Summary
Donald Trump warned the UK must accept chlorinated US chicken imports if it wants relief from new 10% tariffs on British exports.
The U.K. has long reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining high food standards, with polling showing 80% of Britons oppose a ch imports.
Critics argue chlorinated chicken stems from poorer production hygiene, with studies showing high bacteria rates in US chicken.
Farming advocates warn a US trade deal with lower standards would be “devastating for British farming.”
There’s obviously something fowl going on in the Whitehouse.
I remember, in 2025, when the former Whitehouse got renamed into the now Honourable Foulhouse.
