Dutch farmers tractor protests have gridlocked the nation's major cities
Over the past few months tens of thousands of farmers in the Netherlands have regularly taken their farm vehicles onto the main routes and city streets to show their opposition to new government climate goals that will force thousands of farmers out of business. Despite all of these protests, the neo Nazxi Dutch government is now planning state mandated compulsory buyouts of 500-600 farms within thetwelve months as the undemocratic, EU appointed government races to earn kudos from flat faced, civilisation hating swedish troll Greta Thunberg by achieving a 'net zero' (Carbon Dioxide and GDP,) economy before 2030. In other words, the
state could be forcing farmers to sell their land to the state.
This blog has reported on the success and economic importance to the nation of Nertherland's highly efficient agricultural sector.
https://expose-news.com/2022/10/17/netherlands-land-grab-government-to-seize-600-farms/
“Our criminal government has announced
[on Wednesday, 5 October] that they’ll be speeding up the theft of our
farmers’ land. 500-600 farmers will be forced to sell their land to the
state in the next year. The farmers have announced new protests, so stay
tuned, tweeted Eva Vlaardingerbroek.
Government-appointed mediator Johan
Remkes’ most striking proposal was aimed at so-called “peak loaders.” On
Wednesday, he called for 500 to 600 companies that are close to Natura
2000 conservation areas and have relatively high nitrogen emissions,
especially livestock farms, to close within a year or move – as much as
possible through a voluntary buyout but if there is no other option,
under duress, NOS reported.
“There are no longer any good routes
available for the short-term approach,” Remkes said. “The least bad
route is a targeted closure of 500 to 600 peak polluters within a year.”
However, the European Commission states that “Natura 2000 is not a system of strict nature reserves from which all human activities would be excluded.”
“The expropriation of farmers must be
taken off the table,” Mark van den Oever of Farmers’ Defence Force said
after the government-appointed negotiator, Johan Remkes, published his
recommendations on Wednesday. “We will not allow enforced buyouts to
happen.”
A few days later, Vlaardingerbroek tweeted:
“The Dutch government is ramping up the expropriation of our farmers,
driving some of them to commit suicide. They’re a bunch of inhumane
greedy liars and thieves who created a fake crisis to rob people of
their rights and property.”
In an interview on GB News,
Vlaardingerbroek explained what she believes are the reasons for the
Dutch government’s land grab: “There is no space left in the
Netherlands. So, what will they need to do? They will need to seize some
of the land of these farmers in order to house new Dutch people, the
newcomers to our country. So, that is what this is really about. And
of course, there’s also the element of our elites not wanting us to have
independence or control over our food supply and they obviously also
don’t want us to eat meat. So, the farmers are standing in the way of
their plans and that’s why they’re being targeted right now.
Since imposing nitrogen standards, the
Dutch government has made it virtually impossible for farming to
continue. Over 17,000 farmers in the Netherlands are at risk of being
shut down, run out of business, having to sell their land or destroy
their livestock.
Ralph Schoellhammer,
an assistant professor of International Relations at Webster Vienna
Private University, has been following the developments of the Dutch
farmer story closely. On Saturday he spoke with Clayton Morris, host of
Redacted, about the latest developments and his perspective on why the Dutch government is following this destructive path.
“The bureaucracy grinds on. It is, in
one sense, almost remarkable that regardless of what the people say or
regardless of what the public sentiment is, they just move forward,”
Schoellhammer said.
“There is a combination of factors
that are making the Dutch government target certain farms, in
particular, Schoellhammer explained. “For some, it is about the
expansion of urban planning … There is this vision … to create [a]
cross-border state with the Netherlands with Belgium with parts of
Germany. [To] have this huge urban centre that would include up to
between 50 and 150 million people … but it combines itself with another
element … which is a kind of environmental fanatism. So, the Dutch
farmers, in a sense, are being squeezed from two sides.”
“It is very absurd that people who
have never had you know a shovel in their hand or never had a pitchfork
in their hand is telling those who [have been farmers] for generations
how they are supposed to treat the environment. The [farmers] know how
to do it and they know what the limits are.”
