Yes. Britain imports a lot of food. From the EU. Which will end up sitting in lorry parks in Dover for days, with the fresh produce rotting away while our understaffed customs officials fail to keep up with demand

It'll be bad.

Also the government was forced to admit it was stockpiling things like medicine in case the worst case scenario happens.

In the weekly shop we stocked up on a load of tinned goods & plan to add to it over the months.
I cant see a downside to this as we have the space & will eat it anyways, if food prices do go up we'll have a reserve.

Anyone think I'm overreacting & it's a stupid idea?

Poor people do this with bulk/discounted products out of necessity.

Honestly you should stockpile some food. It's not like its going to be starvation or anything but it could make life less stressful. And even if nothing bad happens you can still eat it since it's food, like someone said.

It's tempting to think 'don't be silly something like that won't really happen,' but it already has. The brexit was the thing that wasn't supposed to really happen. Canned food and rice and beans and pasta or something don't cost much and don't take up much space.

Prices will rise after the brexit for sure, so if there are things you can buy now instead of later its a good idea to do it.

Are the Brits protected as well, or does hard Brexit have a secret clause where EU citizens get to hunt them like foxes?

Since there won’t be adequate food, culling their number is more humane, really.

Much more likely it gets cut in the post brexit budget. Which as someone living there is a shame, because we could do with more trees.

I'm from Spain, and a few years back when leftist parties like Podemos were gaining support here my dad wanted to send his savings to the UK just in case they won the elections, made Spain leave the EU and tanked our economy.

He never did, but man that would've been deliciously ironic.
