Oh no! Anyways…
But NHS gets more funding after Brexit, right? … right?!
Well at least they got their borders back. No more pesky East-Europeans stealing their construction and nursing jobs.
Now they are getting immigrants which will radically enrich UK’s way of life.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Data shared with the Guardian shows that in the three years since leaving the single market, exporters of foods of animal origin have had to pay the sums to secure sign-offs by vets before they can send their shipments.
The extra costs have resulted in a sharp fall in exports, particularly among smaller producers, with the value of meat products sent to the EU down by 17% since 2019.
Since December 2020, the month before the UK left the single market, more than 852,000 certificates have been requested by exporters, according to analysis by the Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) Certification Working Group, which brings together trade bodies such as the Fresh Produce Consortium, Dairy UK and the Road Haulage Association.
Peter Hardwick, the trade policy adviser at the British Meat Processors Association, said the extra costs had been “catastrophic” for some smaller companies.
BMPA also calculated that the food exporters, which generally operate on margins of about 2%, will have had to make £8.5bn extra sales just to absorb the costs.
Hardwick said many bigger companies had no option but to take the hit with these new costs, and this was resulting in smaller profits, or, in some cases, higher prices for consumers.
