The Government seem rather lost at sea currently, especially when it comes to UK farming policy.

What one thing would you ask of the government in order to help UK farming?

Recognise farmings contribution to the economy biodiversity and care of the Uk countryside instead of being blamed by eco warriors in their city Ivor towers.


"blamed by eco warriors in their city Ecological deserts."

Most gardens & wasteland in towns and cities has all been built on - but they keep moaning about where they don't live and where the environment looked after.

Cities - literally pollution centres.

Lose the green levies and most industries would be better off.

I can sort of see that we want to lead from the front with this new industry but I think it’s crippling too many.

Boris should bring a halt to all the rewilding nonsense spouted by his wife and Goldsmith,also make sure imports will be equivalent in standards and Assurance as promised by Gove.
They all need to realise the importance of UK food production and never get in the mess as they have with imported energy.
