Bloody hell, the CAP's an even bigger protection racket than I imagined and I wonder what sort of tariffs EU cheese producers will have to pay to export their Roquefort, Camembert and Gorgonzola to the UK, whatever it is I'll bet Mrs Kirkham, Dewlay and Leagrams etc are rubbing their hands in anticipation and taking on extra staff.
I suggest we should all read up on the impact of trading under WTO rules.

Not good.
