Well if we are going to move back to localised production, produce & trade protection we would need an honest discussion about what this would mean, and accept the costs.
I'm with you in spirit GM and in some ways wish I had been born in earlier times. But can't see how it can be done. I think the reality is farming - as it stands - is not sustainable long term full stop.

I am sure you can afford the extra odd few pence.

I am just describing the situation as I see it. There is no way to save a now outmoded way of life, it is about how we adapt and find new ways of doing things.
We need the British and Irish farmers to do the same. If the government can lock us down for a cold, farmer can block the roads with machinery, the police won't do nothing!
Macron, is not clueless. He knows what he is doing, screw up the farmers, so he can buy their land...take control over the food chain. It's on Agenda 2030.
I do not get why ministers have to meet at some ivory tower about farmers.
I hope farmers do (mostly) peaceful protests outside evey supermarket. Not forgetting Downing Street and Parliment. If people can post Anti-semetic messages on QE Tower and getting away with it. Then spreading farm slurry should be legal.
MPs will panic when then they can't produce for their posh lunch breaks.
