It's official. After Brexit Britain will banish all that foreign muck like pizzas, garlic bread, Greek style yogurt, Sea Bass, Tuna, oranges, Falafal, Salsa, Biltong, Sauerkraut, Bratwurst, kebab.................

Yay we're going back to 'gruel'. The diet that made Britain Great and left a reputation around the world for or cricket our fairness and our food. Yay for scurvy. Huzzah for popular democracy, the diet that gave us Cameron, May and Johnson.

Yikes! The U.K. food production could go either way after Brexit.

Secretary of state at Defra, Gove is working on drafting the agriculture bill meant to take us out of the common agricultural policy, but 40% of all European legislation relates to food and agriculture; 80% of all UK food legislation has been negotiated in the EU.

Free of EU competition rules, Gove could use the lever of government procurement to favour healthy British food. He could adopt a joined-up policy and target subsidies to increase production of more fruit and vegetables, less sugar and intensive meat production.

He could insist that continued access to foreign labour is tied to the industry, improving what are often appalling working conditions and pay so British workers are drawn back to jobs they now shun.
