Did anyone else watch it ?

I thought the rebuke was rather over personal from the partisan speaker.

Yes.
I've never seen George Eustace in action before and I was quite impressed.
yes he seemed to know what he was talking about, from what he said they seem to know the position sheep farmers will be in if there is a WTO exit and they have measures in place to help, he mentioned headage payments of some sort but nothing of the mass culling that some opposition pm's were talking of
perhaps it won't be as bad as anticipated but he did say there would be an effect taking prices down to 2015 levels IIRC

It would probably be more like 1915 levels than 2015. We still might see soon. Hold onto your hat, it is still going to be a rough ride down to your destination.

well that's what he said and he gave the impression at least that he knew what he was on about

won't affect me personally to much as I only have one ewe and I normally eat the lamb she has, weather or not he will taste differently owing to not being worth as much remains to be seen