The story doesn’t end there because
fanatical and destructive government policies are crushing farmers from
Germany to New Zealand. Morris and Schoelhammer go on to discuss how
destroying food production in the West will ultimately cause poverty and
starvation in Asia and Africa because Western nations will have to buy
food on the world market to feed their populations, which will drive
food prices out of the reach of populations in the world’s poorest
nations.

Dutch Farmers Protest Against Lockdowns And Globalism
Since the rise to prominence of The World Economic Forum which now claims to have penetrated the governments of all major nation and global corporations with its cultural Marxist ideology, governments in the liberal democracies have been openly revealing their subservience to the billionaire psychopaths of Big Finance, Big Pharma the Gates and Rockefeller Foundations, BlackRock and the military-financial-industrial complex behind the ‘Great Reset’, ‘New
Normal’ or whichever other benign-sounding term is used to dress up the crisis and current restructuring of capitalism and the brutal impacts on the lives and incomes of ordinary people.
In late 2019 and early 2020 (due to collapsing financial markets immediately prior to COVID) and during the COVID era of lockdowns, mask mandates, forces closures of buinesses trillions of dollars were handed over, (via COVID-relief packages,) to elite interests while lockdowns and restrictions involving loss of income and jobs were imposed on ordinary people and small businesses. The winners were the global corporations like Amazon, Big Pharma and the tech giants. The losers were small enterprises, communities (Main Street is not just a place we go to buy stuff, it is a social hub too,) and the bulk of the population, deprived of their right to work and the entire panoply of civil rights their ancestors struggled for.
In August 2020, a report by the International Labour Organization stated that COVID policies had severely disrupted economies across the world with estimated losses of productivity equivalent to nearly 400 million full-time jobs in the second quarter of 2020.
The restrictions and closure of the global economy predictably hit the poor hardest – the 1.6 billion informal (low-income) economy workers, representing half the global workforce while the elites were unscathed.
In India, the effects of lockdown drove about 230 million people into poverty. A May 2021 report by
Azim Premji University highlights how – to survive lockdown – the
poorest 25% of households borrowed 3.8 times their median income, as
against 1.4 times for the top 25%.
“The Modi government handled the pandemic by protecting the
profits of big business and prioritising the fortunes of billionaires over
safeguarding the lives and livelihoods of workers.”
But this approach was not limited to India. Between April and July
2020, the total wealth held by billionaires around the world grew
by 25% to $10+ trillion.
Due to financial COVID ‘relief packages’, governments are now under
the thumb of global banking interests more than ever before and the post-COVID era is ushering in crushing austerity measures due
to the complex terms on which loans were made, especially in Africa and the Global South where the poorest nations are found.
This was the inevitable consequence of closing down the world economy as many of us inhabitants of Planet Reality warned, but our posts in internet forums are increasingly censored by big Tech because THE TRUTH is now calssed as misinformation and legal but harmful.
The disastrous consequences of lockdowns wereomething that was known beforehand and devised to benefit the hegemonic interests of the World Economic Forum and their undemocratic geopolitical goals.
****
What we are witnessing is an economic reset – which policies carried
out under the guise of preventing COVID helped set in motion. This
reset includes energy and food ‘transitions’ and is tied to a ‘green’
environmental, social and governance (ESG) agenda and emerging green
bond financial markets that will be highly profitable for banks and
investors. Moreover, current sanctions placed on Russia are helping to
disrupt food and energy markets thereby accelerating the planned
changes.
As part of the ‘food transition’, we hear much talk of ‘precision’
agriculture driven by AI and cloud technology. Farmerless farms and
driverless machines are to become the norm. This transition involves
commodity crops – patented, genetically engineered seeds doused with
chemicals – cultivated for ‘biomatter’, manipulated by biotech
companies and constituted in giant vats into something resembling food.
This is part of the brave new world being promoted by the
self-labelled ‘visionaries’ associated with the World Economic Forum –
an Orwellian future where capitalist ‘liberal democracy’ has run its course.
