Morrisons begins rationing affecting all shoppers amid fears of shortages

Morrisons has become the first supermarket to start rationing certain items, amid shortages of fresh fruit and veg across the UK.

The leading supermarket is at the time of writing only allowing customers to buy two packs of peppers at a time, while other stores - including Waitrose - see stocks and supplies running low, with barren and empty shelves.

The lacklustre supply has been put down to a poor stint of weather across Spain earlier in the year - with shoppers previously warned that shortages of fresh fruit and veg could drag on until May.
