Trade Bill

Proceeding contribution from Steve Brine (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 July 2020. It occurred during Debate on bills on Trade Bill.

I wonder whether the people in Scotland, like the people in England and in my constituency in Winchester, might not be way ahead of the politicians. Ultimately, will not the consumer decide? Just recently, we heard Waitrose make it clear that it would not be selling any imported product that was produced to a lower standard than we currently enjoy in this country, with its new boss citing chlorine-washed chicken. I just wonder whether the public might be ahead of us on this already.
