🚨 New Food & Drink Federation analysis: ⬇️ 🇬🇧 food exports in Q1 2025 down 20% compared to Q1 2020. 🫩 Main drag 👉BREXIT non-tariff barriers, red tape and weak demand in key EU markets. 👉 🇬🇧 still not replaced EU market access with equivalent global trade flows.

🔴 If 🇬🇧 were a house, Brexit tore up its foundations — especially for food. ⚪️ We replaced CAP with an Agriculture Act that barely mentions food, with focus shifted to environment. We have no food plan for production/supply. 🔵 As 🌍 turns inward, collapsing food production is national self-sabotage.

Post Brexit trade barriers ( deferred 7 times now I believe) slowly throttle our home production & make imports more expensive. Hardly what the uk economy needs to get growth eh ??

Getting ready for London on the 11th . The family business & farm tax needs a rethink . 10 yrs farming before death , 7-10 yrs after death are exempt. Saves family business but nails the tax dodgers !! Property relief was brought in to keep economy continuity !

Off to Dover tomorrow. Supporting family farms that will be destroyed by the budget as it stands ! Farms that have been for 10yr b4 death & 7yrs after death by families are exempt. Everyone else pays capital gains & duties. Hits the investors not the farmers !!

As America moves away from Europe it is ever more vital that we renew our ties with the EU and reduce the effects of the disastrous extreme Brexit we ended up with. Labour are letting our country down and making us even more vulnerable by not doing so immediately.

With farm inheritance tax ? If a farmer dies , his family is still farming that land for 7 years after his death . That farm is exempt from IHT . If it is sold within that period it is liable to capital Gains & IHT . This clobbers the investors & avoiders & lets families farm . Good idea ????
