I've no idea of the merits of this but @bgatesisapsycho might indicate that this poster isn't particularly impartial.

I saw that the farmers were being beaten by police as I have for a few days now and posted a link showing this.

It could be that the farmers attacked the police first a bit like what happened in the miners strike.

The people that post the videos do so for their own reasons. I don’t have access to the original video so I can’t post that.

I said that I would keep posting updates of the situation and I have.

Sorry for the late response CAM.

Police are using their water cannons to put out the fires set by farmers outside the EU building in Brussels 😮

🚨 EU CONTINUES WAR ON FARMERS | The European Parliament has dealt another blow to European rural areas and agriculture by passing the highly controversial ‘nature restoration law’ - despite the ongoing farmers’ protests.🇪🇺

The plan to “restore” at least 30% of European habitats in “poor condition” by 2030, 60% by 2040, and 90% by 2050” is just a pretext to get rid of European farmers once and for all, break our economies and take further control over our lives under the “green” pretext.

Considering the pressure European farmers are already under, this law might very well be the straw that breaks the camels back.

I don’t know what ‘poor condition’ is. But if it’s farming land turning back to nature then it sounds idealistic.

If it is that then where’s the food coming from if they don’t have the land to grow it?

In my garden, I have two chickens and a dog.
In France that would make me able to claim subsidies as a farmer.
Nice work if you can get it.

Be careful you don't get a visit from the chicken police. The covenants on a place we are looking at over there for our daughter specify no pigeons, pigs or poultry.

Daft as it sounds, I had a cage with quail It was great ,they drop eggs all over.
Neighbours reported me for keeping poultry.
