6 members of IFA are currently inside Bord Bia and have been there for 5 days. They are currently being denied food, water and basic necessities. This is crude measure by Bord Bia against the farmers that fund their and support their work.

Really valuable and honest discussions today with 🇮🇪 farmers, agricultural representatives, and MPs @OireachtasNews These on-the-ground realities must be reflected in the next EU budget. The future CAP is up to the challenge: delivering opportunity and real support.

On our final stop before the port of Rosslare, Tom and I met with farmers from across the southeast at Enniscorthy Mart. We set sail for Dunkirk tonight as we prepare to join this Thursday’s Europe-wide farmer protest, organised by the European farm umbrella body, @COPACOGECA

A good crowd of over fifty people at the Ferns and Camolin IFA branches joint agm. Many more have reported they have already completed their postal ballot. With deputy presidential candidate Alice Doyle a member of the Camolin branch, the good turnout is no surprise.

Great day in #Waterford with my friend, Minister @MaryButlerTD & the @fiannafailparty council team. Brilliant to visit @LegacyCider located outside Dungarvan. We then met with @IFAmedia tillage members. Finally, we were shown around the @CmcHygea facility in the City. – at Waterford, Ireland
