Arla makes Anchor in the UK under licence. Anchor though is a new zealand coop with a powerful brand, direct imports from nz can resume post brexit

Do you think it might put the price up a bit if we are importing butter from nz as a distress purchase rather than making it here?

But you need to factor in wto tariffs and the costs of delays at customs. That's the main point made by the article.

BS. The UK is free not to level tariffs

But if we didn't with NZ in order to import butter, the MFN principle of WTO means we'd have to do the same with all comers. Not great for domestic production!

1. Preferential deals allow tarifs to be dropped for some countries. EU does this now. 2. I'm anti Corn Law. It's neither my job nor duty to take money from a consumer and give it to a producer.

Ok. So if i agree that yes, we could over time negotiate a free trade deal with nz that might enable lower or no tariffs on imported butter, will you agree that until that FTA is in place after hard Brexit, the cost of imported butter is v likely to rise?

It wont rise. Tarifs can be dropped unilaterally on a temporary basis
