Yes, some importing and exporting is out of control. Literally. A little while back I read an article that said that the UK now astonishingly imports and exports the same amount of Milk! That is; we produce all that we need but 50% or so is exported (at great cost), and so the shortfall of 50% is imported back to the UK.

The outcome of which is that everyone involved makes money (mostly the big players in the chain) everyone that is except the consumer who pays over the odds for Milk and the assosiated envormnmental damage. Crazy.

I will look for the report and post when I find it...