To sell this to people, ‘smart’ is key to the sales pitch – smart
cities, smart interconnectivity, smart agriculture and so on. A ‘smart’
digital world encompassing almost everything, not least ‘precision’
surveillance of the population – its behaviour, its dissent or
conformity, its digital money and its purchasing.
Integral to this is the financialisation of nature and
an ESG agenda linked to the ‘green profiling’ of nations, companies and
individuals and their carbon footprint. A green imperialism (no doubt
forced through on the back of debt-related conditionalities) to ensure
countries (and people) comply with sustainability/net-zero goals that
are used to facilitate highly profitable technologies and fresh business
models.
For instance, how could countries demonstrate their ESG ‘green’
credentials while maintaining their international credit ratings?
Perhaps by allowing herbicide-resistant GMO commodity crop monocultures
that the strategically influential GM industry and its lobbyists
misleadingly portray as ‘climate friendly’.
Or maybe by displacing indigenous peoples and using their lands and
forests under the guise of ‘carbon sinks’ for global corporations to
‘offset’ their pollution and claim ‘net-zero’ status.
With this in mind, let us turn to the current farmer protest in the
Netherlands, where there is a plan to remove farmers from the land,
using concerns over the environment as justification.
On one hand, there is the official government narrative that this
‘transition’ is needed to reduce animal-based agriculture and the meat
industry’s dangerous emissions. This is where the ‘food transition’
comes in: ‘precision’ agriculture, fewer farmers and fake-meat made in a
lab – sold as climate-friendly which is anything but, given that it
will rely on intensive commodity cropping and long-line supply chains
for biomatter.
On the other hand, however, the Dutch government’s official narrative
of reducing nitrogen and ammonia emissions by transforming farming can
easily be used as cover for a standard ‘land grab’ to line the pockets
of property developers and investors as part of the vision for a mega
‘tristate’ city – mentioned in the 2017 article Dutch investors launch new marketing programme for NL: Tristate City.
Dutch campaigner Willem Engel is reported on the Rio Times website
as saying that, under the guise of climate protection, the way to get
there seems to be through forced expropriation. He claims that the Dutch
government is not seeking to eliminate about a third of its farms for
environmental reasons. Instead, it is about the construction of Tristate
City, a megalopolis with a population of around 45 million extending to
areas of Germany and Belgium.
Engel says that the so-called ‘nitrogen crisis’ is fictional, a
purely political issue to reshape the country’s landscape. He argues
that the largest nitrogen emissions are not caused by agriculture but by
industry.
This is not to imply that the Netherlands is to become a country
totally buried under concrete. But much farmland is strategically
important to industry and housing. The tristate concept is based on a
giant unified ‘green’ urban region ‘smart’ enough to compete with the
massive metropolises we see in Asia, not least in China.
Of course, the food transition and the tristate concept are not
mutually exclusive and can both be regarded as integral to the overall
‘sustainability’ agenda. Either way, the type of corporate
environmentalism, economic reset and corporate-led ‘food transition’
currently being promoted globally has little to do with protecting the
environment. It is a financially lucrative agenda that has co-opted the
terms and concerns of genuine environmentalists.
That much has been made clear by investigative journalist Corey Morningstar who
has described the nature of and links between
the corporate-billionaire interests driving this process in her
revealing multi-part article ‘The Manufacture of Greta Thunberg’.
In finishing, let’s turn to the official tristate city website where it states:
“Dit model heeft geen enkele relatie met het stikstofbeleid van de Nederlandse overheid!”
Translation:
“This model has no relation to the nitrogen policy of the Dutch government!”
And lab-made pigs might one day fly.
‘Netherlands Cannot Do Without Farmers’ Dutch King Declares in Meeting with Farmers

King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima of the
Netherlands visited with disgruntled farmers on Thursday to hear their
pleas for help as the globalist government of Prime Minister Mark Rutte
attempts to institute EU-driven green agenda goals that could see up to a
third of livestock farms in the country shut down.
