My head hurts now. Water/dehydration.
Also - clearly their journalists don't do the grocery shopping if they think eggs aren't sold by the dozen.
Well, it was the express and seemingly they used a LOT of artistic license...
Daft hysteria over the EU's ruling on water and dehydration
The EU has not said that water isn't healthy, and it's ruling on the vexatious claim that bottled water can prevent dehydration is perfectly sensible

1. Ridiculous rule on… Tea bags
While pushing for a Brexit, MP Johnson said in his Telegraph column that barmy EU rules mean that “you can’t recycle a tea bag”.
Under EU law, local authorities are allowed to ban the composting of teabags if there are fears over the spread of disease.
For example, Cardiff Council told household not to throw away tea bags in an attempt to prevent the spread of foot-and-mouth disease in 2005.

Okay, so it may breathe life back in to coastal communities through fishing, however I'm not sure that is outbalanced by lack of grants etc. Also coastal communities have been trumped also by the advancements of technology and pricing for international travel which would have happened regardless of EU so not sure that is completely helpful...

Just seen an article on that somewhere. What does worry me a little is that there are quotas in place to preserve some types of fish; are they going to be lifted?

Hopefully not, I think most fishermen are aware of the need to nurse stocks. TBH i don't know enough about it.
