00:00Would you eat chlorinated chicken, Mr. Murray?
00:04I don't know if I ever have or haven't, but in terms of what's imported into the UK...
00:08Well, I don't know if you have a holiday in the United States of America,
00:12so you probably have eaten chlorinated chicken. Can I put it to you that you have?
00:16You look in fine health, I'm delighted to say. I can see you down the video link.
00:19If I've been in America and had a chicken sandwich or something,
00:22I'm not sure I checked at the time.
00:24Would you be happy to see chlorinated chicken in the United Kingdom?
00:28No, because the UK food standards are clear that they are not up for negotiation in any deal
00:34with other countries, and so chlorinated chicken,
00:38hormone-treated beef, both illegal in the UK and will remain so.
