“I thank the Chancellor’s human shield for that answer, but the fact that the Chancellor—who is sitting on the Front Bench—was not prepared to stand up and answer for herself demonstrates a distinct lack of respect for farmers, bordering on contempt. Will she not meet the farming unions, the banks, the professional orga…”

“6. If she will meet farming representatives to discuss the potential impact of changes to agricultural property relief and business property relief on farmers. [R]”

“I remind the House of my entry in the Register of Members’ Financial Interests. This delegation was organised by the Council for Arab-British Understanding, and it is my enormous privilege to serve as the chair of that organisation. CABU has organised dozens of delegations of this sort over the years, and with the supp…”

“Can the Secretary of State offer us any guarantee that the Government will not enter into a trade deal with America that will allow the importation and sale in this country of food produced to lower environmental and animal welfare standards than those that we demand from United Kingdom farmers?”

“At the end of the day, nobody will get everything that they want, but we have to make sure that everybody feels they have had a fair crack of the whip.”

“Yes, new HPMAs.”

“Minister Hardy, when do you envisage bringing forward proposals for HPMAs?”

“What do you anticipate will be the net effect on fishing opportunity once you make these designations?”

“£755 million, I stand corrected. Do you know the scope of that auction round in New York and what it realised? Ronan O’Hara: I have heard it in the past; I could not recall the exact figures right now.”
