Does anyone know what this actually means if the Brexit talks go awry. This is not a political post but I'm wondering what information is out there regarding our food supplies. It wasn't easy getting hold of certain foods during the first lockdown, are we in for more of the same? I can manage without tinned tomatoes, is there going to be an unexpected run on baked beans?!

If needed I can walk up the road to one of our local farms and I know the meat has been produced there, I'm not a great meat eater but these places do exist.

It's unusual for farms to have their own slaughter facilities nowadays. Are you sure the animals have not made a significant journey first as live stock then as a carcass?

They may not have the facilities themselves but take the animal to a local abattoir.

Yes, but it is all guess work and not all things are as they seem.
