You need waterproof matches;)

I tried those. The extra long non-safety matches fire up nicely against a rasp under water. Try it!

What where you trying to set fire too under water?

Seph’s hobby is deep-sea welding. Didn’t you know?

Hydrogen, of course. Must have worked because the flame flared.

Sigh! How about getting back to the topic?

I think the issue is more the need to chlorinate the chicken. Our farming standards are higher so we don't have Sam and Ella and don't need to deal with poultry in ways that US do.

Sam and Ella are always lurking, often it's not the product at fault but the preparation before cooking ;)

It's really good to be outside the EU. Can the Remainers counter that?

Speak to a British entrepreneur and they'll counter that. Such people are being thrown under the Boris bus as he pursues the red wall vote instead.

Well, those were the two usual suspects I thought would come back to rubbish my assertion.

The price of Brexit was always going to be a phase of re-adjustment. The wider benefit to the UK public (especially fighting Covid) matters more than than the gripes of businesses who need to get to grips with the challenges.

Would you Remainers have preferred to have been part of the EU's vaccine procurement and distribution policy?

You mean delivering on their wishes.

No, because if they did that they wouldn't have halved TfN's budget. I mean a more left-wing interventionist approach to business.

No but like the Euro and Shengen we don't have to eat everything just because it's on the menu.
What should that cheese producer do? Move to the EU?

What should the average Brit have done had we stayed in the EU during the Pandemic?

Like I said, the cheese producer needs to adjust.
