Checks on goods coming into the UK from the EU will no longer be introduced this year. Checks on our EXPORTS have been in place since January 2021, and IMPORT checks had been due to come in, in July - having been delayed three times already. This time though, the Brexit Opportunities Minister, Jacob Rees-Mogg, said the Government will now review how to implement the checks "in an improved way" and that "the new controls regime will come into force at the end of 2023" suggesting that goods entering the UK will face a very different inspection regime from those leaving the UK for the EU.

The majority of the UK's sunflower oil comes from the fields of Ukraine and disruption to exports because of the war has led to shortages - with some supermarkets limiting how much sunflower oil customers are allowed to buy. Meanwhile, Indonesia has banned the export of it's palm oil to keep domestic prices there low...leading to a global vegetable oil shortage. That in turn has lead to an increased demand for alternatives - like rapeseed oil - and the price of oil seed rape, the crop it comes from, has shot up…good news for the farmers who grow it.

And we meet a group of farmers trying to fight pollution from their land, and protect a chalk stream habitat.
