Agriculture is in a crisis created by Brexit, and farmers are furious.. as Jacob Rees-Mogg found out.

“Car crash!” exclaimed managing director Andrew Varga, whose Brexit progress I have been following since the referendum. News of the latest Brexit U-turn landed on him on Tuesday out of the blue. All his years of preparation for a new UK product safety mark, all his thousands of pounds wasted, all the uncountable hours and effort were rendered pointless, at a stroke.

FARMING is an issue close to my heart and is an area which deserves far more attention than it gets.

It's seven years since the Brexit vote cast a shadow over Scottish farming and the absence of a new domestic agricultural policy means many of the worst fears are being realised.

WELL, the cat is out of the bag. Brexit visionary Nigel Farage has finally admitted the truth – that Brexit has been an unmitigated disaster for households and businesses across these islands.

Up to this point, Brexit is turning out to be an unmitigated disaster for production agriculture in the UK.

An island nation must trade with its nearest mainland, whatever our new Brexit opportunities minister claims.

The materialisation of a far harder form of Brexit than had been promised by those who lobbied for our departure from the EU has restricted access to our main export markets on the continent in ways which are only beginning to be felt.

Dear Reader, please look away now if you cannot bear any more about the negative effects flowing from the 2016 Referendum decision to withdraw from the European Union.

On trade, finance, migration, food standards and more, the UK suffers fresh ignominy on a daily basis.

A major feature of the 2016 Leave campaign was a refusal to define what, precisely, Brexit would mean.

The Prime Minister's poor post-Brexit trade deals show the desperation of a charlatan who sold the country a pup, writes Kevin Maguire.

Those of us who have been involved with Brexit almost since that fateful day, five years ago next month, when England and Wales voted to leave the EU, sometimes feel as Cassandra must have.

There can be few things more heartbreaking for a farmer or fisherman than to see their produce rotting in the fields, a depot or a container for no good reason.

Wales voted for Brexit by the same margin as the UK overall, 52 to 48 per cent, in sharp contrast to Northern Ireland and Scotland. / There is evidence that disproportionate support for Leave among the 21 per cent of Welsh voters who were born in England tipped the vote for Leave in Wales.

The negotiations which will set our relationship with our closest neighbours for the next generation are being rushed in a reckless game of chicken.

Crashing out of the EU would not end uncertainty and would be a dark day for agriculture and food in Britain.

The EU withdrawal bill contains a power grab of critical devolved areas such as fishing and farming – and even aspects of our independent justice system
