Has the deal between usa and EU favoured british and Irish beef farmers? 

It's an eu deal so it must be absolutely fantastic for Britain. 

Honestly don't know Regal, never heard or read anything about it. The only thing I know about beef and the UK/USA is British beef was (and maybe still is) banned from being imported into the USA because of "The Mad Cow issue", As an aside, I still can't donate blood in the USA because I've lived in the UK for a substantial amount of time and eaten British beef.

If the ban on UK beef into the USA is still in force then it won't favor UK farmers!!!

However in support of my point above, it is widely reported that British people pay less for drugs than Americans do because the NHS represents 66 million people and has more clout in negotiations than each of the independent private Insurance companies each representing far less people in the USA even for drugs invented and manufactured in the USA.

How will a no-deal Brexit and the millions upon millions of pounds that this will cost impact on those people that are in desperate need right now?

That would surely depend on what they need..... lower tarrifs could lower food prices .... I did say could.

Talking about beef, after we had been cleared by the authorities and the eu, of the mad cow trouble our "partners" the French refused and their farmers across the channel would have none of it, and sprayed the carcases and burnt them as they were unloaded, the eu judges in luxembourg said france must comply with the eu decision, so bye the way confirming eu law takes precedence over national law, fined them, £100,000 a day, they wouldn't pay and only lifted the ban 1yr after so the eu then  withdrew the penalties.

   The eu lifted the ban mid 1999, the French finally lifted theirs in oct. 2002

Nobody elected Boris to run the country mate..... they elected him to lead the Tories, who are elected (at present) to run the country.

Who is telling MPs what they cannot do or not do, not Johnson but Cummings. Taking back control is not for the peoples benefit,  but rests with shadowy figures spouting every day in the newspapers.

Shadowy figures who represent the peoples views more so than the whiter than white MPs who purport too...

What can you do when your democratic rights have been trampled on?

Vote them back again?

Will they accept losing a vote this time?

Johnson wasn't it?

And Cummings of course was found to be in contempt of Parliament. 

If it wasn't so serious it'd be funny.
