12th Annual Beer Festival starts tonight and runs until Sunday.
Do go along to support this Fenland institution, featuring the products of many great regional brewers.
I joined them today as they hosted the SIBA East Independent Beer Competition and Awards.

❗️ Earlier this week I challenged Labour on reports they plan to cut the farming budget.
In Government
@Conservatives
increased SFI rates, launched the biggest ever grants package on productivity and expanded flooding support to respond to pressures faced by farmers.

Fenland’s Golden Age Fairs are a brilliant resource, showcasing services and support for local residents over 60.
It was a pleasure to join the Mayor of Wisbech, Sidney Imafidon, and over 20 organisations at Tydd St Giles Community Centre today.

Kate Rock’s work championing tenant farmers has been incredible.
The decision to drop her from the Defra board will, rightly, cause concern in the sector.
Her undoubted expertise means she still has much more to give in supporting Britain’s farmers.

🐑 Livestock farming is an important part of our agriculture sector.

🔴 At the election Labour refused to make any commitment on the farming budget.
🥀 Now reports suggest that they plan to actually slash it by £100m.
❌ This is a disastrous move that will damage both our food security and environment.

Around 20,000 pensioners in Fenland will lose their winter fuel allowance as a result of Labour’s cut.
Labour are making a choice.
Money for the inflation busting wage demands of their union paymasters.
Cuts for pensioners who will have their health and finances put at risk.

❗️Cutting the farming budget, whilst at the same time backing the expensive demands of their union paymasters, shows Labour simply aren’t on the side of our farmers and their claims to back food security are hollow.

The

Labour are now cutting the winter fuel payment.
Age UK says it could ‘jeopardise the health as well as the finances of millions of older people’.

❗️ Labour admitted that they have no idea how much high-grade farmland will be lost as a result of their massive expansion of solar.
Food security and energy security are both essential, so our best agricultural land should be used to produce food.

Food security is an essential part of national security.
I agree with NFU Deputy President
@DavidatWestons
that using our best agricultural land for solar is a mistake.
Instead we should put solar on rooftops wherever possible, and otherwise on less productive land.
"If we solve our energy problems & offshore our food production, we will have achieved nothing."
NFU DP David Exwood (

Something extremely odd going on with this growing scandal of appointing donors to top civil service jobs.
🤷♀️ Civil Service Commission now briefing they had no idea about 🌹donations.
🤐 And usually Cab Sec would respond to the below in hours yet it’s been weeks unanswered.
