German truckers join forces with farmers in protest

“Rocked by two weeks of farmers’ demonstrations against cuts in diesel subsidies, Germany now faces hundreds of disaffected hauliers protesting, as they assembled in Berlin Friday morning to oppose plans for raising road tolls and carbon taxes on their industry. 

Approximately 1,500 trucks paraded along the A13 road towards Berlin in a two-kilometre long convoy before paralysing the city centre on Friday afternoon. Truckers are getting organised against recent government tax hikes and foreign, predominantly Eastern European, drivers undermining wage rates. “

Demonstrations led by the truck drivers lasted into Friday evening.

With their sector under threat, truckers had already joined the farmers’ protests of previous weeks. To date, attempts to reach a compromise between the ruling traffic light coalition and farming groups have fallen through, as the government clings to its Net Zero commitment. Despite signals that the traffic light coalition would acquiesce to some farmer demands, the German Bundestag’s Budgetary Committee this week locked in many of the proposed green austerity measures leading to speculation that the protests could rumble on.

“When it comes to costs, the industry has reached its limits,” truckers’ representative Daniel Constant declared in a German radio interview. Hauliers hope that Friday’s rally could put pressure on the government in Berlin.

Speakingahead of the rally, freight company owner Marc Kampmann blamed a new CO2 surcharge and a recent spike in toll prices for the unease felt by truckers, adding that the entire business model of the sector was threatened increasingly by the policies of Germany’s green-left rulers.”

Well now, the Germans are upset that the apple cart is being tipped by the leftist Green scum. Their subsidies are being denied and their costs are going through the roof.  But still, they are not seeing or facing the real danger. The days of honking horns and waving banners are over. This is a fight for western civilization itself and to lose is to die. The de-populationist Green communists are going to make the old school communists look like a joke. In the 20th century over 200 million murders were perpetrated by the political progeny of Lenin and his ilk. But these new green scum have about 2 billion useless eaters to dispose of. Throw manure and blow your horns all you want, but until you are willing to drive through your leaders mansions and state buildings and actually get the bastards under your wheels, nothing is going to get accomplished.  Germany is done and all we do now is watch the death throes

  2. Meh. When they pull their K98 Mausers out from under the floorboards and begin to: “…set things right” I will applaud them.
