Given the UK is a big importer of food produce, you'd think we'd be doing more to help not hinder our agricultural sector. If the Russia-Ukraine war tells us anything, more food independence and security is a worthwhile aspiration at least for things we can be more self-sufficient with such as wheat, barley etc
Exactly! It’s mystifying 🤷♀️🤷♀️
A desperate situation for farmers to find themselves in, shouldn’t we be future proofing our own home grown produce?

So wrong headed and short sighted. Not surprised sadly.
I suspect it isn't a case of incompetence by now, I just don't think the governing party cares much.
