Less well done for recruiting yet another pro NFU, Pro RT, Pro farmers dobbing each other in as a paid 'opinion' writer. :mad::mad::mad::mad:

I struggle whether as a general principle sharing photos of print media is a good idea? I know many others don't have such qualms which is fair enough. But I can say the letter was written by a PDP Holland of North Yorks and its very good. The opinion writer i was referring to is NFU scotland regional chair and doesn't like untidy farms

These things are in the public domain. So long as the source is credited, I can’t see a problem
