Brexit has already brought accountablilty back to the people, just look at all the whinging over this chicken issue, if TTIP went ahead, we'd be stuck with it and other things would have been bigger issues.

No I wouldn't. Specific issues and challenges arise which need to be treated in the short term whilst long term solutions and controls are found.
I want individual solutions to individual problems.
Chlorine in USA is used in exactly the same way as antibiotics. As a blanket solution. Blasting the whole chicken and chicken food chain with antibiotics to combat health challenges due to production methods. Then blasting the slaughtered meat with chlorine to combat issues arising due to less than hygienic processes!

It's call "cheap food". Bolloks to that!

I have higher expectations for myself and my family!
So what is your view on chlorine in water and washing food processing plants oh and in swimming pools?

I've seen a butcher wipe a pig carcass with a very weak bleached water when it's got a bit sticky while he's been working on it.
Better safe than sorry.
It never hurt me.
So let's not pretend cleansing doesn't happen here already.

We have limited tolerance to most chemicals.
Chlorine in water is I'm afraid necessary to control dangerous infection in humans.
There is no need whatsoever to wash meat in chlorine if basic hygiene precautions are observed in the first instance.
I'll take the level of chlorine in drinking water as the max I can safely deal with.
Wouldn't put my dog in a swimming pool never mind myself!

But carry on Making America Great Again. You know they will look after your interests in the end.

As usual you can't help showing your bias.

The issue is Chlorine in chicken not Trump.

As I understand it the idea is to kill food poisoning bugs ... as long as there is not a danger to human health then there is only an upside.

Just think of the chance for UK farmers when imports face tariffs ... shame you won't be able to benefit though eh ?

So basically you already dispose of all your products accross a common market whilst at the same time get access to good quality affordable seasonal labour and any historical products are protected AND get financial subsidies but you fancy taking a punt on trying your hand at the global market via WTO tarrifis and think it's a grand idea to go "all in"?

No wonder the NFU are worried, they've just realised their members are morons.

Not associating Trump with chlorine.
Associating trade deal with America inevitably leading to accepting American food standards and the simple fact that they know Brexit Britain will badly need deals. The outcome will be a good deal for Uncle Sam and not so good for Britain.

We buy at CostCo ... looks to me as though the UK already accepts most USA food standards.

Really I cannot see what the problem is ... the Netherlands injects chicken with protein ... Brussels sells nags as beef ... pot calls kettle black.

I realise that you hav eno idea what you are posting about and are best ignored, but I just thought I would let you know that since I am not an NFU member I am not includied in your list of morons.

I will ask you two simple questions and hope to receive two simple answers. Why did you spend so much time today posting on this forum? I assume that you are unemployed so had plenty of spare time. Can you confirm that you are unemployed?

At 28 you are not a child and so should have learned something from your years of education. OK, more questions. What is your level of education? Have you ever had employment, and if so, what as?

Just like to know what sort of person I am dealing with so that I can use words that will be understood by the recipient.
