British pies to be banned from EU unless from Brussels-approved farms
New EU food safety regulation – coming into force next March – is ‘concerning’ exporters, MPs told

Pies made in Britain will be banned from export to the EU if their ingredients do not come from an “approved” farm or factory, trade experts have warned MPs.
A new Brussels food safety regulation – to come into force in March next year – is alarming companies that fear Brexit will impose further barriers to sales, an inquiry heard.
Another casualty of the disastorous Brexit farce. It is shit on so many levels. The citizens of the EU would like to know where there food comes from. The UK has been desperately signin deals with the likes of Australia where they inject their livestock with all sorts of shit.
Its probably not a huge hit to the country economy but it will hit home in Northern Ireland which is considered to be a nominalpart of the EU under the Brexit deal. British producers will need to jump through many hoops in order to sell UK pies to the province and many will think its not worth the bother.
Pies are an important part of British life and this may be a step too far for the proddy population. I do have some sympathy with them on this matter.
A great example of "taking back control" after the lying brexit campaign.
