Johnson set to explain ‘advantages’ of Brexit to Ambridge
Prime Minister Johnson is set to explain the advantages of Brexit to the farming community of Borsetshire today when he visits Wales.
Borsetshire is of course in England but it is adjacent to areas of Wales which the Guardian (30th July) describes as having ten times more sheep than people.
It is understood that Johnson has given Ambridge a swerve to avoid Johnson Out protests by the Ambridge Socialist but it is likely that Brexiteers such as Brian Aldridge and Adam Macey will make the short journey to listen to what the Prime Minister has to say. Johnson did not canvass Ambridge during his recent Tory leadership campaign
According to the BBC Johnson will tell farmers: Once we leave the EU on 31 October, we will have a historic opportunity to introduce new schemes to support farming – and we will make sure that farmers get a better deal.”
It is unclear however how Johnson plans to replace the £300million of EU money received by Welsh farmers if a No Deal Brexit, his preferred option, occurs. A knock effect to adjacent Borsetshire would be certain.
