The United Kingdom's minister for the environment, food and rural affairs has warned the country's food and drink industry about how it could be affected by a possible no-deal Brexit.
Michal Gove told the nation's producers to prepare for "considerable turbulence" if, as widely expected, Parliament votes against Prime Minister Theresa May's European Union exit plan next week.
Food manufacturers already know their sector will be hit hard by a no-deal Brexit, which would see Britain trade under World Trade Organization rules.
