Use regularly to get products that supermarkets don't usually supply like amora mustard, tinned harissa tuna, a proper lettuce, Francine multigrain flour, french unsalted butter, Danone natural yoghurt, a proper flamquiche, Ducros whole black pepper & also their Herbs de Provence. Their quail are very good and come from a reputable supplier with high welfare standards, so they cost more. I usually select Parcelforce delivery, which has been reliable, but this time I chose DHL, maybe by mistake, & the delivery to Derbyshire came a day late, despite being dispatched on time. Couriers do sometimes fail to meet deadlines on budget next day ish services, so you might want to decide to choose the more expensive guaranteed options listed. It is always very well packed, and had kept cool, so nothing went off, but the packaging can't be described as eco, with piles of expanded polystyrene and perishable goods wrapped with cool bags in bubble wrap. Packing notes and invoicing are accurate, but sometimes certain fresh more niche items like chervil don't turn up, but I ask for them, just in case there is stock vs my chosen delivery date. Once I got a different tin of snails to what I ordered, which didn't have the recipe for the garlic butter on the back. I rang up & they were very helpful, & got back to me with the recipe that was on another much larger tin that they did have in stock. Apart from price increases due to loss of free trade with the EU, I find that UK prices are recently far higher than in France, since again partly due to brexit, energy costs have gone up more here than over there. Asset-fund owned Centrica has shut down UK gas facilities so we now only have 12 days of storage for UK gas vs Germany's 89, France's 103 & Netherlands 123. The gas price falls in the summer when demand is low. The EU store it at a cheap price to protect them against the price rising in the autumn/winter where now we cannot. We have not seen such massive fluctuations as are happening now in 25 years. While we were in the EU we could complain to the ECJ about unfair trading & Centrica could be fined, since all member countries are entitled to a fair price for energy, especially when it is supposed to be 'theirs'. Now we can't. Centrica could argue that lack of consistent UK policy vs gas production post brexit & loss of a more stable EU strategy hasn't helped. In the EU a cap is put on gas & electricity price and profits above that are redistributed to member states. Pre brexit, the UK’s National Balancing Point (NBP), the virtual trading point that sets the gas price, was Europe’s benchmark. That role is now played by the Dutch Title Transfer Facility (TTF). Thus, for the UK to attract gas from Europe for the winter, traders must offer a price that is higher than the TTF, and vice-versa if gas is to flow from the UK to Europe . We are strategically weak outside the EU. Labour may hope that UK government can keep all the profits generated by high UK gas prices, rather than redistribute them, but on the other hand, they'll have to stump up to build and fill a UK gas storage facility without access to a cheap central eu bank long term loan. In addition , post Brexit, we get no access to profits generated from high priced EU TTF gas imports. Uk producers like French government owned EDF are also using summer cheap gas prices to generate electricity which it is exporting to France. The profits from this are currently not being fairly redistributed to UK customers via energy price caps or uk government taxation. Post Brexit we have lost our ability to complain to the ECJ about unfair trading & laws being ignored by UK government & regulators. Only the EU can take action against UK government via the ECJ if we breach our trade agreement, but they'll only do this if it is in their interest. We only have the UK courts & the few poorly policed human rights treaties we have left to fall back on. The UK government has currently shelved its new Bill of rights that would make their actions supreme over the ECJ, ECHR & UK courts, but if they are re-elected, this will re-emerge in time for negotiating Brexit proper in 2026. Soon we might not be able to afford to buy from French Click I fear.
