I saw this when he was given the job. He is an inspiration, why the hell cant we have a british minister of agricultre who can speak like this. The nearest we got was Owen Patterson and he only lasted 5 minutes before the great and good forced him out. Shame on us in this country.

You actually do have one! I caught the Ni virus briefing a few weeks ago and was somewhat surprised to hear the instruction to stay at home and eat local beef! Was it Pots/Poots? Never heard the name before. There'd be uproar at such a suggestion from no 10.

Was only looking in for Robin Swann, who was in my era of yfcu.

This was sent to me, never seen it before, thought I would share.
Unreal too hear of things like this. well done to that Man for being so passionate about such a crucial thing in all our lives.
yet like he did say its just taken for granted as its just there in the Grocery Stores with most not a clue of the graft thats done to put it there & most of us providing it
getting no where near the Cost of doing so.
