HEAR what happened when Yorkshire Post readers grilled the Conservative leader on his rural agenda. A special edition of the programme we produce especially for Yorkshire's country communities.
Mr Cameron was the guest at the first in a series of Yorkshire Post "On The Spot" live debates in the run-up to the election.

In this programme, Digital Editor David Behrens and the Yorkshire Post's agricultural correspondent Mark Casci ask how Mr Cameron's proposals on single farm payments and rural housing are likely to go down.

You can see Mr Cameron answer questions on other subjects, including crime, education and retirement, in an extended video programme this weekend »

Also this week, news of a £750,000 expansion programme at Yorkshire's famous Wensleydale Creamery.

Hello Vera,

Why are there so many public sector workers?

They just invent problems to keep themselves in a cushy job.

Claudius,

I suspect the reason for perpetuating organisations like Defra is rather more sinister than simply the provision of well-paid, "cushy jobs" for the boys, (though that certainly happens): from my experience, they are set up to block unwelkcome inquires wherever possible - or, if that can't be achieved, to manage whatever investigations do take place in such a way that they prevent the inquiry from reaching any conclusions that would cause difficulties for the Establishment.

Mr. B,

Who is driving the increasing prices of agricultural land? I guess that an analysis of exactly where the highest prices were paid, in relation to the proximity of villages or other 'expandable' settlements would show the answer. However if the very best quality arable land were going for the best prices, it might perhaps show that our net shortage of home-grown food was being recognised at last. In this economic climate, I doubt if equestrian establishments were in expansion, but I recently saw an article entitled: "put your money where it will grow - into either gold or land!" [My pension is too small for either, I'm afraid!!!]
