Struggling to understand what the issue is. This 'deal' simply cannot be allowed to pass for a variety of reasons, not least this dreadful backstop which is an effective EU jackboot on our throats for ever. We are legally due to leave on March 29th and if the EU will not grant an extension, then that is it. Done and dusted. As far as I am concerned, it matters not a jot that MP's voted against leaving without a deal. That was never part of the A50 process. It's called democracy which you're usually ever so keen to harp on about

I don't imagine that American food standards for chicken are any worse than ours which are pretty poor and driven by the public's demand for cheap chicken at any price. Interesting article here [Link] You don’t imagine But I have researched. I set up The Meat Hygiene Service. And did you actually read your linked article? Edited by Mapletree (20 Mar 2019 10.11pm)

Have had to conclude that May is utterly insane. A emergency public statement that appears to blame everybody apart from her. And once again, saying that we are not leaving on March 29th. When patently, and in law, we are. She needs removing from office. Lets have another election rather than this insanity.

My understanding is that it is not that meat is chlorinated but rather it is such an effective method of killing off any potential nasties, that lower animal welfare standards can be allowed. Why bother spending so much money on ensuring that meat is fit for consumption at the point of slaughter when you can render it safer at a later stage?

Read Midlands link and specifically the part about salmonella Plus the soppy yoof kind of care about social responsibility and welfare nowadays.

I don't particularly care about the ins and outs to be honest. As others have said, given how litigious the US is, then any genuine health risks would have already been fully exposed and millions paid out. The actual issue here is political. One of the primary drivers, and one I do have some sympathy with, behind this backstop lunacy is because the EU is, quite rightly, looking to prevent the UK from being able to import tariff free beef which will damage the Irish economy in particular. Scare stories about chlorinated Chicken are part of this. The EU's job is to keep the UK locked into its protectionist policies. We leave, and food prices tumble, which I am absolutely confident they will do within 12 months, and the EU is faced with a huge crisis as others see that happening and demand to know why they are still paying over the top prices. Now I don't blame the EU for attempting to do that. What I struggle with is why our establishment is so wedded to the idea that it is fine for the British consumer to be over-charged for the food they eat.

Our food is better quality than anywhere else in the world. I for one do not want to see a race to the bottom. Presumably you feel the same way about fireworks and building materials. Why do we need regulation, the market will manage it Simple naivety.
