The average farmer earns £21k - £50k. For that, he's up and out all weather's, at 4am and to bed at 9pm, 7 days a week, 364 days a year. If animals are ill, or being born, he will work around the clock. I know farmers, and its gruelling.
That they're sat on land, that happens to have increased in value, doesn't mean they're rich. They SHOULD be rich, with a market of over 70m people in the country that need food, but they're not.
The criticism of our farmers for owning property that they farm, is all coming from the same lazy cunts, that get paid by the tax payer, and want to reduce their hours to a 4 day week on the same pay, or upper middle class academics, whose jobs entail bleating about Brexit on Twitter all day for the Guardian, or sat in a warm TV studio.
They're so unbelievably out of touch with the working man, its unreal.
Farmers have some of the highest suicide rates in the UK.
We must protect them at all costs.
I'm pretty disgusted how silent the supermarkets have been on this subject.
