Jeremy Hunt’s topsy-turvy budget: jam tomorrow but never jam today 

Good luck finding even a turnip now.

It seems from an article on here today that even turnips will be off the menu. The largest grower of turnips who is in Coffeys constituency has given up growing them. He supplied a huge percentage of UKs turnips.

The UKs largest tomato growers are also giving up growing tomatoes on an 18 hectare sight in Norfolk ,and one of largest growers of cucumbers is also ceasing growing them.

Many other crops will probably see a reduction of 25% in plantings this year.

All going well for those Brexit supporters who say we can just live off what we produce here and share it out.
