Oh, it's just like being in the EU again! Remember the sausages debacle, all whipped up by the dumb media?

I can't make sense of the OP, but love Oxford marmalade, so if that is going to be reduced, I will applaud. I'm sure the budget will have more important considerations, though.

I'm less concerned about gherkins.

Well, according to this morning's BBC News website.

Mr Healey plans to remove import taxes on certain staples in an attempt to ease the cost-of-living crisis.

Hmmm.......I truly can't imagine Oxford marmalade and gherkins in the same sandwich though.

But I can't wait for the Budget to find out which other quirky delights the Great British Public will be offered......
