I went on one last week what was that?
Edit,
Just seen there was another one, disappointed I missed that as last time I never got my questions answered.

That was the one that RT attended and Moseley spouted without coming up for air for more than 1/2 an hour.
The meeting today and next week is for members only with NO RT people present. I think they were set up due to the high level of feelings currently being voiced. I think that the strength of opinion on here may have had something to do with that.
Members cancelling a subscription was mentioned more than once by some of those engaging today ........ so the message from disaffected ordinary members is starting to hit home.

They want to ban tethering, we milk cows and handle them in a shippon, they’re cubicle housed and free to move around during the day. I wanted to be able to get my point a cross last time but never got called up. I think the teams set up is crap, over zoom you can get your point across better and pull them up when they don’t answer it

 

[LTH]

Was today any good?

That probably depends on your point of view

Mine is that I’m pee'd at the new rules, not against improving standards but this is stupid

Tbh I send most/all Nfu and ahdb emails to junk. Really cannot be bothered at 60 to go through all this. Makes me wonder why anyone wants to farm

I’m surprised by you say that about Ahdb as I think they have really pulled their collective finger out over the last few months.

Seeing as we pay them over £300 per milk cheque, I would hope that they have.

TBH I get constantly bombarded by emails from a raft of organisations and could spend a large chunk of the working day sifting through them. More & more I am concluding that farming is a young man's game and it is reaching the point where farms are going to have employ people to complete all their paperwork ... and to what end?
