and of a much lower standard. and as i said in my first post "unless it drops it standards "
and tell me how are UK farmers going to cope with having to stick to the High standards set by westminster for UK uk farmers while importing low standard sh!t for else were

and also currently we have NO TRADE deals with any major food producing countries which means FULL wto tariffs on all imported food
These high food standards that let horse meat to be sold as beef!

Sorry I cannot let this go.
I have left the Brexit debate since the election of Boris as it was quite obvious that remain was dead. Whatever I thought then was quite firmly democratically put to one side for a long time.
However one thing the British people did vote for, was “ The easiest deal in History” Boris’s very words.
When did he say that and what vote are you talking about?

Boris went to the country in December 2019 saying, quite clearly, there was an oven ready deal. Or was I on a different planet.?

Further evidence to me that firstly Johnson and his Tory mates will say anything and yet again more lies and fibs from Brexiters. They just cannot help themselves.
the oven ready deal was the withdrawal agreement, which is where we are now

Country won't starve with no deal, plenty of food available and that's before sales of my road verge planted machines skyrocket.

Death throes? Nah!

Plenty of sheep and fish to eat.
And look at the amount of fruit and veg dumped for stock feed, used for power or just ploughed in.
Much of that fruit and veg waste, like the carrots outside the art school, is only substandard to the eye. Those carrots were mainly supermarket prepack rejects and posed no problems with being used for human consumption.

the reason why so much is exported to the UK is because the UK needs it. so the UK going to have to keep on buying it unless it drops it standards or lets people starve

also thanks to Brois betrayal bill N.Ireland will have to follow EU standards.

Which kind of is the point, supply and demand are king in this day and age, if there is a demand for more beef in the UK they will find a way to import it from somewhere, the same applies to any product exported/imported to/from any country in the world.
Trade deals are a way of keeping lots of beaureaucrats and civil servants in jobs and making politicians feel good about themselves. The real people doing the trading are the businesses of the country who will always find a way.

Is that a De Dion Bouton by any chance?

Could be, but the Renault of that period is similar, but I suspect it's a generic one made up by the artist. As in 1903 the vast majority of the cars on the roads in the UK were French and I think the De Dion- Bouton and Renault would have been a fairly common sight.
