      Carl Young discovered that there is a collective unconscious connected to all humans meaning that the whole of humanity shares a single mind with one another, this is evident in the world through accounts of shared mythology and symbols the study of morphic fields and with the science of kinesiology this collectivity is a global example of the unconscious mind of the human body in which trillions of cells share a similar signal this parasite called our false ego requires a continuous flow of sustenance to survive food fuel and any other form of sustenance is energy.
      Science of sound shows that sound is something more than mere vibratory signals, not only does sound interact with life but it sustains and develops it, it act as a conduit of conscious intent between people, societies and entire civilisations. Yet the psychic Illness we endure due to the dominance of our false ego is reflected in the collective, our psychological schism has shut us off from communicating correctly with our inner self which is exactly how cancer cells work within the body operate, in collective we have created a language barrier between humanity and the rest of nature acting as a global cancer.

The stringent rules are inevitable when you deal with an industry that is damaging to the environment, whether they make sense in given edge cases or not. People didn't care because people didn't know, there was no public appreciation of this issue really until Clarkson's Farm, this is an issue which the general public aren't directly effected by and just like the litany of other far more serious issues, like the justice system (at all levels) and health system people are more concerned about their imminent concerns like paying the energy bill, rent, and not being homeless.

      Britain can never have food sovereignty if we have to import all of our phosphates. One of our first deals after Brexit became a reality was with Morocco to make sure the tap didn’t get turned off. We relied on the Turks & Caicos Islands for fertiliser until we mined it to a husk and gave it back.
      And who owns our polyhalite reserves? Well, that would be Israeli Chemicals Ltd, after they were handed to them on a plate by the Turncoat Tories. Good luck feeding 65m+ Brits on potato peelings.

      Listen I am curious. If you had a option to buy milk for 1 Pound made in Brazil of milk for 4 Pounds made in the UK (without subsidies) which one would you choose? I agree with you and the people in the video that they need to be supported, but what you are essentially asking is to ban imports and then either forcing people to buy more expensive UK products or using government money to bring down the cost of UK made products (in effect socialising the production of milk, meat etc.). The term for this is protectionism which is fine but it is important to understand what you want.
      If only there was this common market that allowed you to easily export your products to neigboring countries and import cheap labour to make the farms more competitive.

    Every farmer I know is Tory voting and train their kids to vote Tory while complaining about government handouts to poor people. There is some delicious irony in them begging for that while complaining about the result of their voting.
    But they're not entirely wrong, seeking to cut costs by using overseas has crippled every British industry and for the last few decades everything has been about making a quick profit rather than sustainable and secure futures for our country and citizens. Self serving greedy MPs have no idea what they're discussing most of the time and mainly just want the perks rather than to give public service.

Guess how they produce that CO²!They actually burn to achieve it! Hydrocarbons should be reducing as EV adoption etc is increasing exponentially.
      The CO² they speak of, and for that matter the methane, is that from animal agriculture. Think you need to understand how cows work. There is no human created alternative more efficient at producing protein and all the essential amino acids a human needs in their diet than nature's herbivores.

      A lot of food perishes on long distance shipping which means producing more to cover waste and the sea is much more important to protect than forests as even if you were to cut down the rain forest in its entirely the sea is still covering 60%+ of CO2 intake and O2 output, it would certainly make things worse but it is truly a secondary issue to screwing up the ocean acid levels due to the heavy oil fuels used by tankers and the waste they dump.

