Rechtsextreme Gruppen planen, den Protest der Landwirte in London gegen Steueränderungen zu kapern

Far-right groups are seeking to hijack a farmers’ protest in London against tax changes introduced by the chancellor, Rachel Reeves.

Extremists, including close associates of Tommy Robinson, have been using social media to urge supporters to turn up at the protest on Tuesday, as farming leaders sought to remind those attending of their responsibilities.

The event is being eyed as a major opportunity for exploitation by the far right, who are seeking to promote Jeremy Clarkson as a hero after he claimed the UK government had a “sinister plan” to “ethnically cleanse” farming communities.

The former presenter has become a meme on far-right social media accounts as activists and extremist influencers applauded his comments. Nick Griffin, the former leader of the British National party, posted a picture of himself in the broadcaster’s Oxfordshire pub.

“Jeremy Clarkson nails it,” said Griffin, as he shared Clarkson’s comments.

Paul Thorpe, a far-right YouTuber, published a video message urging his followers to join the protest, stating: “I’ll be there to support our farming community and I hope as many of you patriots will be there too.”

Activists from the extremist group Patriotic Alternative have been staging stunts for some time in an attempt to piggyback on farmers’ concerns. Their rivals in another far-right group, Homeland, have also sought to drum up support on the back of Clarkson’s comments.

Conspiracy theorists are expected to also be out in force to promote a narrative that there is a globalist plot to control food supplies.

Trouble has marred similar farmers’ protests in Europe, including in the Netherlands where police fired shots at tractors. But the organisers of the protest, a group of farmers who fear the changes brought in by Reeves will decimate agricultural businesses, say they want no troublemakers or political point scoring

>A debate has been taking place in the farming community about whether Nigel Farage, the leader of Reform UK, should speak. He offered to, but some were worried he would make the event about him and take attention away from the cause.

That worry is 100% valid

It’s not as if farmers are generally left wing in the first place. They all tend to vote Tory.

Maybe the farmers need to put their assets under their business, like every other family business in britain, instead of claiming them as private property and we call all move on.

Are we going to ignore the fact that farmers as a group in general are probably one of the most right wing demographics in the UK.

Oh no you need to pay some inheritance tax on the acres and acres of land that you own.

In the words of a popular TV farmer “oh no!!!…..anyway”

“Far right” they absolutely love that term. It seems anyone with any sort of common sense is now “far right” these days

Are these “far right” groups in the room with us right now?

Surely everyone can see through all this nonsense by now.
