By Adrian Mason | 18 March 2021

By Charlotte Gill | 9 March 2021

Ryan Bourne: First, Covid-19 lockdowns. Next, climate change ones – rationed car use, no red meat. Coming soon to a country near you?

By Ryan Bourne | 9 December 2020 | 21 comments

Theresa Villiers: Ministers need to ensure Britain’s trade partners meet our agricultural standards

The UK market for food and groceries is a massive prize for any country to be allowed greater access to it. We should not sell ourselves short.

Richard Holden: The Japan trade deal, future CPTPP membership – deliverers of wages, prosperity and work to my Durham constituents.

Anthony Browne: Are we really going to pass a law that would harm many of the world’s poorest people?

I, for one, see this new Commission as further evidence that the Government will take expert advice that benefits farmers and consumers.
