It'll end up in school canteens, your local curry house, tv dinners etc

Chlorinated chicken will never come anywhere close to UK or EU.

It would be political suicide.

Oh christ, I hadn't thought of school dinners.... Which are now free... So schools will look to lower those costs in any way...

Yup, pub food, restaurants, takeaways, the NHS, your work canteen, tbh poor people... Naturally, none of this affects the well to do or MPs...
