Future of Farming

Proceeding contribution from Jim Shannon (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 4 December 2024. It occurred during Debate on Future of Farming.

My hon. Friend the Member for Upper Bann (Carla Lockhart) and I have both contacted the Ulster Farmers Union in Northern Ireland. We have spoken to John McLenaghan, the legal officer, who told us clearly that 65% of farmers in Northern Ireland will be impacted. With great respect, when I hear his legal opinion and the opinion that the Minister has just referred to, there is a chasm of difference. Somebody is telling porkies—I do not know who it is.
