Don't worry about it, by the time it comes into play half of NZ will be in trees and the rest will be drowning in red tape, unable to produce anything. Socialist utopia!

UK agrees free trade deal with New Zealand
The government says consumers and businesses will benefit from deal, but it is unlikely to boost growth.
www.bbc.co.uk
The sweeping “in-principle” deal will entirely remove tariffs on most goods produced in New Zealand, making 63 per cent of current exports tariff-free once a final agreement is settled. Beef and sheep meat exports – one of the most contentious aspects of negotiations – will be tariff-free in 15 years.

Aren't we all supposed to be eating a "plant based diet" soon anyway?
Really looking forward to seeing vegetables growing on the heather hill Muir once I've put away the Blackie ewes

I know you're taking masks abit more seriously in Scotland (we're up here at the mo)..... but covid masked cattle
No, that advice was pulled yesterday, if you dare to venture onto the BBC’s website!
then again we also meant to have a "in-principle" trade deal with Australia , which seems to have stalled as they sort out little things like the DETAILS of of the trade deal.
so i'll not be surprised if the NZ deal goes the same way. Big headline about how Boris is out getting trade deals, many years later the deal get work out

So on Radio 4 Today the presenter repeated the mantra of different seasons for lamb win win etc
Fair enough but the ignorant presenter twice in the intro and as part of a question to Minette Batters said UK has Spring lamb and it we want to eat lamb now we need NZ
Yes Minette stated our farmers have been looking at year round supply but no challenge to the false assumption about when our lamb is ready
This Easter lamb stuff drives me f**king nuts

The British prime minister and her husband have decided that UK livestock industry is no longer required. And NFU agree!
Sell up now while you still can. Someone tag the Duck, I can't remember his screen name.

NZ-UK Trade deal - BoJO (who else) "We've scrummed down, we've packed tight, and together we've got the ball over the line and we have a deal. And I think it's a great deal."
Ms Ardern said: "I loved your use of rugby metaphors, but if we were going to continue that on, then naturally it would conclude with the All Blacks winning.
