I remember the 1980s boycotts of South African produce (I don't think Outspan ever recovered from those, the brand disappeared some time in the 90s!).

Supermarkets are more devious these days, a bag of oranges will come from multiple different countries and I'm still not buying avocados as I can't be 100% sure the Israel ones simply didn't get relabelled in a warehouse just outside the M25..
I was shopping in the Lidl yesterday, wondering what, if anything we DO get from the US now?
It's all EU, even the American branded stuff comes from Germany, they're a Service economy now and we can do without their ugly services.
very little in the way of foodstuffs (that isn't from a "USA sweets" store), as most of it doesn't comply with our food safely laws.

Car products with USA brands (Meguiars/Prestone etc) are also made in EU for safety compliance/metric packaging reasons.

UK govt and NHS are still dependent on Microsoft for tech, but the servers are all in UK
weening us off American Tech is the biggest civilian problem I see, but it can be done and will be good for the European economy, maybe even ours if we snap out of our brexit shit.

'Trust' is going to be integral in Tech, the Americans have lost it, an opportunity is there.
