Following another wave of concerned correspondence and phone calls from employers in both of these sectors, I have formally written again to the Home Secretary and Environment Secretary to highlight their views and ask on their behalf for greater support.
Food, Farming and the Environment
Having grown up on my stepdad’s farm and previously worked as Parliamentary Officer for the NFU, I have always had a strong connection with our agricultural industries and the environment. Farming and all of its associated sectors play a key role in not only our Norfolk (and wider Eastern) economy, but also in the preservation and enhancement of our beautiful rural landscapes and way of life.
That’s why I have always strived to speak up for the sector, promote British standards and encourage a greener, cleaner, healthier society and model of life.
