    Dutch Farmers Party

    “A farmers' party has stunned Dutch politics, and is set to be the biggest party in the upper house of parliament after provincial elections.” Many consider the Tory Party represents Rural votes. Balance that with our own EA and similar quango’s and finally the gross dereliction of duty shown...

    Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI)

    Listened to Mark Spencer MP speaking this morning. With his pedigree I could not believe he was not embarrassed with an offer of £1000 to deliver anything meaningful in the way of sustainability. Four hours work for a land agent. The Doctors at our local surgery would not get out of bed for that...

    Cost of living prices

    is it any coincidental that our exit from Europe and the reduction of BPS has led to higher food prices in the Supermarkets ? I won’t mention Greening, Tree planting because that’s for the fairies. So you could argue that BPS ( and its predecessor) were the Supermarkets friend and the Farmers...

    Parish

    Having just watched the latest Batters NFU round up reference no Government debate on the Australian Trade Deal but the Government had time to pass a bill protecting Beavers. Do you think Parish was becoming ‘unpopular’ due to his support of UK agriculture and (as he said himself) was thrown...

    Why do the Tories always self destruct?

    Why does the Tory party always self destruct once they have power? The Parish By Election was crassly handled. First, someone thought Parish’s face did not fit as he was too independently minded and pro Agriculture. Parish considered the Whips threw him overboard. If they had thought deeper and...

    Putin and History

    Is Putin trying to leave behind a legacy of returning the World to the Dark Ages. Food storages across the world, starving in Africa, hyper world inflation, depression across the the developed nations. He will never ever be seen as anything other than low life. You would have thought that...

    Arla short delivering

    I heard Ash excusing Arla for short delivering customers milk due to driver shortages. Prehaps owners should be running an ‘Audit’ to see whether the Company is fit for purpose sorry ‘compliant’.

    Power Cuts

    We have had three hours of power cuts from 03.00. Off then off then on then off. Computers rebooted then rebooted again. Mayhem. And with Gas heating being outlawed and electric cars it will only get worse. WPD need to make massive investment in their infrastructure to keep if working...

    EA let out to play!

    Times alert: Farmers will be stripped of subsidies if they pollute rivers under government plans to link payments to water quality. Figures obtained by The Times show that farms are causing a rising number of pollution incidents but rarely face significant consequences. The EA will make the RT...

    New Shutdown?

    Would it not have been obvious for all the Uk to have had a regional lockdown over the Summer. People could travel and work, attend school etc within that region. Goods could be exported and imported without hindrance. Airports within regions could be used ( if you must) so that infections...

    Milk your moments

    I have reservations about how AHDB is spending their (our) money on advertising milk. A £ I million is a drop in the ocean in terms of advertising. Bearing in mind the recent bad press about non payment of farmers milk supplying the service sector was inevitable under lockdown. Bad timing...
