Lanarkshire MSP Meghan Gallacher was delighted to show her support for Back British Farming Day.

The annual celebration is taking place today (September 10) and Meghan says it provides a “perfect opportunity” to celebrate our farmers and thank them for the work they do all year round.

Meghan says that farmers in Central Scotland are facing huge challenges right now and are extremely concerned at the prospect of Labour’s "spiteful" family farm tax coming into force.
