After an early start, for some, a hardy group of committed Nottinghamshire farmers waited in the snow for the bus to head to London to meet their MPs. The 1st bus was delayed, stuck in snow, but Acorn Travel worked hard to find an alternative & the farmers departed 2 hours late.

Clear message from different generations of farmers representing a wide range of farms in the Fens. The #FamilyFarmTax will destroy family farms, and result in less food being produced in the UK.

The Conservatives stand with the farming community. - We will axe the #FamilyFarmTax - Protect and enhance biosecurity - Build with farmers a bright future for British farming #NFU25

Getting out and about - speaking and engaging with our farming community is definitely one of the best parts of the job. Huge thanks to the Collingham family for kindly hosting me this morning alongside Sir Mark Spencer and their farming neighbours for a visit on their family farm

Rural Labour MP’s need to urgently listen and engage with their farming constituents - and voice their concerns in Parliament. Ignoring our farmers is not an option. Every farming business is being negatively impacted financially, one way or another by this Labour Government’s
