Seeing land as just ‘investment’ or ‘asset for housing’ ignores ecology and is short-sighted about where UK AgriFood politics & security ought to head. UK is a rich if declining power, so snubbing neighbours (French subs) and squandering long-term food capacity is risky politics!
If you care about saving green space and farmland. If you want realistic housing numbers and truly affordable options then follow and support @CommunityPlann1 @RosieP4 who are campaigning with @CPRE for both. Stronger together! @ExplorerDale

As people become increasingly concerned about the quality of their food, more and more are turning to #organic produce – and the sales certainly prove it. Have you turned to #OrganicFood recently?

So, so important to so many amazing #NorthEast #localfood businesses like @AC0RNDAIRY. Please #SaveOurStandards
We recently joined others in the #NorthEast to make this film with @WWF and share our concerns that food standards are under threat from new trade deals. @PaulHowellMP and @Gibbo4Darlo – will you stand with us and #SaveOurStandards?
