The WI conference has, it seems, been prepared to stand up against Soil Association/Helen Browning railroading them into condemning large animal units.

Hi Alan,
Having difficulty with the Farmers Weekly thread. Searched and couldn't find.

Hi Alan,
Thanks for the new link.
Seems that the WI, that is absolutely full of farmers wives, would not be bamboozled by fundamentalism claptrap floated about by the Soil Association. A lead balloon situation for the Soil Association. Hooray because for once common sense has prevailed!
