I am definitely voting for the UK Independence Party from now on. This is absolutely ridiculous when we have a world food shortage.

A Bristol fruit wholesaler has to throw away a consignment of kiwi fruit because they are too small! It's a disgusting waste.

Ha - I have e-mailed the EU and told them what I think. Fat lot of good it'll do but at least I feel better. I'll probably now be labelled as subversive and be taken away by men in black suits.
It's been nice knowing you all.
