Ah, I see we call it Pilgrims Choice in UK. Kerrygold in Europe and USA, and another brand for China, Jin Kai Li.

Cheddar .... UK just needs our cheddar. Tariff or not, it is the product of choice. Even Lizzie over in the palace prefers our stuff on her crackers to anything else she can pick up in Sainsbury’s.
If it has the Kerrygold label, it sells anywhere at a premium.

That's what the Germans thought about their Russian cheese market. Oops.

That’s rather simple. UK exports €1.4 billion red meat. ROI exports €3.8 billion proper red meat.
Fifty percent of total ROI meat goes to UK. Therefore €1.9 billion goes from ROI to UK.
So take it you consume your own stuff, caus you can’t export it due to tariffs. We lose our UK market, but take your export market. Now we are down €0.5 billion. No prob, we are now shipping and expanding volumes to USA, Japan and China.

I keep thinking about the words used by BJ & DD to resign.

I leads me to ponder if the only game in town is to force the UK to have another Referendum.

The next thought is, is May in on this plan & the deal making is all a front. Is she putting on an oscar performance.

Your heading could have been shorter. 10 weeks to go for some really busy decisions and they are out on Summer Recess for 9 weeks, same in 2016 when Cameron resigned and they all bogged off for their recess and to elect a new Leader. All leave (and I mean ALL leave) should have been cancelled this year

With regard to both the UK market and the others, where have you factored in currency fluctuation?

The irony of the advert on the bottom of the above screenshot is not lost on me.

Having just watched the documentary '13 Hours that Saved Britain', about the turning point Battle of Britain Day in WW2, and how all of Britain stood firm together united against a common enemy, it's scary to realise just how weak and divided a nation we've become since 1940. The documentary ends with the words:

"The British people maintained their freedom and secured their island home from invasion".

That didn't last long, did it.
