Questioning Keir Starmer in PMQs on farm inheritance tax - and on the EFRA cross-party report calling for a pause.
The PM’s response will be a disappointment to farmers and to many on his own benches, who are convinced that the government should rethink the tax on family farms.

What on earth is the reasoning behind allowing police to enter your home without a warrant? Nothing has happened that comes near to that requirement. This unbridled power is wrong on so many levels. Is Jacinda getting advice from her communist friends? Is that who she calls on?

Can’t disagree with this advice. It is important to recognise that every country and every farm has a different footprint.

It is a sad to see a key coop go to foreign hands. We only have one open diary coop left... We need to ensure we have a strong Fonterra.

I personally think commercial farming is a generational occupation. Farming in Uganda and Africa has been more for home sustenance and of minimal economic value. That,s why we have thousands of micro farms with much less productivity @GlobalFarmerNet @Agricissexy @kaahwajean1

This is great news. Our biggest company & one of our biggest users of coal is fast-tracking its move away from this dirtiest of fossil fuels to clean renewable energy for its heat processing. I and @Megan_Woods welcome Fonterra's leadership on behalf of the Government.
