The Food Standards Agency says: "All products imported into Great Britain (GB) must comply with our food and feed safety requirements. These laws are put into place to protect public health." https://www.food.gov.uk/business-guidance/importing-high-risk-food-and-feed-of-non-animal-origin-hrfnao-into-great-britain

Background
I believe this is needed to protect British farmers from having to compete with cheap sub standard food imports. To protect livestock farming standards in the UK. As well as the general population from any possible health implications. These foods are grown for profit above anything else, not necessarily for the good of the end consumer.
