    Summary

    Donald Trump warned the UK must accept chlorinated US chicken imports if it wants relief from new 10% tariffs on British exports.

    The U.K. has long reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining high food standards, with polling showing 80% of Britons oppose a ch imports.

    Critics argue chlorinated chicken stems from poorer production hygiene, with studies showing high bacteria rates in US chicken.

    Farming advocates warn a US trade deal with lower standards would be "devastating for British farming."

        Not that I wouldn't welcome UK back (under equal conditions to all new-joiners, of course), speed-running is not something EU is capable of. Nor is UK. They will not like having to accept the same deal everyone else has to when they had a lot of exceptions for everything. It will take ages before some kind of agreement is reached.

          I don't see it happening anytime soon. To rejoin, they woukd have to accept all the new rules, one of them is adopting the Euro as currency. I'm not sure the English voters would be willing to abandon the Pound. Scottish, Welsh an Irish, maybe.

                          Not to mention, there's at least one member state that will obstruct anything beneficial because the current dictator benefits from the chaos.

                            The first time around, I said I didn't want him dead because I wanted him to face justice. I wanted him to rot in a cell while he watched the world prosper without him in power and see his efforts dismantled.

                            That was misguided.

                              Studies have shown that washing food in chlorine doesn't actually work as US authorities think. It can put the bacteria into a survival state called VBNC, viable but non-culturable. This means labs cannot culture the bacteria to test for its presence, but it is present and can still cause illness. It hides the problem, allowing for lower safety practices in favor of productivity and profit. Here is one such study: https://journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.1128/mbio.00540-18

                                  If you accept, there's no guarantee he won't change the deal later. He's a chud.

                                      How is it even legal for the US to wash chicken with Chlorine ? Sounds like so ridiculous.

                                        Studies have shown that washing food in chlorine doesn't actually work as US authorities think. It can put the bacteria into a survival state called VBNC, viable but non-culturable. This means labs cannot culture the bacteria to test for its presence, but it is present and can still cause illness. It hides the problem, allowing for lower safety practices in favor of productivity and profit. Here is one such study: https://journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.1128/mbio.00540-18

                                        It hides the problem

                                        Seems to be working as intended

                                          Summary

                                          Donald Trump warned the UK must accept chlorinated US chicken imports if it wants relief from new 10% tariffs on British exports.

                                          The U.K. has long reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining high food standards, with polling showing 80% of Britons oppose a ch imports.

                                          Critics argue chlorinated chicken stems from poorer production hygiene, with studies showing high bacteria rates in US chicken.

                                          Farming advocates warn a US trade deal with lower standards would be "devastating for British farming."
