'Red tape from being a member of the EU will be scrapped to help British farmers get on and grow fantastic food in the aftermath of Brexit'
Two leading UK politicians have promised that UK farmers will continue to receive farm subsidies until at least 2020.
The UK's Minister for Agriculture, Andrea Leadsom, made no commitment to subsidising direct payments to farmers after the UK leaves the EU in a recent opinion column in the Farmers Guardian.
Andrea Leadsom will replace Elizabeth Truss who has been in the post for two years and will now take over the Justice portfolio.
