Farmers on 11:01 - Dec 2 by onehunglow | I try to avoid ad hominem crap It's not always easy We are never wholly right or wrong We agree and disagree I do with myself all the time Nice |
Absolutely! There was a time when discussions could be held constructively, free from hostility or malice. Everyone’s perspective matters, and sharing our opinions—whether right or wrong—is an essential part of understanding and growth. The key is ensuring that no one is harmed in the process. As a young Bob Hoskins wisely put it, "It's good to talk." | | | |
Farmers on 11:15 - Dec 5 with 1119 views | felixstowe_jack | A see the Snowdon National park authority is trying to stop farmers from allowing them to open suitable fields for tourist to park their cars while visiting the area. Apparently it is against thier plans for the National Park. So traffic chaos will remain and farmers will be denied a much needed source of income. I guess the Senedd would rather collect parking fines themselves than solve the problem. | |

The government could always nationlise farmland and run the farms themselves. A bit like Stalin did in the USSR which led to a 50% decrease in food production leading to a famine and millions starving. An estimated 7 to 9 million people in the USSR died of starvation. If history tells us anything it is not to repeat the mistakes of the past . | |

I've always said that they are all the same, it's just down to the ones in power have more opportunities. I challenge anyone to dispute this. | | | |

You have no sympathy with any one who does not believe that communism is the solution to all the Worlds problems. Without farmers you would starve. | |

Farmers on 15:05 - Dec 8 with 598 views | controversial_jack | Without Electricians and power workers you would freeze, yet they have to pay double the ih taxes that farmers pay, but you don't hear them whinging. As a landlord my kids will have to pay twice the IH tax or even sell up to pay just like these farmers. but they don't get the allowances or subsidies these farmers do. No sympathy [Post edited 8 Dec 15:08]

Fortunately our electricians and power workers get very good wages and decent pensions unlike our farmers who often work 80 hours a week at less than minimum wage and no company pension. | |

Nonsense, farmers get huge subsidies from the taxpayer.They don't work 80 hours a week either. I have a mate who is a sheep farmer and he doesn't do anything like that. yes, he has busy periods of the year, but not right now. Farmers are important of course they are, but no more than many other utilities or workers , yet they whinge because they have to pay IH tax at a higher threshold and lower rate than the rest of the hard worked.As a landlord, my kids will have to pay more than these whingers and may have to sell up some property and evict the tenants - hopefully not.See how it works? No sympathy! | | | |

With the right planning your children won't have to pay inheritance tax until it hits £1M, ask your accountant and solicitor. Then again if your assets are over £1M they will pretty much have to pay like the farmers. | | | |

The average farmer works 65 hours a week according to government statistics. So it is likely some do work 89 hours especially live stock farmers who tend there animals 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year. | |

They include domestic tasks in that working time, which most of us do too. My mate doesn't do anything like that and he's a sheep farmer. He has another sideline too | | | |

He does have a big flock of sheep, but as he said, there's not much to do this time of year. He said if it wasn't for the big subsidies he get's it wouldn't be worthwhile. I think he said , he gets about £2 per kg for lambs. Have a look to see what it costs in supermarkets. These are the real villans not farmers or the govt or IH tax | | | |

You have a mate You've singled out one individual and yet its proven that many farms are run at a loss, with many farmers having to have second jobs to survive. you like too many believe that being farmer is the equivalent of printing money, I can assure its not, | |

It's not just the supermarkets. Their customers have to put their hands up too. | | | |
