All because of Bexshit.

Three raspberries? That's a bit harsh

After growing my own tomatoes I cannot eat another store bought tomato. They pick them green and gas them to turn them red and they have no flavor.

Maybe Texas and Florida can bus you some illegals.

Not sure I could manage 3 whole raspberries.

Capitalism. Yay!

the fuck am I to do with three god damned raspberries?

Just grow your own..

U and every thick news outlet are to blame for this crap there is going to be a shortage of this or that And all the sheep run out and buy it whether they need it or not causing the shortage where if u didn’t know about it wouldn’t rush out and buy it just shut ur mouths

This is every kids dream. NO veg.

Oh well, mange tout Rodney, mange tout..

Try eating something in season!

Another Brexit Benefit!!! Their trying to starve us more than we already are!!

Plenty in our Tesco again today. The fear is being pushed by the media once again. Remember the 'fuel crisis'?

For sale. Slightly over ripe but would be ok in chutney or animal feed. 🍅TomatoShortages morocco tomato brexit

Real Reason.👇

Currently in Algarve no shortage here local Sunday markets full of local produce and the supermarkets also have no shortage of any fruit or vegetables

Again, a British thing, just like cost of living! Thank you Mr Sunak.

If you can go to the local farms.

The Unacceptable Face Of British Journalism SackKayBurley

LOL - perhaps 3 punnets of raspberries *I mean I can't even.....

Brexit voters don’t eat fruit and veg anyway, so I doubt they are arsed.

Look, I live in Germany. Our supermarkets are fully stocked. The weather is fine. We’re doing fine. Gosh, I wonder what the problem in the UK could POSSIBLY be…

No! It’s Brexshit and we all know that it’s Brexshit. Why cover up?

Well why are they not in short supply in Europe too?...because in Spain and France ( non Brexit counties) I've seen no shortages.

🤨

Please a little more honesty in your reporting.

Why are European countries not experiencing this then

Back to my diet of fruit pastilles for my 5 a day.

Utter nonsense, there are no shortages in France and Spain.

but that is not true..is it.... (A European)

It’s Brexit lads. No shortages in other countries.

Bad weather? Really?

Can’t believe sky news is buying this nonsense. Bad weather doesn’t stop European countries to have veggies, all countries are packed with supplies.

If the shortages of supply in the UK are due to bad weather in Spain and Morrice how do they and you explain the fact that there are no shortages of any produce in France or Holland or Belgium or Germany? Why just UK?

Tomato’s are rare as rocking horse shit atm. Managed to bag a couple of not so ripe ones from Asda

Welcome to Brexit. You get what you deserve.

Nothing to do with gas prices and farmers not wanting to grow for a loss

How is this we are in winter still and we don’t grow them that time of year think it’s a excuse to raise prices

Don't mention it! Do not mention IT!

Stop lying it’s due to Brexshit!

What a load of nonsense, I speak regularly to clients in Europe. They have no supply issues at all. Could it be something to do with the B word. The government would not admit the truth anyway.

Bad weather 🤣🤣🤣

Bollocks pay farmers a fair rate and there would be plenty on the shelves this is just like the egg shortage a few months back

Nothing to do with the astronomical price increase in fertiliser and land grab going on.

Remember to add that it's only the UK that has problems. We will be eating fruit from tins and fray bentos pies soon. Country has gone to shit.

Bollocks, it's Brexit Bonuses

Don't start any panic buying on vegetables with these coverages

This is the result of on demand all year round out of season fruit and vegetables. If we went back to seasonal, it wouldn't be so much of a problem.

Nothing to do with the weather stop gas lighting

Liars. It's got absolutely NOTHING to do with bad weather, and EVERYTHING to do with BREXIT.

Oh Headline beneath you. Do your job and investigate.

Europe supermarkets are well stocked up - so bad weather doesn’t effect them then ? It’s fu king brexit - don’t make up shit

Normal supply in France!

Stop Lying Sky Spews, it’s got nothing to do with the weather in Europe, it’s Brexit!

Here we go, another made up price hike!

They need to ketchup on these tomato deliveries!

Nothing to do with bad weather . Brexshit

You spelled Brexit wrong

How come the 'bad weather shortages' are only affecting the UK?

Asda and Morrisons limit sales of some fruit and vegetablesSupermarkets face shortages of some fresh produce, but Tesco and others are not limiting sales. You quote a person saying 'it's not brexit or at least I dont think so'. You don't mention in Europe there are no shortages of these fruits & veg. Can you explain this? Do the tomatoes bound for EU countries ripen happily while those destined for UK &Ireland fall from the vine? It’s a relatively new phenomenon to expect to eat summer veg in the winter. Here we are folks. This Tory government and Brexit has finally brought back something nostalgic for you from the Second World War. Rationing. Ah, back to the good old days finally. None of this new-fangled access to plentiful food lark, we managed before.
