The CAP is the most extravagantly generous agricultural system of subsidies anywhere in the world and it makes British agriculture sustainable. No matter what trade deals they strike or govt. subsidies given the drop in income will be fatal for many and impoverish many more.

Hi to be frank, I agree it's pretty generous, though not the worst (Japan, Norway, Switzerland). If there was a drop in subsidy, landowners would be hit hardest. The savings could be much better spent elsewhere, the impoverished being one great example.
