More signs of the adjustment to Brexit. Covid no doubt playing its part too.

Brexit: Vegetable producer says labour shortage means food is being thrown away

One of the country's biggest vegetable producers says it is losing thousands of pounds a week and having to throw away food due to a labour shortage.

The workforce at Alfred G Pearce, based near King's Lynn, Norfolk, is 20% to 30% down on previous years.

Business development manager Jack Pearce said the Covid-19 pandemic and Brexit were to blame.

The Home Office said employers should "invest in the domestic work force" rather than labour from abroad.

A second company, Freshlands Farm, based in Ramsey, Cambridgeshire, said it had lost tens of thousands of pumpkins as it had not been able to hire any workers to clear weeds from the fields.
