Court case to stop farmers blockading supermarkets before Christmas

Dutch News  

Supermarkets are taking the lobby group Farmers Defence Force to court to try to stop protests which they say will lead to empty shelves in the run-up to Christmas. FDF chairman Mark den Oever said he would send ‘a few thousand tractors’ to the offices of the CBL and their lawyers, Allen & Overy. ‘They want to deport a small minority of hard-working inhabitants because they live close to nature,’ he told a sitting of the Noord-Brabant provincial assembly. FDF said in a statement on Monday that it ‘regretted’ the offence caused, but added: ‘We are of the opinion that a number of comparisons are appropriate and show worrying similarities.’
