Another BBQ... glad we could assist @DSFireUpdates - hopefully this one is knocked down for good!

@J2diverGeorge Thank you, Squire! We were a late callout on this one. I gather it flared up again by lunchtime today. Hope all is well with you guys!

@Rotorhead500 Good work Mr H!

And we're off! Silly season in full flight up in the Peak District. Large wildfire on #SnakeSummit, approaching 1400 acres burnt. #wildfires #firefighting #helicopters

@sniffpetrol Bugger. I thought I was watching an average SUV arrival in a supermarket carpark! 🤣

This video is doing the rounds on Insta, billed as showing durability testing for the Discovery 3. [Insert predictable reliability joke here.] But I think some of it is actually testing to make sure the airbags don't go off when they shouldn't. Can any car engineers confirm?

@LateBrakeShow Thrust twooo, yeah? World Land Speed Record, yeah? It was unreal. #Believe (Was it a modified 2.2 'Lude?)

Who remembers Thrust 2? youtu.be/zs3azSaMfvE

@harrym_vids @YouTube I think you need to go Full JC and get one of those Fendts, Harry! 😁

New Farm video has just gone live.. Visiting a chicken farm to see how they use our waste wood to heat their... youtu.be/fmLHkBsVgTM?si… via @YouTube

Dear Flutes @Carpervert @sniffpetrol HELP PLEASE! Mile-muncher needed for long distance work stuff... narrowed down main contenders to 8yr old G11 7-Series and 8-10 yr old Jaaaaag XJ. Like both, need The Flute Force on this one!

Bringing @Carpervert & @sniffpetrol some vistas from the pistas.

@NoFarmsNoFoods If they want to tax genuine unearned wealth, surely they should start by raising taxes on politicians, and perhaps also include their "expense accounts" as taxable benefits?

Another example of an out of touch Labour politician who is completely ignorant of how hard working farmers are & the huge financial jeopardy facing farmers over the inheritance tax. Here’s Julia Buckley MP claiming that farmers have “unearned wealth.”

@toadmeister I don't think the Chancellor got to that module in her GCSEs.

I hope Rachel Reeves understands that raising taxes won't raise any more tax revenue. It will just mean more net contributors leaving the country. I know the BBC hasn't heard of the Laffer Curve, but surely the Chancellor of the Exchequer has?

@dshensmith Hello Mr/Mrs Brain Surgeon, may I ask if you qualified via the easy exams or the hard exams?

Not sure 'easier' exams is the right path to start heading down!

One for you, Jonny! @Carpervert @sniffpetrol

@sniffpetrol Weren't you on Coronation Street, many moons ago??? 😆

My kids were asking what I’d look like with a moustache so I took a razor to my beard and the answer is… corrupt 1980s police officer?

@JamesMelville That clown does realise he's public servant in a public office, doesn't he? He must surely have to provide at least one answer, truthfully, in his political career!

Ed Miliband has refused to publish details of a net zero cooperation deal signed with China. So much for being a “government of transparency”.

@NoFarmsNoFoods Far, far too sensible, practical and tested.

There's a common sense solution to the inheritance tax on family farms. The clawback solution: As proposed by many in the farming industry - and a solution which the Labour government continue to ignore. Inheritance Tax is only applied to qualifying assets (those currently eligible for both APR and BPR) if they are disposed of within a seven-year period after death, and so tax is paid only when the finance is available to do so. If the beneficiary keeps on farming, inheritance tax is not applicable. This addresses the problem of rich people buying land to avoid tax while incentivising farmers to stay on their land. It also removes the inheritance tax jeopardy from working family farmers - who under the current new IHT proposals by the Labour government - risk having to sell their land to foot the bill. Such clawback mechanisms are used in many other European countries.

@Jenny_1884 Because they hope it deflects attention from their perpetual lies & incompetence?

So Yvette Cooper is holding a National Enquiry into troubles that went on during the Miners Strike back in 1984. My question is “Why Now” 2nd Question Why were you all against a National Enquiry regarding grooming gangs which is still ongoing & yet happy for an enquiry to go ahead which happened in 1984? Is this a distraction tax-tic?

@dshensmith Let's be honest, I've yet to see Sir Farmer Harmer demonstrate he, or his cabinet, have a clue about anything, let alone running a business. Too many handouts have always kept them afloat, regardless of performance. Frankly, I'm surprised they dress themselves without help.

Surprise? No! I’ve been saying this since the budget because it’s NOT rocket science. If you make it more expensive for companies to hire people, they hire fewer people. 🤷‍♂️ Proof those in charge still have no clue about business.

@NoFarmsNoFoods Kind of rich, coming from a politician!

Shamefully ignorant statement.

@ClarksonsFarm1 Can you drink either whilst upside down?

Hammonds done a thing! Introducing Ratio Gin and Iron Ridge Whisky - two handcrafted new spirits created by Richard Hammond in collaboration with the award-winning team at Hawkridge Distillers. Who’s brave enough to try a glass?🥃

@JamesMelville Christ alive. Can you imagine him or any of his front bench on the front line??? 🫣

UK conscription? Piss off. Millions of people will not sign up to this nonsense.
