Don't hold back!
OPINION: ACT MP Mark Cameron isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, but he certainly calls it how he sees it, holding nothing back when ‘climate scientists’ had a crack at Kiwi farmers recently:
OPINION: Your old mate sees that Dutch agricultural minister Henk Staghouwer has been forced to resign, following widespread protests from that country's farmers.
Staghouwer was leading the Dutch agriculture ministry's climate policy that involved confiscating farms in a forced government buy-out scheme.
In the wake of the huge protests from farmers, he has now been forced to step down.
The Dutch government's climate agenda involves cutting nitrogen emissions from the nation’s farming sector to the point where farmers claim it would make it impossible for them to continue operating.
In July, over 40,000 Dutch farmers took to the streets in protest of the policy, blocking roads with tractors and defacing government officials’ homes.
This old mutt wonders if our agriculture minister is watching?
