Jamie’s gets stuck in

Finally listening to Jamie get into an MP about there double speak and nonsense(14/10/22). There pushing tax hikes while claiming to be on the side of farmers. Good on you and do it some more! ‘30% reduction in co2/kg red meat since 1990’ MP ‘don’t care we want $$$$!’

Recommend

A great show with top notch guests for knowledgeable parts of the Agriculture sector and across the world. Lots of banter between Jamie, Row and guests. A voice for the farming community and there frustration. Highly recommended, keep up the good stuff team!
