INPRIMATU
Smell of growing mouths
  • The demonstrations of the peasants throughout the French State have resumed. Despite the demands of the various trade unions, the first one that has been heard and that has been invited to the mainstream media has been the "dominant" FNSEA. What do you have to sell? A multitude of lies to get votes in January. Fortunately, here, unlike many other territories, it has strong opposition.

At the beginning of the year, the fire was extinguished gradually. And if no one seemed satisfied and pleased, he came home to occupy his cattle, cows or land. The rising costs, the intolerable administrative burden, environmental measures, the sluggish profits that had to be reported at the end of last winter, according to the members of the "majority union". Not all farmers shared these reasons, but in general everyone agreed that this trade was, as usual, inexpugnable and that in all countries peasants were allowed to be exploited in the interests of powerful people. Although they belong to different unions, most of them share that feeling. It's like goats. The new slaves of the 21st century, working 70 hours a week to win a gluck at the end of the month.

However, the storm calmed down. The strongest union hit the end of the air intake and everyone was forced to go home. Since then? A small measure there, another one here, a lot of pesticides in your hand and a little control in your friends. And now shut up! That is enough. You have to work for the agro-industry to fill your pockets.

A wolf keeps sheep

That's the image that's come to my mind, and that's that the FNSEA chooses itself. It is not the first time that this union has chosen a person who is against the interests of farmers.

Arnaud Rousseau, like Xavier Beulin several years ago, is the chairman of the Avril agro-industry company and, at the same time, the main French agricultural union of farmers. In 2023, the Avril group made a business amount of EUR 8 miles. In the same year, it dedicated EUR 400,000 to lobbying activities in the French state, with the aim of defending its industrial interests. We could list many figures and examples to show that these people have no intention of defending the labourers. Although it is obvious, it represents some farmers around us and many French farmers. How can a sensible farmer accept such a representative? What could we think if most factory workers chose the head of MEDEF as a representative? The simple local peasants have their local representatives, where is this system broken until such time as a wolf is chosen? However, after several months of silence, he calls his lovers to wash again. They're elections in January, and you have to make some noise for believers to continue to believe.

Choice of Popular Culture

Maluruski, by definition, a believer doesn't change religion suddenly, having heard two or three arguments. Some, having taken the yolk as quickly as possible, take the other, but very few. In our territory, in these 40 years it has been shown that another path is possible. This path is moving forward. Every day he draws the trail step by step. For the votes that have arrived, the members of the ELB list are also the champions of the direct struggle. They are presented so that many farmers can last.

Guarantee of decent prices, quality items and benefits, consume as local as possible, multi-service public, solidarity, transmission. Here is a document from the OECD programme. A union with values that safeguard the future of agriculture in the Basque Country. All voices will be count. All of us who believe in the future of our trade, let us vote for the ELB!
