Speaks for itself.

We have long said that an SPS agreement is the most meaningful way to reduce barriers, level the playing field and unlock opportunity.

This new context could finally get us there, and we look forward to working with Government to make it happen.

[British Poultry Council @britishpoultry]

You know how we feel about SPS - still the best letters in the English alphabet - but it’s not every day we get to add a few more of our favourites…

…like EU, GB, and NI finally being talked about in the same sentence as ‘progress!’

British poultry is a cornerstone of our food security. Fair, functional trade is crucial to the sustainability of domestic production.

We are calling for progress towards a deal that recognises UK standards, the uniqueness of UK-EU trade & supports our long term food security.

The focus on poultry farming as the primary culprit of river pollution is lazy and distracts from the multiple factors at play here.

We welcome scrutiny - but it must be honest, proportionate, and solution-oriented.

[British Poultry Council @britishpoultry]

The problem with this story is that it treats all farms as equal - but not all pollution is created equally👇

BPC members are unsubsidised and highly regulated, producing safe and affordable food for the nation.

Linking our sector to land-based payments on diversified farms distorts the facts and misleads public opinion.

If anything this story actually exposes a bigger issue: that other sectors need to step up and own their role in this conversation.
