Farmers Unite

Friend to FU Big Dan Willis on Countryfile. Not something we normally encourage people to watch but this episode had some worthwhile content. Also an interview with Mr Burnham. Alongside FU’s Kezz as Chief Of Staff, Graham “The Colonel” Simpson & FU’s very own Rip aka Dan Spours, with Ollie “The Blogs” Harrison & of course Mr Clarkson, Big Dan was and remains a pivotal figure in the UK’s farming voice ensuring Mr Burnham and his office are not only hearing us, listening to us & we hope unlike his predecessors cabinet - talking to us.

Folks the NASA team were heavily involved in the FU campaign, please repay that work and sign this petition. It affects us all. Remember, check your email, even your spam or it won’t count.

Commit to continuous dualling of the A1 through the north of England to the Scottish Border. Implement immediate, interim safety upgrades —including junction visibility & hazard warnings—to prevent fatal collisions & stop dangerous traffic displacement through local rural villages.

Farmers were told to lie down as we had no chance, Farmers Unite showed just what’s possible. We stalled the A1 with the police’s help! Then we stalled Westminster. We know how to get things done, and this A1 nightmare is getting done. It will take everyone getting behind it, but we will get it done. Share the hell out of this and when called upon, COME!

NORTHUMBERLAND A1 SAFETY ALLIANCE (NASA)

It shouldn’t be rocket science.

Over the coming months, NASA will compile and publish the definitive 10-year safety record of the A1 through Northumberland.

We will document:

• Fatal collisions
• Serious injuries
• Collision locations
• Road conditions
• Safety concerns raised by communities
• Promises made by authorities
• Progress made – or not made

This is not a political campaign.

This is not a blame campaign.

This is an evidence project.

Too many people have lost their lives. Too many families have been affected. Too many questions remain unanswered.

If you have information, reports, photographs, local knowledge, historical records, media coverage or personal experience relevant to A1 safety, we would like to hear from you.

Our aim is simple:

To produce the most comprehensive public record ever assembled on safety along the A1 through Northumberland.

FU’s position on the proposed fuel protests is as follows. We share the frustration and have been significantly impacted by rising fuel prices. We are drafting emergency proposals for The Treasury and will actively lobby for support.

At this stage, we will not block infrastructure. The public is suffering alongside us, and any action we take should be in solidarity with them, not against them.

However, if the government fails to respond with timely and meaningful support, we will reconsider our approach and direct pressure toward government rather than the public. While we recognise the strain on public finances, meaningful action is essential.

If His Majesty’s Government does not act, collective public unity will be our strongest force. You think we can create some problems with a few tractors and wagons - imagine tractors, wagons, vans, cars, motorcycles and anything the people decide they might use. Now that’s power. We’re Still Here & We’re Stronger Together. 🫵🏻🫡

Thank you to all that took part in the Farmers Unite Sleep Out For Tommy. We put together a small unit made of largely - currently serving and formerly serving Special Forces, Royal Marines, cavalry, TA & many of those are also farmers. Our FU-HQ provided us with our rations in the shape of an absolutely delicious beef stew made from beef provided by our very own Rip who was also kind enough to host us on his moor. With Storm Dave imminent we made camp on lower ground by a burn, lit a carefully dug fire and got settled in. It was of huge importance for us to do this and raise some money for a cause we all feel very passionate about, particularly given our focus on food security this past 18 months. With out a military we can not defend our nation, without our farmers we can not feed our nation. We raised more than £2100 and to you all that pledged we say a big thank you.
