Out of interest, have you been paid your BPS already??!!
yes but we have in the past been paid very late , So I can empathise, we didnt blame the NFU at that time

read what I wrote pls. One year we didn't get paid until March for no fault of our own . It wasn't fun but who knew who to blame and didn't shoot the messenger
Nothing yet here...
HOLD THE FRONT PAGE "Good News & Bad News"
Tomorrow I have a payment coming in the from those good old boys (and girls) at the RPA............... (that's the good bit)
Based on £72/acre it represents less than 35% of my claim? Obviously no explanation yet and with no further information I'm wondering if it's a part payment for HLS that is well overdue too. I do hoe for everyone else's sake it is BPS as that means their is a payment run, however I'm concerned it's so little.
I'll see if I can find out more before I change my vote, but gut feeling is that it must be a part BPS payment.
If its only 35% then it will be very unlikely to be the BPS payment!
We think the same...Bad PR, some very good headlines could be made in the media..
Liz Truss wants to climb the ladder in goverment, well she won't do that if all the bad PR ends up on her shoulders, plenty can be done, you just need leadership and thinking outside the box to do it!!
Oh and you won't get that from Minette Batters after what happened at the SW hustings tonight when she crumpled under pressure and had to leave the room...

Well, first step is to look for the weak spot, right?Difficult one to twist into bad PR for the RPA and good PR for the greedy farmers though.
We think the same...
But could you please tell us more about the fragrant Mrs Batters' performance?

The RPA's weak spot might, perhaps, be the bitter in-fighting and politicking - most people would accept news about poor systems, how much they cost, who is to blame.
It's a bit like a ball of wool (I used to advise divorcing clients like this) in that, once you start picking at a loose end, the whole thing can unravel surprisingly quickly.
A good place to start would be the NFU officers, who must have gleaned much more than they have hitherto said, out of politeness.
Second step is to realise that much of the public now regard farmers as les nouveaux pauvre.
after a couple years like that it wouldn't make much oddsI guess the alternative is EVERYONE gets paid on May 31st? Maybe that would be better!?!
