They FLY lettuce into the UK?

That has GOT to be expensive.

I’ve read that UK only flies in about 5% of its food- but depends on air freight for up to 40% of the value of all its exports and imports (electronics and the like)

Give how 9-11 grounded airlines for 3 days and the economic damage it caused, imagine what this is doing to the economies of Europe
