[QUOTE="delilah, post: 7813956, member: 76758"] You only need to read as far as the first paragraph to be able to put this into context. Three weeks ago Sir Dave Lewis was appointed as the Governments supply chain tzar. An appointment that was greeted gushingly by the President of the NFU. Lewis will have been busy, you don't get to be as successful as he has by being a slouch. It will have been explained to Useless that the only way to increase efficiency in the food chain is to speed up the process that has been in place for decades; rationalization and centralization. This will need paying for; increased motorway capacity, extra port capacity, compulsory purchase for distribution capacity, waste disposal capacity The way to pay for this will be to tax primary production, under the guise of saving the planet. It's all bollox. It will make the environmental impact of the food chain greater, not less. It will benefit no-one but the shareholders of global corporations. And it will all be your fault, as you vote for it daily through your acquiescence. edit. Having read it all I fail to see how Mr Eustice can be blamed. Everything he says and calls for is supported by UK ag. Methane belched by cows is destroying the planet: Official NFU policy. We need a tax on cows: As called for by the NBA. We need to produce less red meat: As advised to Government by the AHDB. [/QUOTE]
