No-deal Brexit means food price rises, warns Morrisons

Storage issues could hit cost of fruit and veg as supermarket chain's profits plunge

Supermarket prices will go up unless the UK government negotiates a tariff-free Brexit deal with Europe, the boss of Morrisons, Britain's fourth-largest grocery chain, has warned.

From our point of view representing British consumers we would like the government and the leaders of the country to negotiate a deal that includes no tariffs UK to Europe or Europe to the UK because tariffs do drive inflation," said David Potts, the chief executive of the Bradford-based supermarket.
