Some bloke called Guy in the crop production comic, prateling on about all the paperwork and how it was promised to be a lot less after brexit :eek:ERM, bit hippocritical I thought.
He's prattling on in FW today too, discussing how good Red II and mass balances are for our access to the biofuel market. My retort is will the US maize growers be filling in identical forms and then paying for an inspection?!?! :banghead: After all they are the biggest suppliers to vivergo and ensus........

What actual relationship do the NFU have to NFU mutual? I personally think it's a bit harsh to protest in front of an insurance salesman, as it's not their fault that NFU have sold us down the river with Red Tractor.
I'd like to know this too before I pull my insurance from them, they must be linked but by how much. £12k less for them

So the gravy train continues to trundle along. Disgraced Blenky is now working for the NFU. What a surprise hey! Jumped from one gravy train to the next to continue shafting British farmers.
