CAP's been a mess for years (or always) so I was alwasys suprised how little airing this got during the campaign. If we don't subsidise farming/guarantee prices (whether nationally or across Europe) we stop growing stuff as we did in the early part of the 20th century risking food security, particulaly in the heightened liklihood of war across Europe (yes I am milking this). Good metaphor.


I get all my info from the Archers, so I expect the market to be flooded with cheap Polish lamb.

But at least you'll have a jolly song to hum while it does.


All together now: dumpty dumpty dumpty dum, dumpy dumpy dum-dum...

The idea that the UK will 'do regulation' better than the EU is pretty dubious imo. Sometimes I'm sure we will (it would be hard not to do better policy than in the example of CAP), but occasionally we'll do it worse, or no differently. We will still have to sell into overseas markets and so largely, I suspect many regulations, including food regulations, will remain the same. All the stuff about bendy bananas and what constitutes free range etc is petty stuff, beloved of tabloid newspapers, but largely misreported and / or an irrelevance. The fact that people can get so enraged by these stories, amazes me.

    • The Sky article says the manager has apologised. Apparently, according to the article the person who said they'd apply on Rachel and her husband behalf left and didn't hand the job on.
