If farmers were not so greedy then they would be able to compete with EU produce.

We will continue to import and export after 31st December. I know the London liberals are worried they won't be able to buy French cheese and wine for their dinner parties, but it will be fine. Its in everyone's interest to trade. We won't cut our nose off to spite our face, and the EU won't allow EU members to lose trade as a result of our exit. Just give it time and we'll find a "new normal" ??

Looking forward to seeing more opportunities for British producers to step up their production to fill any demand left by what the EU is no longer supplying.

I have long chosen to bur British over any other nation to support our domestic producers. Be nice to see this become the norm.

Perhaps you should start a new business and produce your own snails and frogs. It could be a nice earner for you. Who needs the French? Removed

Most of the Brexiteers are not worried about a lack of fruit and veg. They would be more worried if there was a shortage of pot noodles.