The royal couple of the Netherlands toured the Deurne region on
Thursday, where they met with representatives of the De Peel national
park, which is one of the EU designated areas that the government of
Mark Rutte wishes to impose nitrogen emission limits on.
The King and Queen were reportedly
greeted by dozens of inverted Dutch flags hanging on the fences
surrounding the park, a symbol of the farmer protest movement against
the green agenda.
Voicing apparent support for the protest
movement, King Willem-Alexander said: “The Netherlands cannot do without
farmers. It’s not like, we have a problem and you have to solve it.
It’s not us against them. The appreciation has to come again and it’s
nice to be able to talk with you here.”

According to a report
from the Omroep Brabant public broadcaster, the constitutional
monarch’s words pleased many of the farmers present, with one
farmer, Frank Rooijakkers saying: “I think he will really talk to Rutte
in The Hague” on their behalf.
Explaining his situation to the King, Rooijakkers said: “I have a
great interest in clarity. In June we will be told that the nitrogen
must be halved. It is now September and there is still no clarity about
how it should be tackled and that is not expected. We always have to
think two steps ahead of political decisions.”
Pig farmer Henriette Driessen also voiced her concerns to the King,
questioning if farmers like her are “still wanted in the Netherlands?”
“We have been working on reducing nitrogen in Brabant for a while,
but I get the feeling that we are only being pushed back,” she said.
Another pig farmer from the area, John van Paassen, told the King
that he was forced to shut down his business, saying: “You sign a piece
of paper that you can never be a pig farmer again. That is very
difficult.”
Dutch agriculture minister resigns after farmers kick up a stink over pollution regulations

The Dutch agriculture minister has resigned amid a tumultuous summer of protests by farmers over pollution regulations.
Henk Staghouwer, who held the position for only nine months, announced his departure on Twitter.
He later told reporters that he wasn’t the right person for the job and would be resigning.
The
country’s lucrative agriculture sector has been in crisis since a 2019
court ruling forced the government to slash emissions of nitrogen oxide
and ammonia, which livestock produce.
Thousands of agricultural workers have staged protests, blockading cities with tractors and burning hay bales along major roads.
“Farmers and fishermen need certainty about where the sector is headed so that they can invest and do business,” he said.
Staghouwer
had just returned from Brussels, where he negotiated an agreement with
the European Commission to scrap a Dutch exemption to manure spreading
limits.
The Netherlands -- along with Denmark, Ireland and the
Flanders region of Belgium -- are allowed by the EU to exceed caps on
how much manure farmers could return to their fields.
This is due in part to the country’s comparatively small land area.
Brussels wants to phase this exception out because the Netherlands has failed to meet EU water quality standards.
Staghouwer
had been tasked with transitioning the sector away from intensive
farming practices and buying out farmers to reduce total emissions.
“I respect his brave decision,” Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte wrote on Twitter.
Staghouwer’s role will temporarily be taken on by former Dutch agricultural minister Carola Schouten.
Dutch farmers protest after being 'hurt very hard' by nitrogen emission targets
Dutch farmers are continuing to protest
government plans to halve nitrogen emissions by 2030, a move which they
claim will put many out of business.
The Netherlands is the
world's second largest exporter of agricultural goods, but intensive
farming methods and a high population density mean that nitrogen levels
have started to reach illegal levels – prompting the Hague to take
action.
The Dutch government says the targets are essential to
protect the country's air, water, soil and biodiversity – specifically
insects, which it says are vital to agriculture.
Farmers, though, say they have invested a lot in being environmentally friendly and that the new measures will "hurt very hard."
Meat and dairy farms are responsible for 41 percent of the country's nitrogen emissions through animal waste.
And
the plans to halve nitrogen emissions by 2030 could mean that over
11,000 farms would have to close, with another 17,000 farmers having to
reduce production, and so meaning a dramatic restructuring of Dutch
agriculture.
Farmers in the Netherlands say they will be hit 'hurt very hard' by nitrogen emission targets. /CGTN
There has been a summer of protests in the Netherlands by farmers.
"For
the first time in my life I went to a demonstration," said dairy farmer
Henk Schoonvelde. "I went with my tractor over the main roads, it was
really crazy to do, we were with thousands of tractors.
