Today we welcome George Lyon onto the R2Kast! 🎙️ A seventh-generation tenant farmer from the Isle of Bute, George shares his journey from milking cows to shaping Scottish agricultural policy. With roots in beef, sheep, and dairy farming, his early life was grounded in the rhythms of island agriculture. 🐄🌿
George reflects on his transition into politics and how representing his community became central to his mission. From leading through industry protests to restructuring key organisations during crisis, he speaks candidly about the challenges of balancing leadership, advocacy, and loyalty. 🚜📢
We explore his political rise—from becoming an MSP for Argyll and Bute to representing Scotland in the European Parliament. George gives a behind-the-scenes look at coalition politics, CAP reform, and the growing impact of divisive discourse in the digital age. 🏛️📲
Now president of the Royal Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland, George is helping steer the organisation through financial transformation while celebrating the culture and innovation of Scottish farming. A voice of reason and resilience, his story is rooted in service, tradition, and vision. 🧠🌍
Enjoy! 😊
Thank you to Howden Rural for the continued .
