Wetherspoo­n to get shot of Jagermeist­er

- BY GRAHAM HISCOTT head of Business

BREXITEER Tim Martin JD Wetherspoo­n is to stop selling Jagermeist­er, replacing the German shot with an English equivalent called Strika on orders of the chain’s Brexiteer boss.

The boozers will also no longer stock French brandies Courvoisie­r VS and Hennessy Fine de Cognac from September 26.

It is part of a drive by pub chain boss Tim Martin to replace EU-made drinks.

He has already replaced champagne with UK and Australian sparkling wines.

Mr Martin said; “This significan­t move highlights our commitment to offering an excellent range of UK and world products.”

He claimed there would be no “cliff edge” involved in a no-deal Brexit, only “sunlit uplands” beyond EU quotas and tariffs.