"The
reason is, in my opinion, this government uses the nitrogen problem for
other things. The Netherlands is very crowded and full and they need
space – the farmers, we have land and they want to use our land."
Farmers have been striking his summer claiming that many will be put out of business by the emission targets. /CGTN
The Farmers Defense Force has said that the Dutch agriculture industry is already one of the greenest in the world.
Jos
Ubels, vice-president of the Farmers Defense Force, said: "The targets
that our government is putting up now, they are hurting the farms really
hard because we invested a lot in the environment, in animal friendly
production.
"We can see that we are in the top five of the most
environmentally-friendly ways of production in the world, so we did a
lot already. But we're all family farms and we spent millions on this,
so we need to make that money back."
Dutch Farmers Protest As Government Tries To Slaughter 30% Of Their Livestock To Meet Climate Goals.
Farmers in The Netherlands have taken to the streets and have
been duking it out with police, as the Dutch governments is forcibly
trying to sequester farms and kill-off livestock in order to meet their
climate initiatives.
This article was originally posted on June 30th. New information and commentary has since been added.
In September of last year The WinePress reported
that the Dutch government released their proposals kill 30% of the
nation’s livestock supply, in a bid to reduce their nitrogen runoffs
and emissions.
Agriculture minister Carola
Schouten confirmed that forced sales of emissions rights or land would
be a last resort, but said some emitters “cannot carry on [as they are]
so we must ensure that we have the rules that are necessary.”
A snippet from that report
The Dutch nation is home to over 100 million cattle, swine, and chickens.
Two months ago The WP also reported that the Dutch government is investing lab-grown faux meats for sale and consumption.
Farmers Not Backing Down
But many of the farmers and ranchers in The Netherlands are not
willing to comply with the government’s move to ruin their operations.
Dutch media, along with the government, have condemned and frowned upon these farmers for resisting the government’s agendas.
‘The government has admitted that some farms will have to shut down
in areas which are particularly vulnerable to the impact of
nitrogen-based pollution, much to the fury of radical farmers, known as
the Farmers Defence Force,’ Dutch Newsreported on June 19th.
Over a week ago the farmer’s protest began to grow in strength and
number, as leaders of these coalitions and others involved began to
start visiting the homes of the politicians involved in this scheme, to
the point where the politician’s children were reportedly scared by
their actions, to which one of the group’s leaders, Mark van den Oever,
called nature minister Christianne van der Wal’s children “p******” for
being scared.
Our country is run according to the rule of law, not the rule of the tractor.
Said D66 parliamentary party leader Jan Paternotte
Demonstrations began on the 22nd, with anywhere from 20-30,000 protestors hitting the streets to rebel against the government’s compulsory climate edicts, leading to schools closing and road traffic being redirected.
We have always said we want to be
part of constructive talks, but if you see the plan two years later, and
nothing has been done with our contribution, then we have just been
wasting time.
Protest organizer and dairy farmer Jeroen van Maanen told local news
Netherlands News Livehas
reported that continued blockades around the nation have led to
logistical backlogs and delays, as deliveries are missing their flights
and destinations on time, along with street traffic backed-up as well.
Farmers have been blockading roads
with their tractors and haybales on different roads and highways. The
groups have alerted the public that there will be delays due to their
protests.
How Dutch protests ignited a global backlash to the ‘green’ war on farmers
Farmers drive tractors on the southern motorway
towards Auckland city during a protest against government regulations on
November 21, 2021, in Auckland, New Zealand
ALMERE, The Netherlands (RealClearInvestigations)
– Farmers in the Netherlands reduced nitrogen pollution by nearly 70
percent through a voluntary system. But the government says that is not
enough and is demanding that they cut pollution by another 50 percent by
2030.
By the Dutch government’s own estimates, 11,200 farms out of the roughly 35,000 dedicated
to dairy and livestock would have to close under its policies; 17,600
farmers would have to reduce livestock; and total livestock would need
to be reduced by one-half to one-third.
