While the UK government managed to roll over most of the third-country trade deals it had as part of the EU, that did not include Ghana's.
Labour MP Gareth Thomas told the Commons on Monday: "The government's dismal treatment of Ghana - a key Commonwealth ally - is particularly surprising," criticising the UK negotiators for turning up to talks late and poorly briefed, meaning no deal had been done. He added the upshot of the failure to do a deal was cocoa, tuna and bananas arriving in the UK faced heavy tariffs , with that already having happened to two shipments.
Last week, the first of those shipments was mentioned in the House of Lords, after it emerged a tariff of £17,500 had been charged at Portsmouth on bananas from Ghana.Parents of children with severe epilepsy said they had no longer been able to cash their prescriptions for a particular medicinal cannabis oil from the Netherlands.
A max sandwich with salmon and ham - 😋Sad to see poultry dairy seafood exports get affected!🌎
😂😂😂 all the remainers giving it I told you so, it's a BBC story if a packet of crisps fell off the ferry they would make it sound like we are heading for a famine cos of brexit.
Should you retitle it “why are the EU so f****** petty”?
Most welcome precious people
Coronavirus couldn’t have come at a better time for this government. What a smoke screen to cover up all the problems that are happening due to Brexit.
Oh dear, not a confiscated ham sandwich. It’s a disaster. Was it taken by Colonel Mustard in the customs post?
Nothing surprising here.
Are the Tory party writing your agenda?

What doesn't surprise me is the BBC still finding every Avenue to dis Brexit, even though in the great scheme of things they are extremely petty.
Nothing on this list is remotely surprising, terrible journalism to describe this list as a surprise.
truthonahill Surprising? Where have you been in he last 5 years? I thought you were a news service. With journalists. Who can investigate.
All things never discussed/mentioned prior to the leave vote, but hey Britain has its sovereignty, and blue passports, things of no f——-g tangible use to the man in the street.
At least the vegetarians will be happy, less pigs to kill, less salmon to catch.
I would like to reassure all the brexiteers and the Tory faithful that unlike the supermarket shoppers and the hungry school kids the PM is not going short of anything
😂😂 sad sack BBC Remoaners
They are not “surprising” .......
You have things called teething problems this equals wankfest for remainers get over it.
