"Farmers are planning fuel protests in England after the Iran war sent fuel prices soaring to 2 per litre, it has been reported. Ireland has already faced nationwide fuel protests from farming organisations this week over soaring petrol and diesel prices, which have caused significant disruption and threats to critical supplies throughout the country."
"We've hit the 2 mark on a litre of diesel. That's a scary place to be. It will be a matter of time before people in this country start to go out and protest. Farmers are the last people who want to go out and protest."
"You have to remember this is a very busy time of the year for us. But with the inheritance tax protests, you've got the groups that have been set up. The infrastructure is there to mobilise."
Farmers in England are preparing for fuel protests as diesel prices have surged to £2 per litre, influenced by the Iran war. Ireland has already experienced nationwide protests over similar issues. UK farming organizations are set to meet to discuss potential demonstrations. A source indicated that the current price level is alarming, and protests may soon occur despite the busy farming season. The existing infrastructure from previous protests could facilitate mobilization among farmers.
