Brexit. Success? Too early to judge? Disaster?

Chat GPT says ....

 

```The current tomato shortage in the UK is caused by a combination of factors, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global supply chain, unusually cold weather in Spain and other Mediterranean countries where much of the UK's tomatoes are grown, and a lack of seasonal workers due to travel restrictions.```

Awww we've no tomato's. Ahhh well they are out of season anyway. Stopping British farmers producing food 'for the environment' then importing it. Let's not pretend a labour government would encourage more food production..... which is obviously the only serious answer to food security

You will only solve fuel security by reducing the number of people here, Estimates show that the population would need to be around 30 million to allow us to be self sufficient in food, If Immigration had been stopped or capped then this reduction would have happened naturally over time,  But that would not have fitted the globalists agenda.

Going by the amount of fat/obese bstards in any town/city in the UK a fruit and veg shortage ain't gonna affect many, when KFC Maccy D and the kebab houses close then you'll see riots

Probably would cost them 10 times as much in lighting and heating to grow them as it did 12 months ago, The supermarkets are possibly not willing to pay more for them, so consequently they are not worth growing at this time of year anymore.
