Less than a year after the first actions, the anger of farmers is expressed again. A hundred operators gathered to light a big fire of anger and despair on the Quai des Chartrons in Bordeaux Monday evening, to launch the mobilization because nothing has changed according to the FNSEA and the Young Farmers. And to say no to the trade agreement which seems imminent between the European Union and Mercosur. This Tuesday morning, in Créon, the Rural Coordination of Gironde is following suit. 50 tractors left Créon a little before 6 a.m. Direction the Gironde prefecture, where Etienne Guyot, the prefect is to receive them in the morning.
Just before at 7:30 a.m., a stop and a concert of horns in front of the town hall of Pessac, to be heard. “We talk a lot about Mercosur but we are already in the m… We need to lower taxes and charges. And we have been being pushed around for years” confides on France Bleu Gironde, one of the members of the Rural Coordination in Gironde Vincent Colineau, farmer in Monségur. Before getting back on the road, manure, wooden stakes and manure were dumped in front of the entrance to the Pessac town hall.
Traffic difficulties are expected on their entire route and in the city center of Bordeaux, and potentially on the Metropolis Tram and Bus network throughout the day, specifies the Gironde prefecture.
