    Then they would be forced to operate in the commercial, capitalistic world they claim to champion and would be forced out of business as we import cheaper produce (sound familiar).
    Or they could take all that other great Tory advice and "modernise" to "reduce costs".
    Or like the bankers they could become the second best (after the politicians) protected public sector workers. Strange how some Tories hold such socialist beliefs when it's their livelihood threatened.
    Oops bollocks, drawn in, back to football, maybe the Tory party should have subsided us during our financial crisis <ok>

    We have the same problem here. I was born and brought up in Somerset and remember the local cockies (farmers) down the market on Saturday mornings moaning about the price of this and that, sitting disconsolately on the bonnets of their Jags and Land Rovers. None of them left the land, so where was the problem? I was talking to an Aussie cocky a while back and was, as usual, complaining. I said 'why don't you get off the land if you can't make ends meet?' He said 'Oh, what would I do? Its the only life I know.' I said, 'get a proper job. Retrain in one of the Government funded training schemes.' 'Oh, I can't do that, what would happen to my farm?' 'Sell it.' 'But its been in my family for generations.' 'And its still not making a profit? Theres your answer, mate.' Did it sink in? I doubt it. he just went off and applied for another Govt Loan or subsidy.

    If I wanted to come out I’d do it somewhere else than a footy chat site. But fair enough I think no less of you, you **** any farmer you fancy.

    The 10 Hottest Global Years on Record
    NOAA and NASA are out. As expected, 2018 was the fourth-hottest year on record globally, and another near-record year for U.S. weather and climate disasters. All of the years on record that were hotter or more disaster-filled came in the past decade.

    To bring context to the global goal of limiting warming to 2°C, we compare the global temperatures to an earlier, pre-industrial 1880-1910 baseline. 2018’s global temperatures were 1.90°F (1.06°C) above that baseline — more than halfway there. This made 2018 the second-warmest year on record without an El Niño event, behind only 2017. (El Niño can enhance warming, but it can’t explain all of it). Only 2016 and 2015 were warmer years, and 2014 rounds out the top five. With the five warmest years on record happening during the past five years — and the 20 warmest occurring over the past 22 — a consistent warming trend couldn’t be clearer. Meanwhile, monthly averaged atmospheric CO2 concentrations have risen to 411 ppm at Mauna Loa Observatory, thanks in part to an estimated 2.7 percent increase in global CO2 emissions from fossil fuels.

    While the U.S. had its 14th-warmest year in 2018, unusual heat in Europe and the Arctic propelled the globe to higher numbers. The oceans also had their warmest year on record — a trend that intensifies sea level rise, coral bleaching, and tropical cyclones such as hurricanes.

    Hurricanes hit the U.S. especially hard, leading 2018’s near-record list of 14 billion-dollar weather and climate disasters. Hurricanes Michael and Florence combined for at least $49 billion in damages — over half of the total from the year’s included events (cost estimates will be updated over time). In addition, the Western wildfire season was the most expensive ever, with total damages of at least $24 billion. Even the sheer number of billion-dollar events is telling — only 2011, 2016, and 2017 have had more. Unless we rapidly reduce our climate-warming emissions, these costly climate disasters will only get worse.
