    Does anyone know? Can an elected government be removed/changed by any keans other than a General Election? It seems every trades person, small business and farmer I speak to says "Oh Starmer won't be around for long" but is this merely wishful thinking?

    My father is 90 years young. He decided to take up painting again during lockdown. These are the Christmas cards he made for us this year.

    We were hedgelaying on a family farm today, because that's my job. Tomorrow I'll be on a protest in London. I don't want to go to London to be honest, but unless we can persuade this government to change its mind, there won't be many family farms left. #SaveOurFarms

    You've done more for British farming in one series, than Countryfile has in 33 years of broadcasting. Your tractor is too big mind you.

    Hats off to the leading journalists in Britain who have helped bring a frightened and anxious nation together... albeit in a united revulsion of leading journalists, but well done anyway.
