@Ed_Miliband Business just won't employ. You can't make business pay more money for employment then make it so they can't reduce employment. What wrong with you. There will be no businesses left

@jdpoc @TrooperSnooks Buy foreign food, their animal welfare is lower, they aren't woke. Their horticultural standards are lower. But the main one, you are sending money out the country.

@paulpowlesland @TrooperSnooks @SamOsbo05700900 I think you should start with japanese knot weed or ragwort. I can't understand this hatred of farmers. We are trying to produce food and make a living out of it. We are busy enough without a second job, or parliament working against us

@Ed_Miliband What a joke, they've just increases energy bills 13%

@FryRsquared go to #cereals2026 it will be a totally different experience for you.

[Richard @farmerYoudan]

@FarmersGuardian They are creating a communist country. Funny thing is British farmers produce British food on British land, pay British taxes. They are cutting off there own nose to spite British 'land owers'. They will not help British business, because that will help 'rich' business owners

Activist: "Your cows are putting carbon into the atmosphere."

Farmer: "Where did they get it?"

Activist: "What?"

Farmer: "The carbon. Where did the cow get it before it put it anywhere."

Activist: "From... eating?"

Farmer: "From eating grass. And where did the grass get it."

Activist: "The soil?"

Farmer: "The air. The grass pulled it out of the air last spring. The cow ate the grass. The cow breathed some of it back out. It went back into the air it came from."

Activist: "But it's still going into the atmosphere."

Farmer: "It's going back. There's a difference between a thing going somewhere and a thing going back. You've described a circle and you're frightened of it."

Activist: "Then just don't have the cow."

Farmer: "The grass still dies in autumn. It rots where it falls. The carbon goes back into the air either way, just without anyone getting fed in the middle."

Activist: "It's not that simple."

Farmer: "It's grass, cow, breath, grass. Or it's grass, rot, air, grass. Same circle, fewer dinners. If that's complicated for you I'd stay away from the water cycle. That one's got clouds in it."

@GMB A lot of parking fines are given out when a driver makes a mistake. Not all but a lot

[Richard @farmerYoudan]

@GMB £70 is a lot of money, who's said increasing the fine improved the situation the council, they will, they want more money. Are the parking rules run by a private company?

@bphillipsonMP Then maybe your politics are wrong, stop being so arrogant, control and reduce your politics. Give money to France to control migration is a waste, this should tell you what will happen when you rejoin the EU

@Ed_Miliband Like bio ethanol. Unlike solar it creates jobs and growth at home, not an imported product from china, not that i dislike china

Time for a solution ?

Switching UK petrol from E10 to E15 would use about 1.8 million tonnes of UK wheat, already sat in UK stores right now.

That’s around 660 million litres of ethanol, roughly equal to 2.7 million barrels of oil. Farmers could deliver this in months, not years, no strait of Hormuz to navigate.

Energy policy is overlooking a ready-made domestic solution.

And the best bit? This is a fully sustainable solution that would boost GDP and give a desperately needed immediate shot in the arm for British farmers 👍#EnergySecurity #Farming #Biofuels #UK #GDP #BritishFarming

@TWBFarms @reglimagrain But the money is going to the wrong people

[Richard @farmerYoudan]

@TWBFarms @agricontract @Tesco This has been about to happen for 15 years

[Richard @farmerYoudan]

@DaleVince Will the farmers who's land is flooded get damages?

[Richard @farmerYoudan]

@ultraunvaxx @0hour1 For free

[Richard @farmerYoudan]

@bphillipsonMP @educationgovuk This isn't every child, and you are pulling more families into poverty, with your tax tax tax. Labour don't incentivise anyone to work. Why can't they see

[Richard @farmerYoudan]

@Ed_Miliband Pump the north sea, wow

[Richard @farmerYoudan]

@will_baker2003 @TWBFarms @AndyClaydenPtns @FlowerdewBob The subsidies were so the government could set standards of home produced food, paying the farmer the difference the increased costs these standards brought.

Or that is the argument that could be made now, and justified port blockades
