The Irish government has budged under pressure from the protesting farmers and announced yesterday that it will reduce excise duties by 10c per litre on diesel and petrol.
There will also be a delay in planned carbon tax hikes.
Irish farmers, truck drivers, agricultural contractors, taxi and bus operators launched nationwide fuel protests on April 7th, blocking fuel depots, ports and Ireland’s only oil refinery with their tractors and other vehicles.
The core issue is soaring diesel and petrol prices, which have jumped sharply due to the crisis in the Hormuz Strait.
Protesters argue these costs, combined with Ireland’s carbon tax on fuels including “green diesel” used in agriculture, make operations unsustainable.
Farmers highlight that running tractors, machinery, and transport for fertiliser, crops, and livestock has become prohibitively expensive due to the climate taxes.
“No farmers, no food” is one of the main slogans used by the protesters.

HOLY CRAP! Trump's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is costing Iran $400 MILLION PER DAY, per Fox
"$13 billion a MONTH! Plus, the Iranians can only store oil for about two weeks before they have to start SHUTTING OFF wells.
The Iranians can't outlast us. The world's turning to US for energy. Over 120 empty oil tankers are on their way to the Gulf of America."

VP JD Vance, a self-identified Catholic, said that the Vatican should “stick to matters of morality” and stay out of American political affairs.
“Stick to matters of, you know, what’s going on in the Catholic Church. Let the President of the United States stick to dictating American public policy.”
“When they are in conflict, they are in conflict. I don’t worry about it too much,” Vance added.

American moved into a home in Ventura County, California
In her lease was an acknowledged she was moving next to the Santa Susana Field Laboratory
Just 1 year after moving in, her daughter gets aggressive cancer. Over 100 other people in the neighborhood have cancer too
She thought it was strange at the time to have to sign that acknowledgment, the Real Estate agent said it was no big deal, now she realizes it was a huge deal
“A year after we moved in, my daughter was diagnosed with an incredibly rare and aggressive form of cancer, and it turns out she's one of a hundred children in our community who've had cancer.”
“They know about the Santa Susana Field Laboratory, and they're still building homes next to it. It's just about money — I do know that it's hurting our community and none of our kids deserve to get cancer. Boeing should do the complete cleanup. That's the bottom line.”
I looked more into this, within roughly 10–15 miles of the Santa Susana Field Laboratory, the 100 people referenced are getting many rare types like certain leukemias, brain cancers, retinoblastoma, and thyroid cancers
The groups worried about this argue these rates far exceed national averages and show a troubling pattern tied to proximity to the site
