Worth a showing at the next Treasury away day?

@cashandcarrots My observation from the post was less about the EU but rather than bring farming margins up to 'conventional' levels it might be that all businesses are being driven down to the 1% roi we are expected to survive on.

Diversify and buy a farm to subsidise the tea rooms?

Polly Tearooms in Marlborough closes after 114 years. For the same reasons that all businesses are struggling: NI rise, minimum wage, taxes, regulations.
Our rulers can’t begin to imagine what it’s like to run a small enterprise within tight profit margins.

@thesundaysport I regularly find bugs in my chop suey roll. Am I being targeted for giant vegetable growing secrets?

@RichardBentall @EdwdPrice From where I am sat, the qualified economists have preyed on the gullible as well.

Dealing with our own storm damaged trees this morning. Just how much 'boing' can you build up in one stick! And it did exactly as it looked like it would - exploded! Scary stuff sorting out these windblown trees no matter what size they are.

[D'Tractor Mark @hubmaker]

That's exactly what we told ours. However...

Dems don’t fuck this up. You’re being handed these wins to fix shit. You fuck it up you’re all over.

@Jes_Squirrell Expect chaos between now and Jan 3rd.

@coileyparjley I would admit that Baroness Mone was not the best advert for bringing entrepreneurial spirit into government. Not knowing when to stop spotting opportunities and all that.

[D'Tractor Mark @hubmaker]

@coileyparjley Navigating a way though Whitehall will be a skill but so is rising through the ranks of big business. I would suggest the appropriate balance we need has been lost. It's all secondary to having any sort of moral compass which should be our starting point 🙂

Happy Hallowe'en and a big thank you to all our giant pumpkin customers, your business is very much appreciated.

@iandicko73 There are drawbacks but I'm guessing unforeskin circumstances may be at play. It's no skin off my nose whenever you do it.

@aSamEvans We are in a pickle. Reduced gherkin tariffs can only do so much.
