‘The war committee’: Inside Britain’s furious farmers revolt

National Farmers' Union limited planned protests to just 1,800 in London on Nov 19 .

Jeremy Clarkson among those to lambast the decision, revealing he had booked a coach to take farmers from the Cotswolds to the demo but subsequently shelved plans.

Many farmers have large social media followers so it is relatively easy for them to mobilise.

He is organising a separate event to the NFU rally on Nov 19 , which he is encouraging farmers to attend.

He insists there is “no leader” of the protests, but he is helping to organise an event in Cardiff.

James Melville founded No Farmers, No Food to “save the farming industry” in January 2024 .

His campaign known for its distinctive logo of a black tractor on a yellow background has become highly visible.

Only president of the NFU since February this year , Tom Bradshaw has had a relentlessly busy time.

He has spoken of hearing from countless elderly farmers who now feel they are unable to pass on their farms to their children.

Earlier this week , he met with Government officials outlining the impact of the tax on family farms and food security.
