HMRC have published some figures to show that food and drink exports fell by 2bn in the first 3 months since Brexit.

Dairy was down a massive 90%? and there were losses across the board.

The figures show that rather it being a teething issue as the Tories would have us believe it is in fact structural and likely to continue unless there is some sort of move towards say the SM.

How we have dropped so low from a respected country to a den of thieves and liars that no-one, not any country in the international community can trust.

This get it right! Didn’t Johnson say Brexit would be a titanic success?

I see The Times that champion of Brexit is beginning to change its mind. It is still in the stage of it’s not all Brexit, but is now saying something that was unthinkable just a few months ago, that Brexit can be blamed for some of our problems.

I love the picture, thanks vegansrock

I think it's just a script they all stick to, Pippa. It's rife on twitter, too...

The Times was always pro Remain. So no change there.
