Slurry at the cheap supermarkets


It was in Sunday's Depeche that the JA 82 - the Jeunes agriculteurs had targeted shops in Montauban, Caussade and Negrepelisse. In particular, Lidl, Netto, Mutant and Super U. 
Between 5:30 and 7:30 am on Sunday morning 80 agricultural workers and 15 tractors dumped all sorts of rubbish at the entrances to these shops. 
It seems to be about fair returns for their work. Meat seems to be at the heart of it so I assume these shops buy in cheap meat from outside of the local area.

Val says I can hear at least a couple of our local farmers laughing about this and saying "quite right too"
