Protesters claim the Dutch government is lying about the extent of the emissions problem in order to grab privately owned land…
Thousands of Dutch farmers protested on Saturday against the government’s policies to reduce nitrogen emissions, warning they will put farms out of business and affect food production.
Hundreds of tractors from across the Netherlands could be seen driving to the event in The Hague ahead of regional elections this week, and more than 10,000 farmers were in attendance, according to the Reuters news agency.
Protesters accused the Dutch government of forcing farmers off of privately owned land in order to appease Brussels, and carried banners reading “No farmers, no food” and “There is no nitrogen ‘problem.’”

“We are fighting against a corrupt and unjust government,” Eva Vlaardingerbroek, a prominent campaigner in defense of the farmers, told attendees. She spoke of a government that “drives our farmers from their land” and which has “turned on its own population.”
“For centuries, our farmers have produced food for millions of people worldwide. And instead of what those liars in The Hague claim, they have done so in a responsible and sustainable way.”
🇳🇱Our farmers are fighting against the worst kind of injustice: a government that has turned on its own people.
The government created a lie to rob our farmers of their land. But we won’t let it happen. Our #DutchFarmers are an example to the world.

“But our cabinet doesn’t care about nature. They have simply created a lie to steal our farmers’ land,” she added.
Prime Minister Mark Rutte’s administration has vowed to take radical action to meet its ambitious target of halving the country’s nitrogen emissions by 2030, and has identified the country’s large agriculture sector as being the main culprit due to its large livestock count and use of fertilizers.
Last year, the government announced plans to reduce livestock numbers by a third, while farmers have also been told their land could be subject to compulsory buyouts.
Agricultural workers have staged several demonstrations against the government policy, blocking motorways and supermarket distribution centers in mass protests last year.
“These reductions are so severe that those rural communities will be totally devastated economically,” said Sander van Diepen, a spokesperson for the Dutch agricultural and horticultural association, LTO Nederland, in June last year.
Henk Staghouwer, the former Dutch agriculture minister appointed to see through the plans by Mark Rutte, resigned in September last year after a tumultuous summer fraught with mass demonstrations, admitting that upon reflection he was not “the right person to oversee the tasks in front of me.”
Regional elections for the Dutch Senate are scheduled to take place on March 15.

FOND MEMORIES OF AN ENGLISH LADY
looking back i can clearly recall dad speaking of Enoch Powell .
Dad did not like the lefty racists ,but like everyone esle loved Enoch
The Government are still encouraging immigration to here. Undemining the English peoples culture country history and families, in fact the interests they are suppose to represent.
Most Asains who I met in India had a lot of respect for UK. During the time the English run the country.
Compulsory free education. Free healthcare. Introduced. help for many Families
and while in hospital supplying food and help anyone without
But many families were helped by the local mosque and temples. I remember being told about an elderly man with cateracts who was resigned to losing his sight was amazed he could be treated and helped for free
by Britain.
While staying in Gondel. India. I got to know the local children in the street and use to help them with their English homework. Lovely kids. The mums were happy that the kids were getting free English lessons.
Reminded me of 50s london. Families living in A few rooms. Sharing outside toilets etc.
my boyfreinds flat seen as luxury with 3 rooms kitchen toilet and shower room and water. Some local people had to use the tap in the street for water.
Oh happy days surrounded by nice people. Dr Hatim was stunned that the neighbours would come to see me when I arrived and wave us off when we returned to UK.
He was amazed that the locals liked the friendly English lady.
Oh happy days
“Agricultural workers have staged several demonstrations against the government policy, blocking motorways and supermarket distribution centers in mass protests last year.”
Question: Why not target the offices of the politicos responsible for these insane policies? Blocking roads and supermarkets won’t make any real difference.
At the minute it’s at the protest stage. If the farmers lose some people may think it’s over but I think then it’ll move into the resistance stage. Some farmers may rent their land but most will own it, and landowners don’t just hand over their land to pirates. I think the resistance stage will be what our governments call terrorism, the IRA and Baader Meinhof kind, but what most right-thinking people will see as necessary.
If we don’t defeat these savages we’re all their targets for murder.
Its time to STOP the protests.
It’s time to TAKE IT – up close & personal – to the perps
Of course nitrogen is a benign gas that constitutes almost 80% of our atmosphere and it is native to our planet. It is not like it were conjured-up at CERN from the netherworlds.
In order to get our priorities right we have to identify and strictly regulate the things that these people who find fault with the natural things produce, things like concentrated radioactive elements, cobalt-60, plutonium, uranium and such like. We also have to stop them from synthesizing unnatural elements such as californium and others that do not exist in nature. And we have to clamp on their weird activities at CERN. And we need to get an explanation from them on their selection of the Hindu god of death Kali as their mascot of choice while we prepare the gallows.
“We are fighting against a corrupt and unjust government,” – now and in every nation on the face of the earth.
It will take more than protests and rigged elections to have honest and just governments.
I fully agree with Tony O’Neill.
When protestors constantly use tactics that harm ordinary workers, they lose support — so why?
And yet the protestors DO know what it’s all about. Governments have turned against their populations. Some sort of Anti-Globalist International (as strange as it sounds) must be formed to decide how to deal with these traitor regimes.
yes farmers, let Rothschild, B Gates + WEF plutocrates
grab your land . you will own nothing and be happy !
@cornelius kings lyn………………..What the hell has your socialist RANT got to do with this article?? You pathetic waste of air
Someone in Europe should send the EU farmers this document:
https://www.serendipity.li/climate/hieb/greenhouse_data.html
Nitrous Oxide (N2O) percent man made = 0.047%
They are shutting down farms for half of 0.1%.
You might want to save a copy to your hard drive also. Any activist could, for a few Euros, make copies of this document and send it to people who need to read it.
Rixon should publish it on the front page.
What Really Happened should also publish it and post a link, same for Jeff Rense.
If you have email to any prominent website then please share, or even better, call them.
SEVERAL BILL GATES CLIPS THROUGH THE YEARS ABOUT POPULATION CONTROL(DEPOPULATION)

Anthropogenic (man-made) Contribution to the “Greenhouse
Effect,” expressed as % of Total (water vapor INCLUDED)
Nitrous Oxide (N2O) 0.047%
——————–
So the total man made N2O emission for the entire planet is 0.047% of the greenhouse effect, so shutting down some Dutch farms is going to do what? Not a damn thing.
I predict that even if the EU shut down every farm there would be no measurable change in any global warming statistic.
You can bet China, Africa, Russia, South America are not going to do anything about N2O except increase it.
So shutting down some Dutch farms is double top secret retarded.
Yes it is a weird sort of a comment.
(The Cornelius guy)
How else will the globalists starve us and make us eat bugs and lab meat? Duh.
The farmers are not protesting, they are wasting time.
@cornelius kings lyn
Thank you for your comment. If not for it I would not have read up on Enoch Powell who was truly a great man – in spite all of the efforts to ruin his reputation by the detractors on the left. Although he may not have been right regarding his views on immigration and sending people back to their countries of ancestral origins, something which most Canadians like myself could never tolerate, he was right about most other things, including this views against English appeasement, Hitler, and Nazi Germany. However, he certainly was no lefty or communist. If alive today, I think he would be fully in support of the Dutch farmers’ movement in their efforts to bring down their corrupt government, and likely he would also be advocating that the people of the UK also rise up and take back control of their own nation.
