Budget: Implications for Farming Communities - 4th November 2024
Here are the climate-related sections of speeches by MPs during the Commons debate Budget: Implications for Farming Communities.
15:34 Alistair Carmichael (Liberal Democrat)
There are already very low margins on every farm, including those in Mid Buckinghamshire. Will the addition of between £50 and £75 a tonne on the price of fertiliser, through the Government’s proposed carbon tax, increase food prices? Who will shoulder that burden? Will it be the farmer, or will it be the consumer?
