In this episode of Farming Britain: The chancellor of the exchequer Rachel Reeves wants to close down farming – and she is not bothering to ask DEFRA to do it for her.

According to FarmingForum approval has been gained from The Metropolitan police to organise a lawful rally in London on the 19th as a separate event to the NFU mass lobby.
