Did he not setup a partnership rather than just land rental? He's alot going on with flower bulbs, tillage and expecting his annual article about his turkeys shortly.

I think the partnership fell apart...or he pulled out to rent the ground tax free to them.

The partnership was probably for tax purposes as well

Are the pubs not allowed open after tonight, even the ones that serve food??

There’s a question came up at work today.

Second cut bales of silage. How long after baking would they be ok to feed.

Opinions ranged from immediately to not before 8 weeks.

In all seriousness who would have thought the leader of the free world would behave like this. You have to pinch yourself at times is this 2020 or a dream.
If he is Re elected again I will loose all faith in humanity.

They'll be mature in about 3 weeks. You could feed anytime but they'd deteriorate quickly, once opened before then.

Joe Biden is barely lucid, and his VP pick Kamala Harris is literally bat sh**t crazy and 10 times more dangerous than having Trump in office, its widely accepted she will be running the show given Biden isn't fit to run office....
Trump is seen as the lesser of two evils by alot of Americans at the minute, look up kamala Harris record in office it's crazy

Economy is doing OK, most people have jobs and money in their pocket.
Good chance he'll get elected again.

It's a tough one.

I've seen one's online from the mid states who'd be from farming stock say they'll vote Biden.
Naturally there's Trump supporters too.

Polls have Biden up. But they had Hillary up too.

I'd have went for Trump a few weeks back.
But with all this and with the recent days stuff I think Biden will do it now.

Only ones with seating outside. No indoor eating or drinking. It's gone a bit cold for sitting outside

The American President is the leader of America, that’s it. Let’s stop with this Americanism of “leader of the free world”, that a load of rubbish. He doesn’t even have the respect of 10% of the free world never mind be it’s leader.

America is the only country able to keep Russia and China in check. I hope that never changes

I think he has a point about Harris. Mind you, it is like being asked if you'd rather cut off your right or left hand. Harris is, afaik, anti animal agriculture.

Local Government (Water Pollution) Act, 1977

12.—(1) Where it appears to a local authority that it is necessary to do so in order to prevent or control pollution of waters, it may serve a notice in writing under this section on any person having the custody or control of any polluting matter on premises in its functional area.

(2) A notice under this section shall—

(a) specify the measures which appear to the local authority serving the notice to be necessary in order to prevent such matter from entering waters,

(b) direct the person on whom the notice is served to take such measures as are specified in the notice, and

(c) specify a period within which such measures are to be taken.

(3) A person on whom a notice under this section is served may make representations to the local authority concerned regarding the terms of the notice within such period as may be specified in the notice and the authority, after consideration of any such representations, may amend the notice.

(4) Where a notice under this section is not complied with in the period specified in the notice, the person on whom it was served shall be guilty of an offence and shall be liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding £250, together with, in the case of a continuing offence, a further fine not exceeding £100 for every day on which the offence is continued.

(5) Where a person does not comply with a notice under this section within the period specified in the notice, the local authority which served the notice may take any steps it considers necessary to prevent polluting matter in relation to which the notice is served from entering waters, and may recover the cost of such steps from the person on whom the notice is served as a simple contract debt in a court of competent jurisdiction.

(6) A prosecution for an offence under this section may be taken by a local authority.

Look the women up and her past history, even her present, she pro antifa and supported/supports the protests/rioting and basically destruction of law and order in large swathes of American cities that has left them lawless by all accounts , to the point she advocated setting up up a go fund me page to get rioters and looters out on bail back out on to the streets....
America is heading to a place of anarchy and lawlessness not seen since the civil war, a vice president candidate thats advocating this getting into office will be a clusterf**k

Water John

Not going into a tick tack discussion on this thread on the US election, suffice to say Harris was actually a Prosecutor in her past life. She was both DA and AG in CA so implemented the law.
A Biden win will also put manners on Boris and hard Brexit notions.

Dumb farmer can't have an opinion on American politics? Or you have no response because deep down you know he's telling the truth. God knows why you feel so compelled to defend these people, especially after wasting most of the last four years hysterically pushing the Russian hoax.

You say she’s pro antifa like it’s a bad thing. Like being anti fascist is somehow an unreasonable position.

Lot of people from all white households have no idea what they are talking about. They’ll never understand fascism, racism or white privilege because they will never have to sit their kid down and explain why they are being abused because of their race or skin colour. My neighbor kid was beaten by three grown men last week because he was black, a 15yo kid kicked in the ground by three adult men in broad daylight in Ireland. These are the racists and fascists that live among us. Still we see people slagging off BLM or antifa.

Lot of Irish people have a lot of growing to do.

It is when that group are actively being the vigilante face of violent rioting and burnings in the US. And you most certainly dont have to sign up to "Antifa' to be against fascism or racism. And whilst very few condone people being abused because of their race or skin colour - we don't have to look to far in our own country for people being abused and killed because of nationality or religious belief. There is hate everywhere. Some of BLM own leaders have called for racism against people exactly because of their skin colour. I have no time for that **** - no matter who advocates it.

Lots of people everywhere have a lot af growing up to do tbf.
