Time for subsidies to go.

[fudge]

A clear message from the voters!

 

[Yale]

Yes........if all the red tape goes......however.....it won't.

And the government actively promotes British Ag produce

And insists public sector buys British

Hang on, some bacon just flew past my window.

The government will promote cheap food, because that's what voters want.

Voters have sold UK agriculture down the river, without even realising it.

I really do not want to like that , it is however now sadly true

 

[holwellcourtfarm]

Beware what you wish for! The devil is in the detail.

Always remember that agriculture had zero "pull" in British politics these days.

Folk knock the NFU but they've played an empty hand skillfully at Westminster for years.

Sorry to hear the news for you guys in the uk.

No one can moan about cheep food being imported you were told that was the main thing that brexit promised to us.

Maybe, but thats the problem, the fact that the UK government not addressed that problem over the last 40 years is nothing short of embarrassing.

 

[Yale]

Yes,it's really sad that we can now control our own destiny.

I feel it's the EU which is now on the skids.

 

[Chasingmytail]

2 years or so left and by then we'll use our own money so dont be doomed hopefully sort out the smaller farmers and stopping these huge landowner creaming off the best.

Really, I seem to remember the Remain camp threatening a vote for Brexit would mean food would become more expensive.

Fair play to the British people it's a brave decision ,better the devil you know and all that,if the Irish made a decision like this we would have to keep voting till we gave a yes vote,

Well if food prices rise surly that will be better for agriculture

 

[franklin]

Surrounded by Ireland, Scotland and France all in the EU and exporting to the same places, and with us wanting to still trade with the EU? Lets look at places like Switzerland, an essentially service economy or Norway which is similar too and you will find two countries where (last time I looked at the data) had subsidy income well in excess of what we get now.

 

[David.]

You don't suppose basic tractors with roll frames and levers will now be available in UK?