The Dutch government has demanded that animal farming stop entirely
in many places. Of the over $25.7 billion the government has set aside
to reduce pollution, just $1 billion is for technological innovation,
with most of the rest for buying out farmers.
This effort has sparked a fierce backlash among Dutch farmers, who
argue that the government seems more interested in reducing animal
agriculture than in finding solutions that protect the food supply and
their livelihoods.
“Why would you buy out farmers or reduce livestock when you have the
possibility to invest in innovation?” asked Caroline van der Plas, the
founder and sole Member of Parliament for the Farmer-Citizen Movement
party, or BBB in Dutch. “The car industry innovated for the past 40
years. There aren’t fewer cars and the cars we have are cleaner. We even
have electrical cars. That’s what I think is so crazy. Why don’t we
treat the farmers just like the car industry? Give them time to develop
solutions or innovate? We can produce food in a much more efficient and
cleaner way if we do that. And it’s much cheaper also then by buying out
farmers.”
Farmer protests in the Netherlands come at a time of heightened
global food insecurity created by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, a major
wheat exporter.
The Netherlands is the largest exporter of meat in Europe and the second largest
exporter of food overall by economic value in the world, after the
United States, a remarkable feat for a nation half the size of Indiana.
Farm exports generate nearly
$100 billion a year in revenue. Experts attribute the nation’s success
to its farmers’ embrace of technological innovation.
The Netherlands is just one of the countries where governments are
pushing for sharp limits on farming. Canada, for example, is seeking a
30 percent reduction in nitrogen pollution by 2030. While the Canadian
government says it is not mandating fertilizer use reductions, only
pollution reductions, experts agree that
such a radical pollution decline in such a short period will only be
possible through reducing fertilizer use, and thus food production. The
cost to farmers would be between $10 billion and $48 billion.
“If you push farmers against the wall with no wiggle room, I don’t know where this will end up,” said Gunter
Jochum, president of the Western Canadian Wheat Growers Association.
“Just look at what’s happening in Europe, in the Netherlands. They’ve
had enough of it.”
Where the proposed Dutch restrictions are driven by land and air
pollution concerns, the Canadian restrictions are driven by the desire
for strong action on climate change. But greenhouse gas emissions from
farming pale compared to those from energy. Where carbon emissions from
farming in Canada rose 87
percent to under 8 metric tons between 1990 and 2020, emissions from
oil and gas production tripled, adding 69 metric tons of carbon dioxide,
during the same period. With the pollution, however, came more food.
Canada’s spring wheat yields increased over 40 percent during the period.
The most dramatic consequences of
government intervention occurred in Sri Lanka, where a 2021 fertilizer
ban led to a massive reduction in yields, sparking starvation and an economic crisis that brought down
the government in July. Because agriculture is a source of greenhouse
gases, the efforts by the governments and the backlash they are
fomenting may be a harbinger of a global crisis.
Protest breaks out in Belgium over skyrocketing energy costs
People in Belgium take to the streets in 'a national day of action over increased cost of living.
Thousands of people from all over the country descended on the
Belgian capital Brussels on Wednesday for "a national day of action" to protest
against skyrocketing electricity, natural gas and food prices and the government's inaction in the face of this perfect storm of crises. The protestors also wanted to draw
attention to the sharp hike in the cost of living.
City offficials and senior police Officers
said that around 10,000 took part but in line with custom and practice in EU states when commenting on anti EU protests this is probavly a vast underestimate. People from across the country joined the protest, carrying banners reading "Life is much too expensive,
we want solutions now," and "Everything is going up except our wages,"
or chanting "Freeze prices, not people." City traffic
and public transportation was disrupted.
A
Belgian opinion poll this week suggested that 64% of respondents are
concerned that they will not be able to pay their electricity and
gas bills, which have more than doubled over the last year, while 80% of said they are already trying to make energy and water
savings.

"When
we go grocery shopping, the weekly shop now costs 20, 30 dollars
more at least, depending on the shop you go to, than this time last year. We are reaching a
point where our wallets can’t keep up," said Pascal Kraeso, a citizen of Brussels.
