Somehow, foreign farmers can produce products with a lower carbon footprint than those in Great Britain.
Sir Keir Starmer’s official spokesman has sensationally broken silence to defend revelations that the Government is spending millions on foreign farmers while taxing domestic producers to the hilt.
This morning the Daily Express revealed that over £500 million of foreign aid is currently being spent by the Government on projects across the world to help farmers.
One project worth £24 million launched just last month by the Government is focussing on improving food security in Kenya and other countries.
It’s kind of rich that Labour PM Kier Starmer would seek to slap additional taxes on British farmers while paying farmers overseas to produce food and then lie about the impact of the new tax rates. His doing so is reminiscent of Joe Biden’s playbook of doling out money to illegal immigrants that sparked inflation in the U.S. while falsely claiming the border is secure.
Not only does Starmer defend the practice, but paying foreign farmers is a policy that the British government has engaged in for decades. Oh but wait, those uneducated foreigners are too stupid and must be taught the West’s grand plan that their carbon footprint (especially when it comes to food production) has to be sustainable or something. That kind of policy worked out real well in Sri Lanka didn’t it? Another way to justify the soft bigotry of low expectations if not outright money laundering.
