**** ALERT **** We may be heading for an impending Co2 crisis. The owner of two North of England fertiliser plants has just announced they will be suspending production INDEFINITELY due to high gas prices. The same plants caused the 2018 Co2 supply crisis on.ft.com/3kfd1WV

Looking out for the blue Scotch label is the best way to ensure that you're buying meat with Field Cred, raised and processed to the highest standards. Share this video help your followers understand the meaning behind the Scotch label and why it's so important to #makeitscotch

Is our Government secretly happy to see our domestic food production diminished and replaced with a reliance on imported food? Nick Allen was interviewed about this prospect and you can read his comments here: bit.ly/3En8FFg

More grace period for EU exporters sending goods to the UK. Requirements for Export Health Certificates, pre-notification, physical checks and safety/security declarations all pushed back to 2022. Here are the details from @DavidGHFrost bit.ly/3zalGOH

NEW. As suspected, U.K. delays import checks/controls on goods from EU. Tl:dr More time to get Border Control Posts ready, less likelihood of making shortages worse. Another illustration that “size matters”. U.K. exports to EU face full controls. #brexit

Adam's latest article describes the reasons behind this supply chain crisis and serves to highligt the fact that Government can't simply keep blanking industry and refusing to act to help. bit.ly/3njeRIe @ukhomeoffice

Very stark words from @Foodanddrinkfed's Ian Wright Supply chain disruption "is going to get worse," he tells @ifgevents, with Xmas & new Brexit checks coming down the line Just in time supply chains as the UK has known them are "over" and food shortages will now be "permanent"

Sacre bleu! French border controls get even tighter. A word of warning to any firms who ship into France. We’re hearing reports of border control officials enforcing the new rules to the absolute letter. Read this (short) description of the latest example bit.ly/3nlL3L8