      The whole town centre lacks foot traffic!
      It's a shame because it's a beautiful cobbled town with many historic buildings. I used to shop there ALL the time. It was as good as a day out.
      I used to work on the market in my youth selling jeans and t-shirts directly behind the fruit and veg stall.
      The stalls are mainly empty now because people choose the convenience and the free parking of a one stop shop at the supermarket that now sell something of everything. The market used to sell more! A lot more choice and variety no matter what you were buying.
      I would argue that the now expensive and restricted town centre parking is what really killed it, not the price of goods.
      Can't blame Covid because it was dying way before then.
      A pair of Levi's from our stall was around 33% cheaper than anywhere else in or around town. My boss was still a wealthy man. We also sold work jeans for as little as a fiver! You would double that now as it was a few years ago, but it's still half the price of Tesco!
      I know the fruit and veg stall owners well. They are very wealthy too and are one of the few stalls still standing to this day. They are still cheaper than the supermarket and sell much better quality produce. They always sell out too.
      There's also a fruit and veg stall that now stands at the entrance to the local hospital. Again cheaper and better quality.
      Want quality cheap meat? ...got to an abattoir.
      It's all local produce.
      I grew up on a small organic farm.
      We didn't need subsidising. We had enough to feed our 2 families and sold everything locally and often direct to the public.
      If you've never eaten fresh veg from the field or an egg straight from the chicken you are missing out. I also remember our freezer was always full with our own animals. I confess I ate Tiddles the lamb and Berty the boar. I named them, raised them and then ate them. Real meat. Not pumped up with brines and other preservatives.
      Fun fact: the human body is now taking longer to decompose when you die. That's all the preservatives you are eating. I bet you don't even read the labels. The labels aren't even telling you the truth! Remrmber, you are what you eat. Price isn't everything. Quality counts. Real whole food. Food with no hidden chemicals or extras. The flavours ring out!
      The veg in the supermarket is how can I say this politely... comparitavely rotten! Still covered in chemicals.
      We turned a good profit on our farm. We didn't go without. Only those farmers that are contracted to the supermarket need subsidising as they are being ripped off. Their costs have gone up. Supermarket prices have gone up. However, the farmer is bound by his contract at pre pandemic, pre pre inflation, and pre price hike prices. They are working for pennies while the supermarket makes pounds!
      A family apple pie to the door of a food processing plant costs around 40p. That's the farmer and the migrant factory worker paid. The farmer is hardly turning a profit.
      The factory worker is on minimum wage and really doesn't care what goes into your pie and it may well have human ingredients that aren't listed, may have been on the floor, who knows. The supermarket then sells that pie for a minimum £1.50. Even on the reduced at 75p they are still making a profit. Interesting!
      We sold our farm many years ago. It was bought by a guy that converted it to a holiday home with outdoor adventure as a theme. It used to be a quiet, peaceful farm. Now all you hear and smell is quad bikes rallying around the fields all day. So much for reducing CO².
      Other farmers are currently converting to solar farms. Do you understand why that's actually bad?! You should never put solar over green fields. It kills the environment. They're not even efficient. 22% at best. The rest is converted to heat! Anyone for global warming? Wind turbines also warm the land. Why? Because that wind is what cools the land. The UK has effectively built a wind block all the way around our island. 50% of the time the sun is too low in the sky to produce and 50% of the time it rains! Grass and cows do it so much better. It's not true that there's always wins when the sun doesn't shine.
      As I still live in a rural area. May I add, a place of outstanding beauty. I will honestly say I'll miss the farms when they're gone. A walk in the countryside (if we're allowed) won't quite be the same.
      Rewilding... includes wolves and feral cats.
      Huge wind turbines and PV arrays everywhere you look.
      Or when we've covered the land with houses to accommodate all the people coming in.
      Walking in the countryside just won't quite be the same.
      A sustainable future... yeah right...
      ...remember no, farmers no food!
      This little Isle can't sustain the current population.
      ... and what they sell in the supermarket isn't what you could actually call food.
      The free market isn't making the decisions anymore. It's the legislation! EVERYTHING is being PUSHED in a particular direction. You might not be a socialist just yet... but it is coming. You will be.
      I also believe muslim is becoming our new religion and the woke agenda will simply end up back in the closet and be persecuted for ever coming out.
      Historically, it always comes in three's, doomed to repeat because we never learn.
      Health. War. Regime change.
      ...and it's inevitable.
      This country is doomed. Our culture and traditions are being irradicated before our eyes.

      A simple refrigerated vending machine in a small hut at the side of the road wins this time. Sells other things too.

    It is imperative that we refrain from alienating our farmers. They are indispensable in providing food, and without their crucial contribution, we would face significant challenges.

    Absolutely agree with farmers regarding imports and trade deals. Must meet same Uk standards to be fair.
    Hugely tough job, full respect.
    However don’t agree with mass chicken farming devastating rivers like river wye, and then expecting subsidies for trashing environment.

    So weird that the Mail and Sun aren't screaming about how extreme these farmers are and bleating on about blocked ambulances!!!

      Probably because they’re not blocking every road at a time people are by tying to get to work. Also if an ambulance wanted to get by though, they’d let them without argument. Oh and the the issue they’re protesting about is actually important.

      @@benjaminsimpson5089 lol. These guys are created waaay more disruption than a dozen people walking down the road.
      JSO always get out of the way of ambulances. They did an FOI request with the ambulance service and they confirmed that JSO had never caused any disruption to an ambulance in an emergency.
      The actual reason why the right wing press gives these farmers a pass is because farmers are politically allied with the right of politics, because they are all businesses and large landowners.

      ⁠@@michaelrchIf you truly think a leftist movement can survive without the farmers you're off your fucking head.
      Just Stop Oil cannot just blame the media for their woes. They are a stupid movement. Using Anarchist protesting tactics that were proven not to work a hundred years ago, stupid. You cannot gain the support of the people by making their lives worse publicly. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Just Stop Oil was funded by the Tories, thats how stupid they are.

      @@michaelrch The biggest disruption is at Dover, where it should be. Other protests are happening in Wales and bits around the UK, oh and all over Europe. They’re not sat in the road stopping Colin the local scaffolder going to work, they’re disrupting foreign food imports, which again, they should be.
      As mentioned in all the interviews and reports, this isn’t about bananas and oranges and other things we can’t grow. But importing meat, milk and all sorts that we do produce, but in a way that undercuts our farmers which is wrong. A cause many can get behind, because it’s something everyone understands. JSO however, came across as a bunch of middle class hoorays who were just determined to make the general public, who have no power whatsoever over climate change, suffer.
      I also notice the left wing media, such as the BBC, The Guardian or The Mirror also aren’t saying anything on the apparent disruption in London. So maybe, it just isn’t as bad as you say it is.
