I want to know where the Green Party stands on halal slaughter.
A party of ‘animal-lovers’ happy to see hundreds of millions of animals bleed to death in unimaginable pain? Surely not?!
My position is clear.
Halal slaughter, and ALL non-stun slaughter, should be banned.
🚨🇫🇷 Meanwhile in France
Farmers refuse a confrontation & choose to sing and unite in front of Police & the Army instead.
When Politicians declare Farmers as their enemy and deploy the Military against the people who grow everyone food, then they’re probably not working in the interests of the people anymore.
So hang on, last Wednesday the Met Police didn’t allow British farmers to bring their tractors because it could “result in serious disruption”.
However, they have no issue with Palestine protesters disrupting central London. Including setting off fireworks.
Two-tier policing.
Reeves dumps the big pile of shite on the doorstep of every small business in Britain, then just forgets about it and moves on with her life. Salary safe, job safe. No concerns about paying the bills in the Reeves household, or indeed any of the civil servants who devised this skip fire of a budget.
They don’t care. They don’t understand, but more important they just don’t care.
Straight out of university, work for some anonymous Labour MP, maybe a think tank or a charity if we’re feeling adventurous. Then straight into life as a backbench MP or some random civil servant in the Treasury. How many have run a business? Created wealth? Generated jobs? Done anything?! SOD ALL.
It’s easy looking at the spreadsheets. Thinking oh a dividend rate rise here, or freezing that threshold - that’ll cover the numbers needed to hike up welfare. There are VERY real world consequences to all of these decisions.
Businesses are still reeling from the NI changes last year. And I mean reeling. Not enormous businesses had to find £300k? Possibly more to cover these rises?
What happens then, Rachel?
Costs get passed on. Contracts stall. Hiring cancelled. Investment paused. It grinds the economy to a halt. Businesses stop spending money. Redundancies. OBVIOUSLY.
How can they not understand this? Honestly? I cannot fathom the sheer vastness of their incompetence. All of this to fund those who choose not to work. Leaves a real sour taste in the mouth, doesn’t it?
Running a business is hard work, bloody hard work. It doesn’t just happen, and it doesn’t just work. It takes years of long days and sleepless nights. All that, with lots and lots of risk. There is no backup or a safety net. It works, or it doesn’t work. It’s brutal. I’m sorry to say that the vast majority of my MP colleagues simply do not understand that.
It is overwhelmingly depressing.
The ONLY way to get the economy firing is to reduce tax, reduce the size of the state and let businesses do what they do best - make money.
And actually, if you let them keep more of it? They’ll do more. Work more. Pay more tax.
THAT is how you grow the economy. That is the ONLY way.
One VERY important point today - there is no such thing as Government money.
It is my money. YOUR money. OUR money.
Stolen in increasing amounts, every year. With crumbs returned, and we're expected to be grateful?
The Government funds nothing, the taxpayer funds everything.
'I cannot believe that we cannot protest rightfully. You get all of these other radical people - we've never caused any problem.'
Farmers respond to the Met Police's last minute restrictions on their planned protest in London, on Budget day tomorrow.
Govt has blocked release of a joint intelligence committee report into the dire national security impacts expected from biodiversity loss. Was going to be announced at an event with the King this week

“Let’s ban new oil and gas licences in the North Sea but spaff away £40billion buying North Sea oil and gas from Norway. Let’s buy coking coal shipments worth £7.2million from Japan but ban UK coal mining. Let’s plaster thousands of acres of farmland with solar panels but spend £50million on sun dimming experiments. Let’s give Drax an estimated £1.8billlion in taxpayer funded subsidies on top of the £11billion it has already received despite Drax burning an amount of wood equivalent to 300 million trees. Let’s give £500million this year alone to wind power companies not to generate power from their wind turbines. And let’s spend £30billion of taxpayers’ money on carbon capture machines but put pensioners, farmers and the disabled into financial peril by claiming there’s a £22bn black hole.”
Would Govt. prefer us to sell the workshop, yard, offices, stock or staff room to pay the ludicrous BPR IHT if my mum dies?
45 years of unimaginable graft, risk, sacrifice (& paying taxes) - but then shafted simply because we run a good family business & provide good stable jobs.
@benpattinson1 We were discussing how much we would need to apply in front of the combine with say the sprayer to make any difference at all. With the heat, the evaporation rate would be so fast I’m not sure you could do it or get the water rate high enough. Crazy times but isn’t the first…..
Finally, a crop of OSR worth combining. Been a long wait since the last. Will hopefully make up for shortcomings on the winter barley 😬
Early start was worth it but now almost too dry already at 9.30am!
Do I miss driving the combine
Yes
&
No
If I was on it now l'd miss having tea in the garden with the children and @Char_Ruddy
They are growing up so quick I'm glad is enjoying driving it #claas#combine#harvest25#easyjet
@DavidButler34 Grain and straw yield horrific here. Shouldn’t have gambled the very late drilling conditions given what we’ve had since. Lesson learned.
