> UK food inflation is still higher than just about all EU countries even without the checks

Have you considered that UK food inflation is higher precisely because they're not in the single market?

I don’t anyone here is arguing that leaving the single market was a great idea. Rather that it doesn’t make much sense to stay in it if you want to leave the EU.

That was my exact point; it's somewhat more expensive to import food into the UK now because of Brexit. And far more expensive to export (in relative terms to EU sourced food in the EU).
