Early last month, French President Emmanuel Macron shocked Europe by urging the European Union to take a break from imposing additional regulations on struggling industries. The EU has already done “more than its neighbors” to save the planet from environmental doom, said Macron. Any further steps would pose risks for European manufacturing and thus prosperity.
Perhaps seeking to present himself as the true leader of a united Europe, Macron has been speaking out on a wide variety of topics in recent weeks – apologizing to Eastern Europe for not listening to their warnings about Russian aggression while also suggesting that negotiations with Russia’s leaders be followed by pursuing Vladimir Putin and others for war crimes.
A major reason for Macron’s call for a halt to further self-flagellation over the “climate crisis” is his view that, “We are ahead, in regulatory terms, of the Americans, the Chinese, and of any other power in the world.” In another speech, Macron said, “I prefer factories that respect our European standards, which are the best, rather than those who still want to add standards and always more – but without having any more factories.”
Macron’s comments were followed a week later by word that the European People’s Party (which includes Germany’s Christian Democrats) is considering withdrawing its support for the European Commission’s Green Deal. That’s the set of proposals that includes EU-wide targets for eliminating carbon dioxide emissions by 2050 – which 11 EU countries have already adopted.

This coincides with the serious revolt against the EU Green insanity in the Netherlands. I think the Dutch farmers are rocking the Euroweenies to the bone. 👍👍
Make those commies in Brussels constantly be watching over their shoulders waiting for a cow turd sammich to be hurled their way…or worse.
Meanwhile the Irish gov’t takes up the banner by going after farmers.

This is what happens when Europe sanctions Russia, did they really think cutting off their own hand was gonna lead to anything good?
“...really think cutting off their own hand was gonna lead to anything good...” Yoops, so there’s that. Just sayin’. Indicates why so many of our ancestors chose to move out of there.
