Meanwhile, the hopes of those Brexiters that we'll have a frictionless, "light-touch" border between the UK and the EU, or "all the benefits of the single market and customs union" look set to be dashed.
According to the Dutch customs authorities, as of 30 March 2019 more than a hundred well-trained extra customs officers will be required in the Rotterdam Rijnmond area.

"The head of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), Christine Lagarde, has hit back at Brexiteers' claim that the organisation badly misjudged the economic impact of the referendum vote.
Speaking in London at the launch of the fund’s annual assessment of the UK economy, Ms Lagarde insisted the IMF’s pre-referendum warnings and forecasts had been broadly vindicated..."

This is an interesting development. It appears we are now trying to muzzle the US in terms of what they say too. Good luck with that.

Good to see our old friend chlorinated chicken is back too.
As a side note to the story he writes that of the UK trade delegation sent to Washington earlier this year, 0 of the 27 sent by our government were experienced trade negotiators, against the 20 on the US side. We are so going to get our trousers pulled down in any future talks...1 -
I think Brexiters still think we live in a world where we send a group of moustached diplomats in 3-piece suits to embassies in exotic locations, drink some sherry, play a game of cricket with the natives then return with a schooner laden with tea, furs and spices. At least that's the impression Boris and co give as they wander about singing racist nursery rhymes and referring to piccaninnies.Bournemouth Addick said:This is an interesting development. It appears we are now trying to muzzle the US in terms of what they say too. Goid luck with that.

You think wrong. What you claim to be tongue in cheek seems/appears/are blatantly obvious thinly veiled digs, wrapped up in your usual faux emotive musings, that you put out there to sensationalise everything that opposes what you believe (which changes from one year to the next, depending on what's popular at the time).

When you're pulled up on it it's always others that spectacularly miss the point, don't get it or they're just little Englanders that dont have the cranial capacity that you delude yourself as having. Another deluge of over the top emotion driven nonsense generally follows, usually aimed at the person that questions you, with the intention of slandering them or painting them as being the antichrist so that others won't intervene for fear of getting caught up in your narcissistic ranting.

While I have no doubt that you are purchasing only West Country Farmhouse Cheddar (the one with the handy PDO status) or the like, sourced from your local artisanal/hipster Cheesemonger, it is worth pointing out that significant quantities of Cheddar sold in the UK (roughly a third) are produced in Ireland.Imissthepeanutman said:I agree with Gove on cheese.
Stilton and English Cheddar for me. None of that foreign muck.
And I'm not sure how, in the the course of an ordinary supermarket shopping experience (with the possible exception of M&S), even where Cheddar is clearly (and possibly even accurately) labelled as produced in the UK, it would be that easy to avoid Scottish, Welsh, or Northern Irish cheeses, unless you are to buy PDO varieties.
Luckily, for Stilton, because it has PDO status, all cheeses called Stilton must be made with local milk in either Derbyshire, Leicestershire or Nottinghamshire.
Very useful thing that PDO designation....2 -

While I have no doubt that you are purchasing only West Country Farmhouse Cheddar (the one with the handy PDO status) or the like, sourced from your local artisanal/hipster Cheesemonger, it is worth pointing out that significant quantities of Cheddar sold in the UK (roughly a third) are produced in Ireland.Imissthepeanutman said:I agree with Gove on cheese.
Stilton and English Cheddar for me. None of that foreign muck.
And I'm not sure how, in the the course of an ordinary supermarket shopping experience (with the possible exception of M&S), even where Cheddar is clearly (and possibly even accurately) labelled as produced in the UK, it would be that easy to avoid Scottish, Welsh, or Northern Irish cheeses, unless you are to buy PDO varieties.
Luckily, for Stilton, because it has PDO status, all cheeses called Stilton must be made with local milk in either Derbyshire, Leicestershire or Nottinghamshire.
Very useful thing that PDO designation....

Good to see our old friend chlorinated chicken is back.
As a side note to the story he writes that of the UK trade delegation sent to Washington earlier this year, 0 of the 27 sent by our government were experienced trade negotiators, against the 20 on the US side. We are so going to get our trousers pulled down in any future talks...

Somerset Cheddar is covered by the West Country Farmhouse Cheddar PDO designation.Imissthepeanutman said:
Somerset actually. The Stilton designation well predates the EU. In fact I am sure we had Stilton before Monsieur De Gaulle, Mitterrand and Kohl.NornIrishAddick said:
While I have no doubt that you are purchasing only West Country Farmhouse Cheddar (the one with the handy PDO status) or the like, sourced from your local artisanal/hipster Cheesemonger, it is worth pointing out that significant quantities of Cheddar sold in the UK (roughly a third) are produced in Ireland.Imissthepeanutman said:I agree with Gove on cheese.

Very useful thing that PDO designation....
Yes, the Stilton name predates the EU, as does that of Cheddar, but Stilton has PDO status, which means that only those blue cheeses meeting the criteria for that designation may be called Stilton which is why that, while you may buy Irish Cheddar, you can only buy Cashel Blue, rather than Irish Stilton.
It is something of considerable value to Stilton producers (and, I would expect, dairy farmers within the catchment area) because it allows them enhanced income.
PDO (and PGI) designation is an EU initiative and is very successful, some non-EU products are covered (for a mix of EEA and accession countries, for which I'm assuming that Turkey is still an aceession state).
Protection of PDO status products outside the EU is largely achieved through bilateral treaties arranged by the EU.
Whether it continues to be applicable to UK produce will, no doubt, be one of the issues on which the razor-sharp intellect of, that fanatic about detail, David Davis will currently be trained - I look forward to his inevitable glorious success in persuading the EU to do precisely what it always wanted to do in this part, as in the other elements, of the Article 50 negotiations after Christmas...5
