Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to another episode of the Shelley Tasker Show on Radio Soapbox. Today, we had the pleasure of speaking with Peter Lawrence, an independent MP candidate for Truro and Falmouth, Cornwall. Peter, also known as Farmer Pete, is the founder of the Farmers Movement Cornwall and has a significant following. We discussed his manifesto, which focuses on critical issues such as the cost of living crisis, housing crisis, and immigration. Peter emphasised the need for a maximum approach to circular self-sufficient food security and raised concerns about the impact of solar panels on farmland. He also highlighted the importance of honest food labelling and stronger protections for farmers within farm business tenancies. Additionally, we touched upon the controversial topic of cloud seeding and geoengineering. Despite technical difficulties, Peter shared his passion for making a difference and his commitment to representing the voices of the politically dispossessed. We also had Jo Wood, a dedicated activist, join us to discuss the campaign and the importance of political change. Tune in to hear more about Peter's vision for a better future and the growing movement of independent candidates in Cornwall.
