@cattlefinishers Grown back well since we grazed it!

@aSamEvans @HefinR Encouraging more kids to go to private school, will have a bigger impact. Same spend, more per child, smaller classes. Shame common sense isn’t a thing!

@cattlefinishers Someone been to the new M&S in selby! Went past yesterday, it was full, the new Iceland next door empty! Turns out British public want high quality British food, not imported crap! Shame this shambles of a gov doesn’t think the same!

[George Fell @MeatLinc]

@JimHigham @DanNeidle @ProagriLtd Not true, when @DanNeidle first proposed this a few weeks ago it was well received by farmers as a good option.

[George Fell @MeatLinc]

@IanStockport @DanNeidle Risk at present is next gen get handed farm over earlier and have to keep it going for older gen, when perhaps they don’t want to farm.

@Georgethefarmer @Ruralpay @NaturalEngland @JanetHughes Land agent brother said SFI apps were taking a week, now taking 3-4months. Budget will be underspent and gov will take surplus back. Budget cuts through incompetence

[George Fell @MeatLinc]

@DanNeidle It’s amazing what could be achieved with the consultation! What’s more worry is they don’t consult, and the masses of others things they cock up as a result!

@AW_ARobinson @FarmersWeekly @DefraGovUK @LizWebsterSBF @SaveBritishFood @JoeWStanley @agricontract @Wyefarm @laithafarm @Nigelrefowens @1GarethWynJones The gov are confusing those that will pay IHT and those at risk of IHT, the only thing that moves you from ‘at risk’ to paying it is fate! For those that suffer the fate, the consequences are devastating! That’s what makes this policy so evil and cruel!

[George Fell @MeatLinc]

@RobertHodgkins1 @ShepherdWales Every business set up is different, costs vary massively as every farm’s financial circumstances are different. New IHT is ‘another’ cost to your business that is unexpected, it’s to simple to just label it as a ‘rent equivalent’

[George Fell @MeatLinc]

@RobertHodgkins1 @ShepherdWales Very little done recently, but I would say good land £150 ish, now no BPS. I pay £70 for grassland

[George Fell @MeatLinc]

@RobertHodgkins1 @ShepherdWales Land around us is £16k, that’s bare land. Neighbours yard just sold for 700k. Out 600 plus yard would be £10m. Parents own separate house. Works out at £266/acre. Paid out after corporation tax, so add another 60, is £320/acre.

@agricontract @TheSun @thetimes @TWBFarms @JeremyClarkson Well done! We need everyone on side and we need numbers! Most important trip to London ever!!!

[George Fell @MeatLinc]

@FarmersGuardian @NFUtweets Think there will be a few more than 1800 there!
