Sales of British dairy products, chicken, and beef to the European Union in February suffered a massive slump compared with the same period 12 months earlier as British exports continue to struggle under the weight of uncertainty and added paperwork caused by Brexit, latest figures have revealed.
Government data showed that in February this year, the second month of business since the Brexit process was completed, sales of cream and milk to the EU fell by 96.4 percent compared with February 2020, and the figures were little better for chicken and beef, which each suffered slumps of more than 75 percent. Of the top 10 exported products, nine suffered falls, with only whisky showing an increase.
