"I lived in London for 25 to 30 years and when I was here, like a lot of people who live in cities and go on Twitter, I thought farmers drove around in Range Rovers, moaning, until February and then you all went skiing. And then about five years ago I started farming and I have come to understand just how unbelievably difficult it is and complicated and dangerous and cold, very cold. Even when we're harvesting it is cold."
"You get people saying, 'Well I didn't pay that. I can get a chicken from abroad'. Yeah, you can, but it is so full of chlorine it tastes like a swimming pool with a beak. And then you have the environmentalist endlessly shouting at you. 'Oh your cows, they're contributing to the composition of the gasses in the atmosphere and your fertilisers are ruining the trouty freshness of our streams and rivers' and I know sometimes you just think what is the point?"
