The most quintessential British beverage is set to go up in price. How dare the meddling, bureaucratic money grabbers even suggest higher import pric... Oh, hang on, nope, we've only gone and made our own daily cuppa more expensive. We didn't need those pesky people-who-happen-to-live-across-another-invisible-line-of-territory to do it for us. A stroke of pure genius that one.

Cant the price be offset against exporting more Jam and scones?

To be fair, that's quite a big thread. I can see why the OP may have missed the tea discussion. 😀

Aptamil Baby formula has gone up from 10 quid a box to 11 quid in the last month

It was 10 quid a box 6 years ago when we had our first kid, 10 quid 4 years ago when we had our second kid

Now we have twins too!

our kids will survive we'll be fine, less money for fun stuff

**** you Brexit ¡¡!!

I bought more than 12kg of tea from Tesco so what's up?

My 45 grams tea consumption a day is probably equivalent to yours for one week tea consumption so what's your pain? What's that 2-3 grams of tea bag?

Are you being rip off again by artisan tea or something?

What's with all the remain tea moaners?

Why can't you just cut down the lard in your diet and money saved goes to tea consumption so what's the big deal?

But we no longer steal sugar from the colonials and have to pay for it.

Legislation is clearly required. Maybe The Tea Act.

But do they want to be healthy cutting down on stuffing their face with lard or do they simply going to complain about the irrelevant price increase in tea?

Stuff face with lard or drinking slightly expensive tea? Stuff face lard or drink tea?

Choose remain moaners, choose.

Sugar Beet?

We wont have space to grow sugar as it is a luxury and we need to grow oats for porridge and new houses for all the expats that will have to come back.

In a democracy people are entitled to moan, unless it's somehow become unpatriotic in this new era of Brexit?

(Checks outside the front door) nope, nobody telling me it's not okay to moan.

If things are going to go wrong under Brexit, which I hope they don't, it'd be most ungracious of Brexiters to somehow imply Remainers should just shut up.

No idea where it's from coz I bought mine from Tesco but I can also buy a big tub from meat seller for £1.50 per tub. If you are frying chips you need beef dripping ...
