Super proud of both my kids today. Unbeknown to me, our local Labour MP visited their different schools, while other kids asked about her job etc.... both of them had the confidence to ask her about her views iht. 1/2

She asked my 10 yr old are mummy and daddy still married - as that made it better for them!
The 13 yr old was just given the line about the amount of gov ag investment - basically ignored the question! Daughter was not happy, but didn't want to get in trouble by talking back.

Does your commercial lamb enterprise profit your business? Do you use terminal sire rams & are interested in flock data? If you tag lambs at birth, sell deadweight to an abattoir and interested in sharing data contact @RamCompare to discuss further @HybuCigCymru @AHDB_BeefLamb

Sheep farms in England help provide a massive 19,000 hectares of wildflowers for bees.
It's not just sheep that our shepherds are looking out for!
