10th February, 2024: World Pulses Day.
It’s official: it’s Saturday.
And?
The radio’s on!
Or, at least: it was, when I woke up, today.
Radio 4’s Farming Today had an article about potential farmers protests in the UK.
Then … ?
Barely half an hour or so later?
The Radio 4 news bulletin told me about a slow protest by farmers: held in Dover.
I don’t know if anyone passed their plans on, to Farming Today!
Mind you: their article was about farmers in Cardiff.

At any rate … ?
The farmers blockading Dover are protesting against cheap European imports.
Which is fair enough.
I can understand those protests: no-one like to lose money if these continue.
On the other hand … ?
If you’re in my shoes? In most people’s shoes, now I think of it?
Cheap food has a LOT of appeal … !
