Re: [Updated] The UK’s future relationship with the EU

Only asking ... but if chlorine/lactic acid washing kills the surface bacteria, why are we worried about earlier stage hygiene? Just because the EU says so?

We would have to follow whatever rules they set.

The EU provides massive levels of state aid to whole countries, eg Poland 9billion/year.
Quite. How can there be a 'level playing field' between the tiny UK versus the collective EU? It is a falsely conceived concept because they are scared stiff of competition. The EU sets throttling rules across their board and then expects us to abide by those rules.

To all Remainers: Sovereignty matters.
