Henri is on a roll. “What is this story? We impose rigorous rules on our farmers and breeders so that we, the consumers, can buy quality products from them and now they want to shove us products with lots of junk, without controls that we have here? That they continue to hold demonstrations, we must put pressure on them… Our farmers do a great job and I wish them lots of courage. Irene agrees. “I understand them and I support their movement. The promises have not been kept. It was a local guy, Jérôme Bayle de Montesquiou I think, who started the movement. Everything is at a standstill, we have to start again The extravagantly imposed standards should be reviewed Let us admit that we import products from Europe, but no, we have great farmers, we are very happy to find great products on the market. and they defend us.” More nuanced comments from Sébastien “I am very divided, it is certain that this is a very mistreated and disappearing category of workers. But why? Certainly, there is unfair competition from countries which do not respect the standards that we impose on our farmers and breeders, but on the other hand, were they able to adapt to the predictable change that was going to be imposed on them? In any sector of activity, it was necessary to change? shoulder gun to adapt, didn't they rely too much at a certain point on unadapted subsidies which did not prepare them? “It's obvious that they are right, the cattle criteria of South America are such that it is normal for us to defend the quality of our livestock, intervenes a thirty-year-old who works in Toulouse. But, we must recognize that blockages, strikes and their hazards, that bother us in our jobs too. Let's not talk about the SNCF which must be “preparing” for its annual strikes during the Christmas holidays. In Italy, there are periods when you cannot strike, but I recognize that it is more effective when they disturb the population. Overall, everyone agrees to support the demonstrators. “We can only respect the courage and determination of these men and women who do one of the most beautiful, but most difficult jobs, and among the least lucrative. Personally, I do not 'would never have had this courage' concludes Isabelle
