Professor Tim Lang said insufficient supplies after the UK leaves the European Union could see the Government forced to adopt a measure last used during the Second World War and the post-war era.
However, Lang said the UK was currently less prepared for rationing than it was in 1939 as planning had started three years earlier by Sir William Beveridge ahead of the build-up to the conflict.
The senior academic spoke out as he prepared to publish a damning study next week on the impact of Brexit on the supply, quality and price of food.
He said that 30% of Britain’s food supply comes directly from EU countries and a further 11% via deals done by the EU with other countries.
“Is rationing possible? Well, if we are cut off from 41% of our food that might be one of the things that has to be done,” he told The National.
Lang, a professor of food policy at City University, London, said prepar-ations were better ahead of rationing being introduced during the Second World War.

When global trade is shut down to satisfy the whims of wokeism crying about orange man and legacy news cheering on the deranged what do you expect? It's a load of fkn bollocks, and has nothing to do with brexit! It is a reoccurring theme with civilisations. But rationing? I think these pseudo journalist mean they can't get their caviar or foie gras this month, instead of directing the blame where it belongs...fifty - three hundred years of fiscal incompetence!
Your words haven't helped me in the last two weeks when trying to get petrol Art.
Panic buying bastards did the same with bogroll.
It would seem that any sensationalist piece of journalism suggesting that Cigarettes and Tobacco are going to be hard to come by, will have loads of non-smokers queuing for fags --whilst stocks last
