Our take on today's #SpendingReview:

When care workers are priced out of 9 in 10 rural areas and millions live in ... transport deserts, rural communities aren't getting a fair share.

It's time to supercharge spending to level up against rural disadvantage.

What could the government's planning proposals mean for the countryside?

Check out this weekend's #Countryfile for a ... detailed look by @tomheapmedia at what the changes would mean for local communities, nature and our countryside.

We've joined @TheMontyDon & conservation charities to call for a ban on peat in compost by 2025.

Peat bogs are the ... UK's rainforest - they help fight #ClimateChange, control flooding & provide a home for wildlife.

Without a ban they could be lost forever. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/environment/2020/11/25/peat-compost-environmental-vandalism-monty-don-says/

Great piece on @BBCFarmingToday about the precipitous loss of county farms.

We need a new vision for county farms to ... stop the sell off of these vital local and national assets.

We can't let access to farming become a postcode lottery.
