Re: Britain outside the EU
Seems to me having a southern hemisphere source of meat would be good to continue proper seasonal supply.
The Welsh hill lamb is later in season than the English and low land lamb, then we can look at hogart and mutton too. All following in season, then we bring in NZ lamb while we aren't using ours. Can we do the same with beef? With care and the right deal(s) we get and maybe provide better seasonal produce.
That said once the big retail boys get their finger in it just becomes a numbers thing and smaller producers lose out as they nearly always have done. So buy your meat locally from farm shops, farmers markets etc check providence. It's likely to be better and probably not more expensive than the supermarkets. But then I like spending time buying my meat and others don't or can't.
