💬"It’s been a really special three weeks with the whole team. This is a huge moment in my career. I don’t think it’s fully sunk in yet.” – @OscarOnley Get our #TDF2025 S21 report as memorable @LeTour ends in Paris🇫🇷👇 🇬🇧🔗teampicnicpostnl.com/tour-de-france… 🇳🇱🔗teampicnicpostnl.com/nl/tour-de-fra…
Confirmed ✅ Oscar Onley will finish fourth at the Tour de France. A record-equalling Tour for the Kelso Comet #OnleyFans
A fantastic couple of days at the @BorderUnion show in Kelso this weekend! We’ve had a busy time celebrating members and colleagues for their contributions to SLE over the years, meeting with politicians from across parties and speaking with hundreds of members of the public.
There's a common sense solution to the inheritance tax on family farms. The clawback solution: As proposed by many in the farming industry - and a solution which the Labour government continue to ignore. Inheritance Tax is only applied to qualifying assets (those currently…
Always great to chat about local rural issues with @Rachael2Win & @John2Win & @ScotLandEstates Board member Lucy Laidlaw
Good to catch up with @JimFairlieLogie & SNP Borders candidates for Holyrood election Calum Kerr & John Redpath on the @ScotLandEstates stand at @BorderUnion show
👀 We’re on the lookout for two new Trustees and a Trainee Trustee👀 Do you have time to give back and play a key role in our mission to “work steadfastly at the heart of Scottish agriculture to improve the lives of people in farming and crofting?” We’re looking for a Trainee…
Through the Alps and fourth place still at the bloody Tour de France! Oscar Onley - fifth place on La Plagne. Another superb performance from the Kelso Comet! #OnleyFans #TDF2025
💬"I think if someone told me before the start of the Tour de France that we would be in 4th place on GC with a few stages to go – then I wouldn’t believe them." - @OscarOnley Get our #TDF2025 S19 report after another superb mountain ride by the team 👇🏻…
He's on for the joint-best finish of a Scot at the Tour de France, and he's Onley 22 years old! Chapeau Oscar 🎩 #TDF2025 #OnleyFans
"Oscar Onley was just next level" @nedboulting and @millarmind talked about a huge performance for the Scot and Picnic PostNL on the queen stage on 'Today at the Tour' 🗣️ #TDF2025
At @BorderUnion biz breakfast, @scotgov Chief Vet Sheila Voas encourages us to think of farming systems & their contribution to nature on a landscape or river catchment scale - not single field or holding.
Leaving it all out there 🥵 You can be proud of that ride @OscarOnley 🙌🏻 #KeepChallenging #TDF2025
“There is a deep and growing divide between rural communities and Westminster, largely due to the architects of policy that seek to do things to the countryside, rather than for it.”⬇️ express.co.uk/news/politics/…
Phenomenal ride from @OscarOnley
What a battle on the Col de la Loze as @OscarOnley takes an incredible 4th place on the stage 👏🏻 Superb teamwork by the guys earlier too, as we maintain 4th on GC ahead of another day in the mountains tomorrow! #KeepChallenging #TDF2025
As @hmtreasury confirms its intent to press on with IHT reforms, family farms and businesses are being ignored. £millions of investment have been scrapped as a result, leaving rural communities worse off. It's time for @RachelReevesMP to reconsider👇 scottishlandandestates.co.uk/news/millions-…
@scottishgreens leadership candidate @Ross_Greer’s proposal to cut support for rural businesses betrays a lack of understanding of how this support works. We invite Mr Greer to visit a rural estate to see the positive impact his proposals would hinder👇 scottishlandandestates.co.uk/news/sle-respo…
💬"The guys did a fantastic job looking after Oscar, making sure he hit the climb well-hydrated and cool. Oscar put in a strong performance on the Ventoux, and I think we can be proud of both his effort and the team’s work overall.” - @Mattw1nston Get your #TDF2025 stage 16…
