“Do you give farmers false hope?”

Caroline van der Plas is now the main character for Farmers and this BBB’er is doing really well in the polls. I joined last night news hour I totally wondered about her approach. Because it gives farmers “false hope” in this nitrogen crisis?

After days of farmers’ protests, the House of Representatives is currently in recess. We have to wait for the moderator Johan Remix. But there seems to be no middle ground for farmers yet. In opinion polls, BBB leader Caroline van der Plas has 9 to 13 seats to her name and her popularity is growing.

I’m curious how Tweet embed Caroline van der Plas will be tested. They are usually adept at dealing with politicians through their words and actions.

I will not refuse them in advance that they invited her.

Presenter Jeroen Wallers criticizes Caroline van der Plas

I joined news hour† The program often criticized by politicians. Lt. Col. Jeroen Wallers did the same with BBB. He noted, for example, that van der Plas often talks about the “ridiculous” nitrogen crisis, but does not deny that something needs to be done about nitrogen. The government wants to reduce nitrogen emissions in the Netherlands by 50%. Wollaars wonder what standard Van der Plas would he like to use? To which van der Plas replies that if the law states that 50 per cent must be achieved, it must be done.

The politician stresses that she is not completely against nitrogen policy. But in the discussions, Lentje suggests there will be an agenda to frustrate the farmer. Wollaars also starts with that. He concludes that van der Plas undermines science. Van der Plas answers: “There is no such thing as science.” “Science has continued to ask critical questions of each other. I look critically at scientific reports.”

# new He also wants to go to the brown cafe. After all, if you want to add more fuel to the fires of the ever-increasing peasant protests, what do you do?

double agenda

But according to Wollaars, Van der Plas uses two criteria there. He spoke about newspaper research agency Agrifacts, which Van der Plas mentioned in a roundtable discussion in the House of Representatives. According to Wollaars, the board of directors of this independent institution is full Representatives of farmers and farmers “They pretend to be different than they are,” he says of Agrifacts. But according to the BBB leader, this is no secret. The presenter assures that this institution also has an agenda. “Exactly as you accuse scientists?” , but van der Plas explains that anyone can attend a roundtable discussion. Different parties invite different experts.

Van der Plas in breach of farmers in Nieuwsuur

“Farmers get a certain hope out of this, and farmers think there might still be room. Isn’t that a false hope that it will stir up among farmers?” asks announcer Van der Plas. “You have to look closely at what the European Commission wants,” the BBB leader answers. We have to conserve nature and we have to work on it. There is no farmer in the Netherlands who says, “I want nature to deteriorate.” According to her, you can do this by means other than “we are strictly reducing 50 or 74 percent.”

Because according to Van der Plas, farmers have been making cuts for decades. They did not sit on their hands. This farmer, this is the craftsman. In the Netherlands, we are very bad at engaging professionals. But the technocrats, the staff, and everything that surrounds them, are involved. Craftsmanship has to be at the fore in the Netherlands and the farmers have proven themselves to be professionals.”

Very strong performance by Caroline van de Blas Lord save her Bee # new†
