Supplies of medicine should be deemed more important than shipments of food if there is a no-deal Brexit, the health secretary has told MPs.
Matt Hancock made clear his view when answering questions at the health and social care select committee. “The thing is that medicines will be prioritised in the event of a no-deal Brexit,” the health and social care secretary said when asked by the former Labour health minister Ben Bradshaw which would be given precedence.
Bradshaw responded: “Over food? Over vital food?”
Just pretend it's all been a horrible dream, or a glorious adventure of the imagination inside a snowglobe.
