[QUOTE="DrDunc, post: 3125338, member: 615"] The subsidy system has to, and will change. Why pay a large area "farmer" tens, hundreds, and even a few cases, millions of pounds to produce feck all squared from that land? The public want cheap food. The short term solution would be to import cheaper food from dubious environmental and welfare standard production countries. WE, THE ACTIVE FARMERS, MUST LOBBY AND CAMPAIGN TO KEEP FOOD BRITISH. Without subsidies, the vast majority of upland and hill farms could not compete against produce subsidised in other countries, or countries where the environment is raped and the animal treatment is cruel. STOP ALL THE BICKERING, INFIGHTING AND NAME CALLING. GET TOGETHER, AND GET THE PUBLIC TO SUPPORT OUR INDUSTRY. CHEAP FOOD FROM ABROAD IS IMMIGRATION THROUGH THE BACK DOOR. [/QUOTE]
