Farmers in Spain have joined their counterparts in France, Germany and many other EU member states as the stepped up their protests across the country against EU green and globalist policies which are driving up costs and restricting productivity for European farmers while making importation of foods and agricultural products from non - EU countries easier.
Like farmers elsewhere in the EU, they are demanding more flexibility from the European Union in its regulation of farmers in member states, particularly in policies related to 'net zero' which are having a catastrophic effect on farm profitability, tighter controls on the produce of non-EU countries and more help from their government.
In several regions, the farmers tractors blocked roads and caused severe disruption to motorists.
A large demonstration is planned for in central Madrid later this month.
Today (Tuesday 6 Feb 2024), we learn from the newsfeeds that farmers took to the streets of towns in the agricultural areas in Spain's northern provinces, as convoys of tractors, hooting their horns, flying Spanish flags and festooned with placards calling on the government to stand up to the unelected EU bureaucrats who are imposing these rules on governments.
The farmers also protested in the north-eastern region of Catalonia, the southern region of Andalusia and Extremadura in the west. The farmers share similar grievances with their counterparts in France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Italy and other countries that have been protesting recently.
They complain that regulations which form part of the EU's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) but are now linked to the WEF's great reset and the Green Blob's dreams of a Carbon Dioxide free dead planet, which along with high fuel and energy costs, make it difficult for them to make a profit.
"The costs, when it comes to producing wheat and barley, are very high," said Esteban, a cereal farmer who preferred not to give his surname who was protesting in Aranda de Duero. "You've got to pay for fertiliser, pesticides, fuel - it's killing us. We have to pay very high prices and yet we sell at low prices."

Germany Burns Net Zero Pledges And Fires Up Coal Generating Plants Ahead Of Winter Peak Electricity Season
On Wednesday this week Germany's coalition government approved putting coal power plants back online until the end of March 2024 to ensure energy security when natural gas supplies cannot meet demand.

Scientists says Nuclear Is The Way Forward For Clean Energy - Do Ursidae Defecate In Sylvan Landscapes?
Scientists, politicians and media have been screeching, for the past 30 or so years, about the need to transition away from carbon based fossil fuels, (coal, gas and oil,) as a matter or urgency or risk destroying the life supporting ecology of our planet by overloading the system with Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emitted from human activity. Next they'll be informing us, in their lofty and condescending way that yes, bears do actually shit in the woods.
Implosion of Germany's Green Party Threatens To Destabilse EU
With the defeat of Donald Trump in the 2020 US election, the far left parties in Liberal Democracies celebrated the defeat of the far right. At around the same time it appeared that Germany's AfD party, Italy's Lega and and the Sweden Democrats had been discredited and surges in their popularity had been halted by negative propaganda campaigns while Germany's Green Party were at the height of their popularity and were hailed as Europe's great hope for a clean, net zero, woke, gay and trans friendly future.

Minister's Claim That 40% UK Energy Comes From Renewables Is Technically Illiterate
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.

With some energy sector opinion makers already pronouncing the 'net zero' agenda is already dead as oil and gas supplies from Russia dry up due to NATO / EU sanctions and Moscow's retaliatory export bans which have only been in force a week at the most, governments in the liberal democracies of Europe and North America are already talking about starting up redundant coal and nuclear power stations, the UK, Netherlands and other nations with offshore gas operations in the North Sea are suddenly finding that it may now be economically viable to start pumping again and (whisper it ever so quietly,) coal is coming back into the reckoning as an energy source ...
