- LIGHTS flashing and horns blaring, 3,000 tractors trundled through Hanover in Germany bringing its streets to a gridlocked standstill.
Stepping down from his cab, arable farmer Axel Friehe told me his beleaguered nation’s economy is “breaking down”.

We need our farmers..we don't need politicians...
real
Thank you to the German farmers! Much love to you ALL from America ❤
Thank you very much! You have really understand, for what the German Rebellion has started for.
Yes! Thank you!
loving those American John Deere tractors
America will join soon!! Canada is joining NOW!!!❤❤❤
That's what happens when you're in the EU. Endless bureaucracy and costs
It's happening in all of the big countries.
@@thomasshingleton9289 But in Germany it’s more extreme!
@@Netzjargon Are you in Germany?
@@thomasshingleton9289 yes
Nothing to do with E.U.
Germany bent over and accepted the destruction for Nordstream.
When it was their so called friends who screwed them.
It's not just German farmers,
French, Belgium, Dutch, Romanian ate all rising up
Canada just joined!!!!!❤❤
Only far right when its not in line with the depopulation agenda.
Full support to the farmers we actually need them.
Anything to the right of Marx is far right. They allowed Biden to bomb their gas line, then want to send more money to Ukraine that only winds up with more vanished Ukrainian males that look just like me? Now Zelindky just orders 50k in womens uniforms?
Better far right than far left. The left killed hundreds of millions in the 20th century through failed ideologies.
Wtf is a depopulation agenda
God bless the farmers!
We all know the real "agenda"...
"The government needs money, they will take it from the farmers, so we are angry."
Human history.
Wrong. By increasing cost of fuel, everything will get even more expensive. The government is spending like crazy on immigrants while forgetting who earns that money. This has to change.
The farmer was the only one to explain it properly, the MSM are calling it a subsidy, it's not , they don't have to pay a road tax because they don't normally use the road, imposing a tax for something you don't use is Theft by government.
Bless these farmers. Much love from America. We feel your pain!
AMERIKKKA 😊
Far Right, my arse.
Anyone that does not get on both knees for Klaus is far right.
@@TuckerTV-rb3rdbringing that in modern era, eh?
@chrisblay....It's always the same ploy to defame people they're most afraid of. The current government in Germany goes one step further: they want to ban the AfD completely and are already calling them fascists! This clearly shows how afraid they are of the AfD because they are becoming more and more popular and votable among the German population. The "cry" for a new government/new elections is getting louder and louder among the people!
Exactly 500 years ago there been the german peasants war...
Will history repeat?
Today's farmers in Germany are highly literate, including with computers and cell phones. They have many skills to operate their farms
German farms are some of most technologically advanced in the world, not only in an agricultural sense but also as a job sector.
@@oligultonnso why not use that technology to help farm?
@elishafollet5347 I don’t know about German farmers but I know that US farmer use technology to help improve yields but the technology has switched to focus on precision because the amount that a farmer can invest in the crop to increase the yields has been leveling out at least in the last decade or so in the south eastern United States Alabama
Full support for farmers. Thank you .
As a farmer in uk we are having similar problems with our government but we just put up with it .I don’t think it’s anything to do with right wing politics making us feel unwanted
Germany needs to ‘plough’ more money into the farming sector.
Respect for the farmers. Stop sending money to Ukraine!
Farmers, you are supported by me and my friends here in Malibu California. 💪
Don't mess with farmers.
Romania salutes you🇷🇴🤝🏻🇩🇪we going through the same thing right now
This is great, collective power will for those at top to do whats the people want.
You can fool some of the people some of the time.. but you can't fool all the people all of the Time.. all THANKS to Merkel.. this is her legacy..
Ihr Ehemann hat sich ihrer scheinbar schon entledigt. Sie haben sich getrennt.
Thank you to the Sun newspaper for reporting this unlike the mainstream TV stations in the UK
Go farmers!!! Viva la verdad y la libertad!!
😢❤ Good morning Germany or my sister with my sister in Germany and whatever you need Germany Abra loved this country I visited
The new people need paying.
FREEDOM!! FREE GERMANY!
Far right ffs = normal people
They are not far right or left right
If your once conservative party (CDU) becomes left you will get a new conservative party (AfD). Very normal.
At last some UK mainstream coverage apart from GB news. We need to highlight UK farmers as well.
Germany doesn't care they want money for Ukraine easy and simple
basically all the farmers waking up in the world--- except north america 😬😑🫤
cdu spokesman being interviewed... not only did the current government fail to manage their budget, the CDU governed decades before and initiated the process that has culminated now. The CDU and AFD also voted in favor of abolishing the subsidies
😭👍🫵⛪☝️🌱🌾Or the sister who lives in Germany and is married to a niece of German nationality, her husband is a hard worker like boi,
Let my farmers go. Or else
USA stands with farmers world wide. Farmers in every country should be tax exempt. Make Farmers Wealthy Globally ~Beekeeper in Missouri 🐝🐝
Why so many Green
2:17 Cute but true statement on this tractor
Loads of John Deere tractors using British crankshafts.
Coming to UK if labour get in
🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜😊❤👍
i remember long ago that farmers were only alowd to drive 8 miles a day not sure if germany was the same but in kilometres
Germany is in "freefall"? What a joke. It is like, you are driving at the speed of light and everybody's concern is why you cannot drive faster. 🤣😅
I am sure you don't live in Germany.
