Many people asking us about #bumblebees at the moment - why they’re seeing them on the ground - so here’s a quick thread to explain what they’re up to. Please #retweet as every #queen that survives means a new colony that gets to exist & produce new queen #bees for next year! 1/8

The Supreme Court has made a ruling that reinforces the great paradox of and fault line in British politics, that Scottish people consistently vote to be governed by a separatist party that lacks the power to initiate a vote on separation supremecourt.uk/cases/docs/uks…

The only contribution to this afternoon's debate on forerstry and net-zero that exposed the scale and pace of land-grabbing going on aided and abetted by public money and the carbon code.

Companies like BrewDog think they're philanthrophic punks. They're not. They're just a privileged new nobility, in a centuries-old carve up of land in Scotland.

It's massively disappointing that nearly 20 years after the first Land Reform Act of the Scottish Parliament, the worry is that the system is encouraging *further* concentration of ownership, rather than diversification.


Anne Hay Reposted

"The other challenge is to those who set policy on land ownership, notably at Holyrood: how much are they letting this shift in the market determine the future of Scottish land, ownership and farming?"


Anne Hay Reposted

"But today's report points to a sharp increase in off-market deals, which give those communities no chance of putting their case and their finance together. There are several reasons for doing deals without transparency, *in addition to subversion of that legal intent*....."

"For all the hopes of radical land reform when @ScotParl started......there remains little to discourage secretive corporate & foreign money from buying up large chunks of Scotland & doing, quite often, not much with it of any use to the wider community" bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotla…

Boris Johnson likens Ukrainians’ fight to British people voting for Brexit. I can still remember the enthusiasm of Putin and Trump after the referendum. Boris, your words offend Ukrainians, the British and common sense.

Sitting here on a Saturday night trying to write a critique of Green Lairds and I can't find a way in words of expressing this photograph better than with this meme.

The Dec 2019 election was won with a promise to "level up across Britain". But exactly two years on, the poorest 50% of families are on average £110/yr worse off in real terms, while the richest 5% are £3,300/yr richer. New @NEF #LivingIncome analysis - thread

A pretty good reading of my feelings when I spoke to @Steven_Swinford about this.

.⁦@PJTheEconomist⁩ does not often get angry. But you can feel the steam coming out of his ears in his quote to ⁦@Steven_Swinford⁩ about ⁦@RishiSunak⁩’s plan to cut the basic rate of income tax

This. Trade deals are currently designed to kill British farmers who will then be forced to sell out to mega agribusiness.


Anne Hay Reposted

I've been tweeting about this for months.You make small British farmers go out of business by flooding the market with cheap drug riddled poorly produced meat sourced abroad.Their land is bought up by Dyson and co.who will NEVER let it be sold again


Anne Hay Reposted

This is where their greatest hits of bad ideas come from... Crash payment systems Pay farmers to retire Liberalise trade Deregulate environment Lower prices Rewild Use land as a corporate tax dodge Rise of the green lairds It is Green Thatcherism


Anne Hay Reposted

We have a government that holds beliefs that are likely to make everything worse with regards to farming/food/environment