A few days ago Belgian Prime Minister Alexander de Croo warned
that "the next five to 10 winters will be difficult" because of high
electricity and natural gas prices fueled by Russia’s war in Ukraine. but with people all over Europe already at breaking point his warning was not well timed.
The European Union's
27 member countries have agreed to cut gas usage by 15% on average this
winter, and aim in particular to reduce demand during peak hours, although no government has yet explained how this will be achieved. EU
energy ministers are meeting next week to discuss the crisis.

Naturally they are blaming this on the embargo on importing gas from Russia but in reality Britain has never imported any more than a small amout of its gas from Russia. The real reason politicians and energy company CEOs are panicking is entirely due to their obession with obtaining all our energy from intermittent sources like wind and sunshine ...

Is Russia Selling Its Oil To The World Through An Obscure Egyptian Port? As this blog predicted when NATO and EU member states shot themselves in the foot by reacting to Russia's invasion of Ukraine with sanctions that prevented Russia from selling oil, gas and vital raw materials to the countries that needed them most, the NATO and EU member states, the Russians have had no problems finding alternative customers for their gas and oil and no problem getting oil into the world's commodity markets through the back door.

Green Dreams Menu It may be driven by virtue signalling or self hatred but the urge to destroy civilisation in order to save the planet and the ideological agenda that drive the gree movement are too far removed from the realities of life to ever achieve their aims.
Boggart Blog and The Daily Stirrer have been involved in the fight against globalism ( rebranded naziism,) since 2005. In that time we have seen news replaced by propaganda, free speech come under attack and censorship become the norm and the ruling elites openly waging war on the rights and liberties, the prosperity and the personal sovereignty of ordinary citizens.
As last we are seeing people waking up, grassrooots resistance movements growing into mass protests and both academics and members of the professions ready to risk their reputations and careers to challenge the lies and the authoritarianism of official narratives. But the attacks go on relentlessly, the latest is on the food we eat, the stuff that sustains life , and the people who produce it ...
As we reported earlier in the year, in order to comply with new, economically suicidal European Union environmental laws the Dutch government’s plans to force the closure of thousands of dairy and livestock farms in order to comply with the latest and most insane to date batch of EU environment laws which aim to limit notrogen as well as Carbon Dioxide emissions. The
European Union green agenda directive has been branded as the “Great
Reset turned up to eleven”.
Last week the globalist government of Netherlands National Socialist Prime Minister
Mark Rutte finally spelt out its plans to cut nitrogen emissions to in line with the EU’s Natura 2000 programme, which seeks to effectively outlaw agriculture activity near supposedly at-risk wildlife regions across the European Union. In the plans presented by WEF rentboy Rutte, the government will buy out (at a non negotiable price,) or simply confiscate in the case of farmers who will not sell,
between two and three thhousand farms in The Netherlands, starting by
as soon as April of 2023.
Even adolf Hitler and his brutal henchmen did not go that far.
The price farmers can expect to be
paid for their land has not been set, however, leaks have suggested that it will likely
be around 120 per cent of the estimated worth. This is a particularly slimy move because the farmers are being offered a 25% premium on the value of their land in return for compliance against nothing should they stand up to the authoritarian Bullies of Brussels
The government has said
that while it hopes the scheme will be voluntarily adopted, if enough
farmers refuse the offer, they will embark on forcibly seizing the land
from the farmers, who staged mass protests over the summer against the
plans.
Saying that there is “no better offer coming, nitrogen minister Christianne van der Wal told MPs on Friday that the government would “with pain in the heart” seize the land if necessary.
Commenting on the scheme, Dutch political commentator
Eva Vlaardingerbroek told Breitbart London: “What this shows you is
that the will of the people means nothing to our government. Despite all
of the protest and (inter)national backlash, they’re pushing through
with what I think are criminal policies.
“Our government doesn’t cater to the wishes of it’s own citizens, it
caters to globalist institutions whose interest it is to control the
food supply, so they can control us.”
She concluded: “It’s the great reset in full force.”
