Well said @TrooperSnooks not enough mentioned of the environmental impact of this budget.
So much of the existing environmental areas are in danger of being ploughed up and turned to intensive monocroping just to cover a tax bill.
"Rachel Reeves is literally KILLING wildlife!" - I think Reeves, Starmer, and Ed Miliband in particular need to take a good listen to this man at the farmers' protest π

"I just donβt understand... if farming is such hard work with very little return, why farmers are so keen to continue farming?"
My response... which is also why I believe this #FamilyFarmTax will have an impact on the whole country.

I wonder what the nearest farm to the defra secretary's constituency in greater London is?
I held the first advice surgery in my new constituency office this week.
Located in the heart of Streatham and Croydon North, itβs a privilege to serve this wonderful community.
Please do email me at [email protected] if you need my help with anything.

With young people increasingly turning their back on University and embracing Modern Apprenticeships, are rural crafts like Hedging, Thatching and Dry Stone Walling being ignored by government, meaning our next generation of craftspeople lose out?

Do please watch Clarksonβs Farm 2 this weekend on Amazon. People seem to be loving it. And the soundtrack is amazing.

1. A thread on heritage crafts and the problems of outsourcing. This lovely chap is making spars. Short lengths of coppiced hazel are split and pointed at both ends. Every time a roof is thatched it requires many hundreds of spars.
Spotted loads of this walking round the farm yesterday with @SWTWildFarms
Looked at the train to go to @lammashow from Suffolk for 2 of us it was over Β£300 and required a night on colchester station on the way home. Wouldn't get to the show till 11am depart at 4pm and not get home till the next morning. Public transport doesn't work.
