❓ | We're in the political Q&A session at #NFU25. @NFULNR county chair @JoeWStanley asks:
"When every farm business owner, farm finance expert & farmer representative body is able to demonstrate how you have your sums wrong on APR & BPR, why do you think you know better?"

It’s nearly Big Farmland Bird Count time!
From 7-23 February take 30 minutes to record the bird species on 2ha of your farm, connect with nature & help @Gameandwildlife shout about the great work occurring on farms across the UK.

Thanks to @NFUtweets president @ProagriLtd for speaking at the @NFULNR AGM last night in front of 75 members, all keen to hear plans for the next stage of the national campaign to reverse the destructive #FamilyFarmTax, among other budget measures which undermine 🇬🇧 farming.

Delighted to have spent my last day with @LeicsRuralCrime, who received a Chief Constables Commendation for excellence.
This team, as a whole + individuals, have made such a difference to members + rural communities since NFU lobbying secured them- I couldn’t be prouder😊

LNR members had a lovely evening last night thanks to @warnersgin in Northants. Such an informative, lively tour + a clear example of passion giving purpose and becoming the profession 👏🏻
I dare not comment on the original footage as I have nothing polite to say.
However Joe is 7 steps ahead as usual ⬇️ if bulldozing into a small herbivore with a 🚔 is the only way authorities can deal with a bovine - what will they/ public do with 🐺, lynx, bears etc ?!
