This week we were very much involved in a “fake news” issue linking us to the farmers protests against the government’s pollution plans..
We participated in an event called “Ommen 75 Jaar Vrijheid” from 1 till 3 July.
We wanted to unload the trailer with the Firefly on Monday the 4th but couldn’t because the farmers were blocking a retail distribution centre which is very nearby to our building.
Tuesday it was a bit more calmer so we decided to unload but the unloading wa…s filmed by some people that were hanging around the protests . From then on all kind of stories popped up about “farmers unloading a tank to participate in the protests” etc, etc.
Although we are very committed to sustainability initiatives, and we are backing up the farmers in this unfair fight against unfounded government decisions, we are in no way involved in these farmer protests.
