All so unnecessary. If onlyBoJo hadn't misread Rule Britannia as "Britannia waives the rules" we wouldn't be in this fine mess. :D

So what - chlorinated chicken. People can take it or leave it, knowing that bacteria on the skin have been killed off.

I'd rather leave it and I'd rather not have to ask every single restaurant and takeaway I ever visit if they use it or not.

I don't know why people are so happy and willing to dump food standards.

Did we get another "remain parliament"? That was the last excuse when the government tried to break the law.

Interesting memo from Jonathan Jones to 1,500 civil cervants reproduced by ITV's Robert Peston. Right-winger Peston also notes of BoJo's government, "Their supposed Whitehall purge looks more like a Whitehall farce."

Quote:

“Notwithstanding the ‘breach of international’ law” the cabinet secretary “has determined that ministers and officials are operating in accordance with their obligations under the ministerial code and civil service code”.

It has nothing to do with food standards per se. The EU says it has no safety concerns over chlorinated chicken.

I just love that the EU are losing their Sh|t over this, reading the articles on the news apps tonight is brilliant.

It’s like an exHusband/wife trying to tell you what to do.

Apparently, "Difficult and highly exceptional circumstances" is the new "In a limited and specific way"...

If I credit the government, and I don’t want to - I don’t know if it is intentional. But this is the perfect negotiation tactic.

It basically puts out there that we are doubling down on a potential no deal.
