Got the chance to have a huddle with the #PM on Tuesday ✍🏻

The @Conservatives were on the hunt for the support of #Devon #Farmers. Joined by #DavidCameron, the pair were showing support for North Devon Conservative candidate @SelaineSaxby.

@RishiSunak promised and committed to:

- A billion more pounds for the farm budget
- To continue the badger cull in the fight against Bovine TB.

Interesting stuff.

The PM highlighted the billion pound increase in the farm budget, and said that #Labour “doesn’t understand rural Britain”.

Selaine Saxby discussed various apprenticeship schemes, and spoke about how badly the #HousingCrisis is affecting young people.

“One of the huge issues for young people, whatever industry they’re in is #housing”

Planning permitted development could be the answer, according to Saxby.

A man from #BereAlston complained to the Devon County Council on two separate occasions to fill the 36 potholes on his road (he counted). The council showed up and only filled 11 of them!!!
