Answer from Hansard

The Prime Minister

Farming is top of the agenda, as far as I am concerned. That is why we put £5 billion to support farmers in the Budget— [ Interruption. ] The Conservatives failed to spend £300 million on farming on their watch. We have set out our road map, which has been welcomed by the National Farmers Union, as the hon. Lady very well knows. It was described as “long overdue”; I wonder who did not do it before?
