Swiss-EU relations taken a bit of a hit. "Brexit had complicated the talks as the Commission’s hard negotiating position toward the U.K. government on issues such as protecting the EU’s single market meant that Brussels did not want to be perceived as being more flexible with the Swiss. Von der Leyen had been hoping to take a big step toward completing Juncker’s task when she met Swiss President Guy Parmelin last month, but instead, the meeting failed to bridge differences on three key areas in which the Swiss demanded exemptions: state aid rules, EU citizens’ ability to access the Swiss welfare system and protection of higher Swiss wages. Right-leaning Swiss politicians argued that without concessions in these areas, the agreement would be at risk of being voted down in a referendum. The Commission has rejected such exemptions as “simply not acceptable,” arguing that Switzerland’s “privileged access” to the EU market means it must abide by similar rules as the bloc’s member countries: “That is fundamentally a matter of fairness and legal certainty.” An EU factsheet said the bloc had wanted to keep the door open to further negotiations and claimed that Brussels “formulated compromises which go a long way towards the Swiss concerns.” " www.politico.eu/article/eu-switzerland-relations-head-for-trouble-as-partnership-deal-unravels/amp/?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=upday

On the other forum they’re advocating doing away with farming in this country as it’s cheaper to get it from abroad and it’s tough tittie if our farmers can’t compete . I remember vividly brexiters arguing for this before the referendum and how they often said farmers deserved to get shafted . The plan is to give all the land for more housing .
Don’t worry though folks , the fact we’d be reliant for our food from foreign countries is all part of the master plan .🙄
