A man in Bath has been left angry at the lack of support for UK farmers and food producers after finding an abundance of foreign food on sale.
Edward Kynaston wrote a letter to the Bath Chronicle newspaper complaining that foods such as Irish beef, Dutch cheeses and Norwegian salmon were all stocked on a recent visit to a Tesco supermarket.
However, the majority of these foods can be produced in Britain, so he wondered why the supermarket giants aren’t sourcing from within our own borders.

He wrote: “It would appear that we are much more cooperative with fresh food imports from the EU, but they don’t make this approach any more lenient and sane.
“In fact, they seem determined to disrupt British fresh food and fish as much as possible, just to upset the UK for having the audacity to leave their club.”
Mr Kynaston said it was time for the British public to “stand up and support their farmers and food producers”.
The letter comes as national carbon dioxide shortages are leaving many supermarket shelves empty, with warnings already that some families may have to enjoy Christmas dinners without a turkey.
While attacking the EU in his letter, Mr Kynaston highlighted the French as a particular protagonist in this problem.
He asserted that “there are also many alternatives to overpriced French wines.
“If French farmers and vineyards see a sharp drop in their exports to the UK as a result, they will soon demonstrate to Mr. Macron’s government that common sense prevails.”
His focus, however, has shifted from food shortages to the recent feud over the new ‘Aukus’ submarine deal.
The three-way defense agreement signed by Australia, the United States and the United Kingdom, which will see the latter help supply Australia with new nuclear submarines, has sparked outrage in France.
He concluded by saying “A little piece of news to brighten the horizon. The French shipbuilding industry has just lost an order to build 12 diesel submarines to the benefit of Britain and the United States which are building submarines. nuclear-powered sailors more suited to this use “.
It’s fair to say that Kynaston isn’t a fan of the lack of support for British farmers, or the French in this case.