@@peixinho1973 Well I am sure you are not living in Germany. 😅
@@AH-fm7rj I am German living in Germany
@@peixinho1973Me too
Also findest du, dass Deutschland sich mit Lichtgeschwindigkeit fortbewegt? Ich finde eher das Gegenteil. Bin beruflich unterwegs, aktuell in Asien. Die sind fast in jedem Bereich weiter als wir. Europa ist alt. Alte Strukturen. Mobilfunknetz in Deutschland? Digitalisierung in Deutschland? Hier kann man fast alles digital machen.…
The US needs to pull out of NATO. Europe subsidizes failing ventures and social programs because the US subsidizes their defense, and then it’s ridiculed by Europe for not providing US citizens with free education, health etc.
Yes, the EU has been a parasite for many years, constantly telling others what to do and how to act yet not facing up to it's own responsibilities, thankfully the UK is no longer a part of the corrupt cartel
I dont have problem with that. (USA leaving NATO) But dont get scared if germany build its military to old strength. We are good now.
@@ich3744 I’d be thrilled to see a strong Germany. No need to be scared. We went down this road twice before.
@@lanegranoquiere thats good to hear. I think most of the world doesnt want that germany have a big military again. I can understand you. Your gouvermant spend 800 billions every year for the military. Money what you need for your citizens. Dont get me wrong. I am thankfull that you protect us in the cold war time. But its time that we protect ourselfs. And countrys like UK, France and Germany can managed that.
@geranienbaum I belive in the current state not even three days. It getting worse and worse. I hope if the government change they do it better. Our current government is dumb as bread.
Eu was able to print Euros to subsidize petrol costs to farmers because Russia was paid in euros also, now they pay Yanks for petrol in dollars, meaning there is less room to maneuver, now they have to really work to earn dollars instead of just printing. Welcome to the new world 🤭
AFD only chance for Germany.
Sure blame the “far right” 😂
Always money for the little green man in Ukraine
Ask the WEF for an answer.Less democracy more WEF no doubt.
I salute the French. German as well as other farmers, I understand their problems. I am from Slovakia. Farmers in the former Czechoslovakia did not have and did not know such problems. There was socialism and the goals were food self-sufficiency and work for people in the countryside. With the fall of socialism, the conveniences of farmers disappeared. With the entry of Slovakia into the European Union, production fell by 20-40% according to commodities. Livestock production was terminated in many enterprises. Who will stop the dictates of officials from Brussels? Who is manipulating millions of people in Europe and the whole world?
You know, I just don't understand why 27 Countries would give up their identifies to be part of a Union that is ran by one group of people. People that have no idea that each one of the Countries have different needs, and thinks all of those countries can be ran under one set of laws. I guess since I'm an American I'm not supposed to understand. However I do know one thing. I stand with the farmers.
i heard there is a trailer fee
Listen to the speech nobody wants to hear by Ronald Reagan he tell s of this happening way back in the 80s listen to the whole speech??
Nay world never talk Deatchland .. & never mind .IT SAID I AM THE SON
OF MINER.
Stay strong.
It’s like carrots and pears
I stand with farmers 100% without a doubt but i don't like what this AFD party is trying to do. They are simply gain political movement by latching on to Farmer's protest. I would really like to keep these political parties out of this farmer protest just like Indian farmers did during "FARMERS PROTEST" in India. Remember "NO FARMER NO FOOD".
😊❤❤❤
Is that "far right farmers" ?🤯
Far right? LOL! We see through your virtue signaling.
3:40 in fact, ukraine is amongst the #3 top levels when it comes to corruption, making to very democratic.
Today in France.....
I fear it will be in America too.🙏
Coming to every wef infiltrated country
Deutschland erwachen.... keep it up..
JESUS IS COMING VERY VERY SOON. BE PREPARED BY FASTING AND PRAYER. JD 0:29
And giving the village a rub down
He was an Mosad agent.
ASK Z FOR THE MONEY, 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣!!!!!
Take money from ukraine war,
Always the "far right" buzzword.... It´s not far right to have common sense, it´s just the opposite of far left.
As a German, I don't know whether I should be in favor of it or against it. I want to be neutral.
surrendered to tyranny
@@clintonreisig Oke.
How weak.
Should you not always stand with the farmers, otherwise who will the population rely on for their food... the EU, U.N./WEF? As an American I know that my gov't does far more harm than good.
@@TonyRule Yes, how weak you are is crazy.
we have let you exist after the world war you decided not to show any games its a lazy thing to do think about that
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Its because of Brexit 🤣😅🤣
Hitler would have never allowed this to happen.
The government should take money from farmers and hard-working people and send that money to Ukraine and give to the Middle East immigrants to support their children!!
I'm not so sure that any farmers should receive government subsidies... It would seem not to create a fair marketplace - nationally or internationally.
But why is the German economy in so much trouble? That's the issue. Regardless, Ukraine MUST be supported or else Russia will push further west...
Slava Ukraini! 💪💪
M 🦘🏏😎
Fair enough. But then the farmers dictate the price of there products instead of having it dictated to them. Do you really not understand what this is about !! And playing the environmental crap is plane dumb ass. Especially when they are dropping bombs on each other
Screw the international marketplace. The CCP subsidised manufacturing to collapse western industry. No more free trade with countries that aren't on the same economic level.
