Britain must accept US food standards such as allowing chlorinated chicken and genetically modified crops as part of any post-Brexit trade deal, the head of America’s powerful farming lobby has said.
The comments from Zippy Duval, president of the American Farm Bureau, to the BBC came as British farmers demanded a referendum on any Brexit deal, warning they face “decimation” if the UK crashes out of the EU without an agreement.
The UK has been told by the American farming lobby that it must accept US standards such as allowing chlorinated chicken and the sale of genetically modified crops as part of a post-Brexit trade deal.
Zippy Duval, head of the American Farm Bureau, told the BBC that fears about US practices were not "science-based".
He sounds just like Trump.
Anyway, just another warning that pus laden milk, foodstuffs containing (permitted in US) rodent hairs, beetle bits etc, hormone polluted meat, many GM products and chlorinated chicken are on the way.
