Future Free Trade Agreements

Proceeding contribution from Chi Onwurah (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 21 February 2019. It occurred during Debate on Future Free Trade Agreements.

I really appreciate the hon. Gentleman’s anecdotes about sheep farming. He talks about improvements in efficiency, but does he recognise that our landscape—I am thinking particularly about the landscape of Northumberland and County Durham and the beautiful landscape of the north of England—is driven by the scale of farming that we have now. Its beauty would be much affected and, in my view, much diminished by the kind of efficiency that we see in New Zealand farms.
