Netherlands: 30,000 farmers driving tractors to protest the government’s environmental policies
The imposition of environmental policies by the Rutte government, a minority, remotely controlled by Brussels, is creating profound protests in the country, because it risks erasing a substantial part of its agricultural economy. This brought 30,000 farmers complete with tractors onto the highways. Here are some videos, which obviously were ignored in Italy of the impressive gathering

The protest derives from the imposition of an absurd legislation by the government against the emission of greenhouse gases, in this case based on nitrogen and ammonia, compounds that derive essentially from animal husbandry. The government's goal is to reduce the number of animals raised by 30%, but this, of course, would lead to the closure of a large number of farms, some of which are centuries old. All this will be sacrificed in the name of the ideology of the new European USSR and its centralized planning.
The Netherlands are traditional exporters of meat to the rest of Europe, so there will also be heavy repercussions on the prices of these food products in other countries. The Rutte government is well aware that there will be very heavy repercussions on these companies, but in any case it has stated that… it does not care, that companies must change and that the legislation will be implemented in any case. What will these sacrificed farmers do on the altar of climate change? They will either stick to the tram, or switch to even stronger forms of protest.
Obviously you will never hear anything of these fallout from the Commission's environmental policies in Italy, where they only invite extreme environmentalists who do not live off their work on TV.
