You can’t blame the effects of Covid and Russia invaiding Ukrainian on brexit ffs 🤦‍♂️ Yes we’ve suffered losses that we wouldn’t of if we didn’t choose too brexit … but if Covid and Russia hadn’t happened we were On course too be going pretty well … but the actual result is impossible to know now 🤷🏻‍♂️
Covid and Russia have probably sheltered us from the effects of brexit. Its much harder now to move boatloads of sh!t onto our shores than it was

Agree, but Britain used to be an economic powerhouse of the world , directly in control of the worlds seas , our government’s have not kept up with the realities that when the commonwealth dissolved our importance in the world stage diminished to such an extent that the UK is little more than a place for the seagulls to crap on as they follow the french trawlers fishing our waters
Yet Scotland are seemingly willing to be comparable with the Faroe Isles? ;)

It's supply & demand not brexit ffs.
Maybe so, but the EU is/was broken I’m glad we’re nearly out , half are bankrupt the others have no morals.......of the two major world events that have happened , neither is Brexit
Lambs just fully £3 live ,
£6.30 dead
Cattle stand on £4.48
Cows seem ok £1,90 ish live
£4.15 dead
Old ewes less £-£15 on ten days ago

Pre covid sheep were good exchange rates due to brexit made a massive difference the rest is supply and demand, there's probably been a few more ewes tupped this last couple of years which isn't helping
