Dear

The nightmare of post-Brexit trade is turning into an unpleasant reality for British people. 

In particular, food shortages (along with rising rates of inflation) will see price increases passed on to consumers. This is alongside the cuts to Universal Credit as well, meaning the poorest in this country will be hit hardest.

Best for Britain, along with the UK Trade and Business Commission, has highlighted in a new report how post-Brexit trade challenges are causing hardships. 

The Government needs to improve its outdated systems, push for a smoother deal with the EU and restore compassion to its politics by keeping the £20 uplift to Universal credit. 

We cannot let one disaster simply lead to another.
