Acerca do activismo agrícola

Sou um defensor da manutenção de Portugal na UE. Ao mesmo tempo, sou muito crítico do activismo agrícola da UE. Por isso, olho para isto, "Brexit and agriculture: British farmers to plough new course" e penso nas oportunidades que se podem criar dando azo à liberdade.

BTW, algum dos defensores da saída da UE alguma vez falou sobre o que fariam com o fim dos subsídios?

BTW, interessantes os exemplos de quem resolveu fugir da race-to-the-bottom.
"The farm was a family dairy outfit with 350 cows in the 1980s when the government decided to cut support and introduce milk production quotas. Now it is a combined ice-cream factory and theme park, which turns over £6m a year. The few remaining cows are a small part of the tourist attraction.
...
As a dairy farm, it employed a grand total of three people: in its new guise, that number has risen to 292 at its peak."
