Ben Fletcher: My Promise to Local Farmers
Our rural economy is under threat. Here is my contract with the farming community.
Back to News
Farming is not just an industry; it is the stewardship of our landscape. Yet, farmers in Cheshire feel ignored by Westminster and local councils alike.
My promise is simple: I will establish a 'Rural Proofing' standard for all new regulations. If a policy hurts farmers, it doesn't pass.
Key Takeaways
Community First
Local decisions made by local people.
Investment
Securing funding for infrastructure.
Furthermore, we will launch a 'Buy Cheshire' campaign to get local produce into local schools and hospitals, shortening supply chains and boosting farm incomes.
