Important context here:

● over half of farms are less than 49 acres (20 hectares)

● "a big farm" is 217 acres.

Now let's see who's angry:

● Clarkson farm is 1,000 acres
● Lloyd Webber farms 4,000 acres
● Viscount Rothermere (Mail owner) 4,700 acres
● Dyson owns 36,000 acres
A message from a REAL farmer who hasn’t been brainwashed by the Tories, wealthy landowners and the right wing media👇🏽

As well as having an interest in politics and current affairs I also help to run Saltburn Folk Club - mainly by keeping it on the straight and narrow by managing the finances. I also occasionally help out on an unpaid basis in my daughter’s bookshop (although I do get some free books.)
