The EU will demand the UK maintains a ban on chlorinated chicken as the price for a trade agreement with Brussels, in a move that protects European meat exports and creates an obstacle to a deal with Donald Trump.
Don’t we wash everything in chlorine already? It’s in our tap water!
I know if we get this food deal with US, I'm turning veggie
It is not about whether we want chlorinated chicken here or not, it is about the fact that it is OUR choice! If those are the terms of the EU, they know where to stick them.
Boycott those awful products...
Honestly why is any compromise to existing food standards up for debate?
'At present, the UK is the fourth-largest poultry meat producer in the EU, and is about 75% self-sufficient in poultry meat.' This could be increased, but given the move to vegetable based products it may not be necessary. Reason we imported chicken was to make it a cheap product
Hallelujah. Thank you EU. X
Yes - food standards matter.
While we are on it, perhaps it is also appropriate to mention the toxins in American produce that are banned in the EU. If the U.K.decides to adopt US food regulations, then the EU will have a problem with buying a number of food products.
Now it's clear, the UK are not dealing with a serious organisation. Love the Guardian breathlessly tweeting this out too 😂😂
UK, you may leave the EU, it's your right to do so, but please, eat shite?
We don't want American chlorinated chicken or lower welfare worm ridden meat.
Is really thought the chlorinated chicken issue has flown the coup? I simply cannot believe a deal turns on this because I am sure some other product does the same as chlorine and we already wash our bagged salad in chlorine. So whats is the actual issue?
What about chlorinated gammon?
