Catherine McBride OBE Faisal Islam You've ignored the cumulative effect that exports to the EU, our largest & closest market, are down 27%! It doesn't matter if thats large business or SME's, both feed into the same economy... As for nuts, its an ingredient issue, you won't make a Korma ready meal in the UK...
