I have been invited, with a number of "young farmers" to meet and question our local MP; Simon Hoare, MP for North Dorset and Private Parliamentary Secretary to minister for Ag (George Eustice), on Friday.

The meeting is a chance to "air hopes and aspirations, as well as questions and concerns".

Whilst I have a few questions relevant to my business, I would like to open it up to the forum.

Please let me know if I can dig on any specific concerns for you.... bar any brexit issues!!

Thanks
Jimi

What are they doing about TB?

Are subs going to end in 2019?

What sort of trade deal does he envisage us getting post Brexit? Sorry but it's unavoidable.

Will we see a reduction in red tape and paperwork post Brexit?

Is there any chance of a scheme to help new entrants and maybe a sweetener to persuade old codgers to retire?
