Re: Britain outside the EU
NZ and Aus lamb have been imported for years, perhaps in lesser numbers while we were in the EU.
The biggest difference between their lamb product and the UK's is that the lambs are slaughtered at an earlier age meaning the chops and joints are smaller than UK lamb.
For lamb product the UK farmers can easily compete with them.
Never had to deal with Aus beef when I was a butcher as most of the competition came from Argentina when I was in the trade.
