Brexit

Again, this is a starting point of trade negotiations.  There seems to be an odd assumption that whatever another country wants, the UK must accept.  Whether it be chlorinated chickens (let us be honest, that's more about protectionism than food safety), giving the US a veto, or India demanding more immigration.  Where did this come from as it's also entangled your thoughts on negotiations with the EU as well.

You say that in any negotiation there will be give and take but where's the take?

It details the differences of food standards between the UK (as part of the EU) and the US.

Specifically, it goes on about the much higher amounts of food poisoning in the US (and no death from it in the UK, but 450 in the US in just a year), livestock standards (they are exempted from animal cruelty standards in most states, so farmers can basically do whatever they want with them, like having them spend their entire life in a little box, unable to even turn around or stand up straight), the fact that Salmonella survives the chlorinating process anyway and the fact that the Trump administration pressures the UK to accept chlorinated chicken (and hormone injected beef) despite 72% of the UK public being against it.
