Post-Brexit phasing-out of EU subsidies blamed for drop in farmer confidence

“This year we’re going to be down to 50% or less of our previous BPS payments & this comes at a time where farmer borrowing is increasing & cost of servicing that debt is higher”

Shockingly poor journalist. Basically just an overpromoted social diarist.

I remember a time when the BBC employed political editors capable of intelligent analysis, contextualisation, and keeping their own biases in check.

We must stick to our plan because the plan is working.
The plan is to make people think we have a plan, but never explain the plan as otherwise people would see we don’t really have a plan & that actually the plan is just to be confidently mysterious, when really our plan is👇

Given the dreadful and biased election coverage by Laura Kuenssberg, will Laura be taking up David's advice?

For example was there a reason why BBC Politics interviewed 2 Tories who came 3rd and no one from the Lib Dems who beat them

Tonight on TV detectives Gammon and Grifter investigate the strange case of a company, masquerading as a political party who do terribly in elections but somehow get extensive media coverage.

Can't quite believe Sunak would hold an election in Dec/Jan. You'd be pilloried for needlessly ruining Christmas. You'd be conducting it in the depths of a winter NHS crisis. And you'd be asking a predominantly older volunteer force to campaign for you in the cold and the dark.

Even disregarding corruption of the referendum by foreign interference, it’s evident that Brexit was not an expression of democracy but a travesty of it.

This is an absolutely perfect explanation of how everything that’s going wrong for the Tories is ENTIRELY down to their own greed, dishonesty, stupidity and cowardice. And how we’ve ALL paid the price for it.

A short piece in the Times on the ongoing scandal that 1/3 of all HMRC late filing penalties are charged to people who don't earn enough to pay tax.

420,000 penalties over three years, on the poorest people in the UK. It's a scandal. thetimes.co.uk/article/should…
