oh the explanation is Marmite Gate.
There was a capitalist stand off yesterday in the UK between Unilever the world’s 2nd biggest producer of consumer goods and Tesco the world’s 2nd biggest retailer in which Tesco stopped selling Marmite–an unpalatable sandwich spread only known in the UK.
Marmite was the first high profile casualty of Brexit triggered by the dive the Pound has taken in the las three months.
Luckily for us UK residents there was a Brexit Minister at the rescue.
While European Democracy is going to the dogs and the EU should focus all its diplomatic capacity to reigning in megalomaniac fascist dictators, like V Orbán, it is distracted by the idiotic posturing of the UK Torys, who think that their choice of sandwich spread is some kind of political statement.
Anyways, reassuringly the marmite dispute has been resolved and we can look forward to many similar highlights for the foreseeable future.
