I am very pleased to stand with the NFU in support of Back British Farming Day. It is one of the most lamentable aspects of this Labour government that they have betrayed the votes of those farmers who trusted them to protect their interests as the cultivators of our country.
The present situation in the West Bank must be identified for what it is: a self-inflicted harm to the international standing and reputation of the state of Israel.
I have questioned the government on the absence of any real deterrent against illegal small boats crossings. This matter is a complete travesty which undermines the credible security of our own borders.The country has lost a billion pounds in failed agreements with the French to resolve this issue.
A great pleasure to attend the Tealby Garden Produce Fair. Some splendid exhibits despite the dry weather. Sadly not my work, I get no further than potatoes and a few apples in my Lincolnshire garden.
In times of such international instability, it is not only disheartening to see the current state of the stalled defence budget, but alarming due to the potential danger it puts us in.
With Cllr Bunney and Dominic from the County Council in Market Rasen, promoting Active Travel Lincolnshire to encourage walking and cycling. Come to our beautiful Wolds.
