Federated Farmers Praises Labour's Emissions Tax Backdown
For the first time in a quarter of a century, Federated Farmers has something positive to say about the Labour Party’s climate change policy leading into a general election.
‘Climate Doom Loop’ sounded ominous.
Turns out it’s more than a bit revealing of the true agenda behind many of the lanyard-wearers who racked up the airpoints to attend COP30 – they are rabid opponents of livestock farming, trying to implicate farmers in the death of their own livestock: “Millions of farmed animals are killed each year by floods, storms and heatwaves driven by climate change, yet the very system they are reared in is making the situation worse”, they said, followed by a quote that reveals their true agenda: “Governments must take urgent action to reduce emissions and livestock production as well as meat consumption in richer countries”.
