WITNEY MP Robert Courts has recognised the contribution made by farming in West Oxfordshire by backing a campaign supporting British agriculture.

An event in Westminster by the National Farmers Union called on MPs to back British farming as the country prepares to enter a crucial period of Brexit negotiations.

Mr Courts said: “There are so many worthy reasons to support British farmers. They are responsible for securing our fantastic British food supply, looking after our world-renowned countryside and sustaining a dynamic rural economy. That is why I am proud to wear the NFU’s Back British Farming pin badge in Parliament.”
