Update: The German government coalition has now almost certainly collapsed. No official announcement yet, leaders are still talking in the chancellery, but Finance Min Lindner has urged Scholz to pave the way for snap elections (likely in early March). First reported by Bild.

Trump is going to have to perform some balancing act to deliver on his promise to gut EV-friendly policies he called the “green new scam,” while also finding ways to support his new best friend Elon Musk’s ventures. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Let's not pretend we Europeans are much better though. Like after signing up to making drastic transport GHG reductions France and Spain are now pushing through tariffs specifically on one of the main tech to achieve that. While Ireland supported them

Dutch young journalist BENDERBIJ 🐝 was reporting on Maccabi Tel Aviv fans when one of them approached him and “warned” to stop filming. The Israeli fans can be seen in these videos, carrying steel pipes and throwing stones at homes.

Non-farmers bought more than half of the farms and estates sold on the open market in England in 2023, with farmers accounting for the lowest level of transactions on record. You’re supposed to be an economic expert, do your job ignoramous Dan Neidle rural.struttandparker.com/article/englis…

Looking at German electricity this week you could be forgiven for forgetting they've spent FIVE HUNDRED BILLION € on a renewable energy "transition" They're just straight up fossil powered! With high costs, high carbon, and a shrinking economy. I labeled it for you below.

This is a massive media scandal. Sky News posted a video accurately describing what happened in Amsterdam. It described violence perpetrated by Israeli football hooligans, and their hideous racism. They then deleted it. This is the original.

Watch this video and then read about what happened in Sri Lanka when they let the "experts" tell the farmers how to farm. #AgTwitter

So that's environmentalists, farmers and trade unionists all opposed to #Mercosur. The only interests it serves is large polluters, both car makers who want to continue selling fossil fuel based cars & extend the life of their factories, and deforestation beef. Wondeful

My latest for Agriland about why Greens got a lot blame (and sometimes credit) for policy with much more going on, eg Farm2Fork's push for Organic, Carbon budget etc. Some farmers seem to think all problems are solved now they're out, I'm not sure agriland.ie/farming-news/t…
