whom seemingly voted for it in the first place.

Sure you can tinker round the edges and improve some things marginally....but it won't fundamentally change outside of the single market.

The "Not for EU" was for orignally for GB products to be sold in Northern Ireland without having to go through the additional checks and certification , which they still have to do.

Now it's Starmer hopelessly trying to have a Vet agreement not realising that you still have to prove where the products come from and still have all the certification. He's promised to sign up for a course on how different Customs Unions work before he loses his job. He hasn't got much time.

Apart from the odd nutcase, Starmer will probably be the last person in the Uk who still thinks Brexit will work.

It really is the gift that keeps on giving.

Ah well. At least our sovereignity is residue-free, I suppose.
 
Don't worry, at least the NHS now has an extra 350 million per week to deal with the fallout of that, right?
 
It's nice to see that after centuries of ruining other places, Britain finally turned to ruining itself.

Don’t forget chlorinated chicken
 
Yet despite all that's happened and all the things still to come, one of the main proponents of it is has just become an MP and still fawned over by the media.
People actually still believe what he says and earns a fortune conning people with lies. He should be behind bars not in the HoC.
