“ICE will have twice as many agents as the FBI and will have its own huge and growing prison system (which it operates independently) as its masked and un-uniformed officers continue to snatch people off of the streets and mete out violence as they see fit.”

The American Police State Is Here
ICE is about to eclipse the FBI as America's most important law enforcement agency. That's bad. Super-duper bad.

This is not what the "Not for EU" label means. The "Not for EU" label is a requirement of the Windsor Framework to ensure products placed on the market in GB can also be placed on the market in Northern Ireland.
🚨 “Not For EU” Label. Check your asparagus.
🇲🇽 Mexican asparagus in @sainsburys may be grown with pesticides banned in the EU, including carbofuran and paraquat.
🥵 No EU label = No EU safety standards.
🇬🇧 Post-Brexit, UK rules are weaker.
🧪 Lower testing. Less traceability. More risk.
