Did You Know.....supermarkets..

[gulliver1]

Are experiencing Empty shelves again , of fresh fruit and veg also cold goods .
Some people are blaming covid, but supermarkets are blaming Brexit.
Long queues of Lorries have formed at Calais trying to get supplies into the UK ,
as New year import control of goods from the E/U begins to bite.
Super market workers are saying delivery lorries are just not arriving....(they should know)..

:0) Its common sense really, lack of goods, late goods ( fresh foods) profit loss. I went into Sainsburys on Friday, they had rows of empty freezers, very basic goods peas, frozen chips. Some may say well my Sainsburys was full, well all that depends on how far the goods have to travel to you local shop. All in all Sainsburys is one business and the profit margin affects every store and price, full or part empty.

Did you ask gulliver for links or pics to his claims from the OP ?
Get over yourself and stop protecting him
If you are a Mod then do some moderation
If not wrap up !

You're the one who posted the link to that image but I have no idea as to its relevance.

"It is common practice to offer a link to the news article you would like to discuss but it is not mandatory."

12.49 Most of those photographs were dated 2015 Stickybottle.
Way before Cameron had even thought of giving the Uk a referendum.

No idea what the reason is, but there were a few empty shelves when I was in Lidl this afternoon. Luckily everything I needed was in stock.

So it is not for you to decide who does and does not get to reply or supply links as you tried to with your earlier post

You ask ABers to post links to the contrary but do not ask it of the OP
As I said get over yourself

...and still the children play....

You appear to have an issue understanding a very simple statement.

I posted, "Folk are free to post links contradicting his claims if they want to."

Is there an instruction or request contained within that statement?

Have I claimed or even hinted that I, "decide who does and does not get to reply or supply links" within that statement?

The answer is "No" to both questions.

Maggiebee 17.38 probably Brexit related........ Supermarket staff have been instructed to bring the goods to the front of the shelves now and place packing cases behind them to cause an optical illusion.

[gulliver1]

There's always going to be more delays ,more costs.
.......It's never ever going to be as smooth as it was before Brexit.......

Supermarkets have allways done that here. Goods need to be accessable
