A trade deal with the United States will lead to the sale of low quality food. An influx of cheap, poor quality meat, fruit and veg, leaves consumers vulnerable to food fraud. Professor Chris Elliott, founder of the Institute for Global Food Security at Queen's University Belfast, says that a trade deal after Brexit will mean accepting imports of food that is currently not sold in the UK because of current EU regulations. He warns that such foods will be vulnerable to mislabelling and food fraud. First broadcast on You & Yours, 3 March 2017.
