The Taoiseach has told farmers that climate change is the biggest threat facing Ireland today and it is not clear what type of agriculture we will have in 20, 30 or 40 years time.

Speaking at the AGM of the Irish Creamery Milk Suppliers Association (ICMSA), Leo Varadkar said the climate is getting warmer and drier, and in order to rise to the climate challenge, openness to significant change will be needed.

He said farming income can be protected with other things like forestry and carbon farming.

He said the agri-sector will not be asked to take a disproportionate part of climate mitigation.

Leo Varadkar said there is a lot of climate shaming of farmers, and that only gets peoples backs up.

He said he wants climate shaming to stop.

The Taoiseach said attention will shift from farming to other sectors, like transport, if it succeeds in reducing emissions by a few percent every year, as happened last year across the sector. …

Don’t know yet. But it looks like possibly half the potato crop could be destroyed.

The Catholic Church as a consequence of the homosexual scandals involving the clergy has lost its moral credibility and influence in Ireland. Ireland has devolved into neo pagan decadence. It is being overrun and adapting readily to the migrants. Soon there will be more practicing Muslims in Ireland than Catholics.

The Taoiseach: globalist stooge.

The POS stooge has already come out and demanded a ceasefire in Gaza for his Hamas buddies - even after the killings of Irish citizens.

The yellow stripe down his Paddy back is wide and deep.

The taoiseach is another Dancing Boy of Islam - just like Poop Frankie, the heretic pope.

Glad my ancestors split from there 300 years ago. Must have sucked in long strokes even then.

I’m Irish and I love Ireland and the people but when you spend time with them they’re totally socialist.
