“War on farmers!” [Commentary by Opposition Leader Christopher Luxon, Times, April 27]. The UK lost its main market and people now see it for what it was: lies. It is simply not true that Labour has declared war on farmers. Intensive (industrial) farming and on land unsuitable for dairying has resulted in excessive use of fertilisers and severe pollution of waterways – and of course global warming. Bah humbug, Christopher Luxon, if there is a war, it is a war on humanity by de facto climate deniers.
