The UK farmers seem to disagree...See the link above..."The Voice of the UK Dairy Industry"...Likewise today on Radio 4 we see that onions could be a problem and the Dutch growers are getting agitated.. Apparently loads of our onions come from the EU/Holland...Now during World War Two I think onions were in short supply as even then they were imported.."HP Sauce" also comes from Holland buy the way...

But I thought one or your claimed USP for Brexit was we could declare zero tariffs on food imports ( just like there are on imports from the EU now) so there’d be lots of cheap food?

Never forget that if you stick your head in the sand eventually the Reality Bus slaps you up the arse. No doubt some on here would actually like that.... A brexiteer, of which there are lots on here but unfortunately they're all really busy atm, has yet to come up with any verifiable positives around exiting the EU.
