UK farmers were idiots to vote for Brexit. It was always going to be no change (regulation alignment) or standards drop to allow in cheaper food. They got it worse of all worlds as they are expected to maintain standards while cheap food is imported.
They were told this as well. But what they wanted was standards to drop so that they didn’t have to put in as much effort. But somehow also still get paid the same price.
The farmers unions repeatedly warned them that this would happen. It’s 100% their fault and now they’re complaining about it. I have absolutely zero sympathy.
