@bernardjenkin The Hard Right Tories like you wish to import cheap low quality food that does not meet high EU standards. You think do you that, that should be allowed leak across the border? Get real!
EU says it wants a free trade deal with the UK, with no quantitative restrictions and zero tariffs. So at Dover for eg. risk based customs checks will continue to check for contraband, smuggling, weapons, drugs etc. But you don’t check product stds/mfct content at borders.

The UK is prepared to import cheap food . Cheap food imports frequently lack traceability ,and are hormone treated. The EU cannot allow smuggling of such food across the Irish border into the Republic. The UK at present has the perfect free trade agreement with the EU,.

1 The UK wants all the advantages and none of the negatives. It has a free trade deal with all EU member states. Britain on its own is weaker that the EU BLOCK Will be picked off by China and US in trade negotiations which will take years. Russians are laughing at Brexiteers

2 Trump wants a breakup of EU. That way he can pick off countries individually in trade negotiations. He will soft soap UK but take advantage. 500 million EU block more powerful that 67 million UK when dealing with Trump