Earlier this year, Prime Minister Mark Rutte announced his intentions to cut nitrogen emissions from livestock farms in half by the year 2030 in order to satisfy goals laid out in the European Union’s insane Natura 2000 scheme, which requires that all EU member-states remove industry or farming from areas deemed to be of ecological importance.
It is nothing but an attack on the food security of EU citizens of course, nitogen makes up around 75% of the air we breathe and just as essential to life as Oxygen or Carbon Dioxide. The Dutch government has claimed that in order to meet EU goals, some farms may have to reduce their emissions by as much
as 95 per cent which would mean culling their herds by over 50% and that up to 30 per cent of all livestock farms may
need to be shut down for good. The threat of shutting down livestock farms is potentially disastrous for the Netherlands economically as the efficiency of the small nation's agricultural sector has made it the largest exporter of meat in Europe and the fifth-largest exporter of dairy produce in the world.
In response to the EU's authoritarian and ill advised scheme, thousands of farmers have regularly staged protests
throughout the country, using tractors to shut down motorways and other
critical infrastructure. These protests have spilled over into other EU nations with economically significant farming industries.
The attempts to shut down great swaths of the Dutch agricultural
sector come amid increasing concerns over food security due to the war
in Ukraine, which has traditionally been one of the bread baskets of
Europe, growing millions of tons of grain on its vast, almost empty, plains. The Netherlands national farming lobbying group estimates agriculture accounts for 54,000 businesses throughout the country and produced 94.5 billion euros in exports in 2019. It is also the largest employer.

Britain's newly installed Secretary of State for Energy, Grant Shapps, is still learning the job so perhaps we should cut him some slack, but even so a statement he made on our energy supply today shows astounding ignorance of technical details relating to his portfolio.
Answering a question in Parliament this morning about Britain's ability to reach its target of getting 40% of our energy needs from sustainable sources, Shapps sneered that it was not possible for us to reach 40% now as we already get 43% from wind. Unfortunately the sneering sarcasm was misplaced but served to reveal the man in charge of energy policy does not know the difference between energy and electricity.
In fairness to Grant Shapps, he is not alone when it comes to misunderstanding what role renewables play in our national energy supply. Ministers or seldom experts in their own righ on the topic their ministry looks after, instead receiving briefings from civil servants on matters they are required to pontificate on. And for thirty years Department of Energy civil
servants have been promoting wind power above all else as it provides the easiest opportunities for corporate investors and the rich to steal taxpayers money.
We understand that in fact, somewhat inconventiently for Mr Shapps renewables create around a notional 43% of our electricity, not our energy. Even then the figures are dodgy because biomass (i.e. burning wood pellets,) is counted as a renewable even though it takes trees years to grow, takes fertile land away from food production and emits more Carbon Dioxide per ton of fuel than either coal or gas. The true figures on how our electricity is sources are: Gas - 47%, Nuclear - 16%, Wind - 15%, Solar - 7%, Biomass - 7%, and the rest from hydro, coal and other fringe sources.
But that is just electricity and it is easy to understand that confusion in terms between energy and electricity when mainstream media talking heads use them interchangably. However the idea that
Britain is almost halfway to being powered completely by renewables adds to the great, green delusion of energy independence. is dangerous in that it fuels the scientific delusion that we are halway to 'net zero' already.
Electricity only accounts for 20% of our total energy supply. The rest comes from filthy fossil fuels, and will for the foreseeable future. So, renewables provide 40% of 20% which is a mere 8% of our energy needs.
As
a further necessary point, quite a decent proportion of that 8% comes
from burning dirty, CO2 producingt wood pellets and even more comes from nuclear, which though a zero carbon dioxide source is and even bigger bogeyman for the Exstinktion Rebellion crusties than burning old car tyres.
So,
the idea that we are nearly halfway to no-carbon renewable energy paradise is just more gaslighting of a population gullible enough to trot off and get a vaccine that doesn't work in order to protect themselves from a disease that is less likely to kill that tripping on your pajama trousers and falling downstairs. And how much CO2 does that amount of gaslighting generate?
