Yes.
If nothing else we'd all get a break while you fiddle with your exposure.

Coincidently I am doing my online shop right now. I am not going to starve, but it is not exactly full availability.

Just a thought, and totally irrelevant to Brexit, but I would be more concerned if the shortage pictures were of healthy foodstuff rather than those fatty, salt/sugar filled snacks which are not doing anyone any good.
That said, I have noticed more gaps in the fresh food stalls at our local Sainsbury's but I have survived so far by having plenty of other fruit/veg to choose from, and by not being picky.

Lovely healthy diet there.

No problem with that, but there are some shortages that would be more concerning and serious than crisps, Quavers and prawn cocktail Skips

Less so than certain other shops around here. Some say it's because they use more rail freight, so rely on compliance of fewer other shippers on the train than a lorry on a ferry which can be delayed by non compliant lorries ahead of it in the customs queue, as well as requiring fewer UK HGV drivers.

It doesn’t matter how many polls are held saying that we want back in, we can’t go back in unless:
- We lose the £
- We pay almost twice as much (having lost the rebate)
- We convince 27 other countries to accept us
Not forgetting of course the £100’s of BN we have spent extricating ourselves. And the loss of the veto, meaning we will be accepting all current and future legislation we previously opted out of.
They won. Everybody lost. We won’t ever get over it.

That will be a huge hurdle given our track record of failing to respect treaties with the EU on which the ink is still wet.

Don’t think it would do him much good behind the red wall either. The only people I have heard bemoaning brexit are on here. All of my leave voting acquaintances (ie all of my acquaintances) are perfectly happy with it! Yes, I agree, unbelievable, but, there it is.

The opposite is true around here. All Remainers say their decision would be the same, but several Leavers, not a majority, have said that they would change their vote if they could.
The thing that everyone agrees is muddying the waters is whether the various problems are mostly due to the effects of Brexit or covid.
