No. These are not regular farmers. None of the legitimate farmers organisations have endorsed this protest, *and* farmers can't and don't take days off at the drop of a hat and *especially* at this time of year. This is a far right rally in disguise (of true believers and a lot of easily led eejits)

Mostly I believe farm "contractors" (they work for farmers on contract basis) and then (from what I saw anyway) a few coach companies and haulage companies.
Anyway, I saw one with a 'coffin' that said "RIP IRELAND" on the side. They ain't sending their brightest lol

Have any of the farmers' organisations condemned the protest? The difference between a farmer, a farm worker and a farm contractor is semantic dancing on the head of a pin. If it drives a tractor, it's a farmer
