      Whether a producer is prohibited from producing or selling has zero affect on the UK consumer. I agree that a ban on production would be good, but in the vast majority of cases these are overseas producers, so that can’t be legislated for.

          I very much doubt that there are any products being imported - because they can’t be sold - so no need to regulate that.

          The only thing I can see where a ban on production would help with is if the UK was home to a big manufacturer-exporter of straws etc. But that doesn’t seem very likely.

          Appreciate thr discussion and happy to have my position changed if I’m on the wrong track
