French Farmers Launch Fresh Protests on Streets of Paris over EU’s Green Agenda


Lol, from the original post date above, it seems that French farmers have been at this for a while now.

The farmer protests in Europe – which are using precisely the same tactic of putting administrative urban centres under siege using heavy industrial vehicles – are proving an intractable challenge for Brussels5. The farmer protests started in the Netherlands, when the Dutch government tried to strongarm the country’s famously productive agricultural sector into giving up their land so a megacity for housing non-European migrants could be constructed; when the farmers showed no inclination to sell, the state discovered that nitrogen is the new carbon, announced that emissions were too high, and that upon these grounds the farmers would have to sell ‘for the climate’. The farmers fought back, so far successfully. Since then, the protests have spread to Germany, Spain, France, Portugal, Romania, Poland, Bulgaria, and Brussels itself. While the farmers of each country have specific national issues galvanizing them, they are united – and consciously so – by their opposition to EU policies intended to dramatically reduce agricultural productivity ‘for the climate’. As with the Canadian truckers, Regime media has of course characterized the farmers as far-right blood-and-soil ethnonationalists, however this has had no effect. Recently the EU has been crying uncle (or at least pretending to) on various issues – pesticide bans, policy goals aimed at reducing meat consumption, and so on – in a desperate attempt to make the pain stop (Narrator: the pain didn’t stop).

Russell Brand: “It’s a scam…The objective isn’t to get the farmers to behave in an organic, responsible, ecologically apposite manner. Far from it. It’s in order to bankrupt the farmers so that their land can be grabbed.”
