Then buy British. Problem solved.

The cheaper US chicken would be greatly appreciated by those who find it difficult to get by.

So everyone should be happy.

Are you seriously telling us that the UK is not able to pass legislation? Leaving the EU does not in itself remove it, nor does it mean we can't change it in the future.

We can do what is best for this country after Brexit, basically.

The problem is that chlorine washing is not effective enough at reducing contamination. The bugs can hide under folds of skin, only to start breeding again when conditions permit. This is why ensuring chickens are as salmonella free as possible in the first place is better. US bred chickens live in conditions that spread salmonella, campylobacter & streptococcus.

Washing chicken at home is not recommended as this spreads any contamination further with hidden spray from the washing process.
More nonsense. I feel so sorry for all those sick Americans.

Not biting on your vegan menu, Mr K. Meat all the way for me. Always.

That is simplistic in the extreme! There will still be many leavers who vote for the Conservatives or Labour. Both are mandated to leave the EU.
