Clive,

As said before I'm quite happy to discuss issues on here ocasionally but I can't be bothered with trying to correct wild conspiracy theories you dream up or your personal abuse.

Of course NFU staff count the votes. They are professional people. To suggest otherwise says more about you than it does them.
Hmm
'Professional people'
Are those people who are paid a salary by an organisation they have a vested interest in maintaining the status quo?

Bit like MPs, Lords, Trade Unions...

I went to last years Devon open meeting where the chairman of the sw TFA was asking questions of Liz Truss.He was given preference over NFU members.
 
Never been to a meeting yet where I or others have been told to ask a certain question,i do wonder wether some people have ever been to a meeting or just listen to pub talk .

It's the opposite way around, imo. When you raise an arm to ask a question, it's as if you were on another planet. Unseen by human eye.
Or at least the chairman's.:whistle:
