Ah, the #EuropeanParliamentElection knocks at the door! Let’s see who is #campaigning for what…In #Italy, a #rightwingcoalition calls for a #guaranteedincome, #largerpensions, and resistance to the heavy-handed #austerityprograms enforced by the #EuropeanUnion.
In #France, some #rightwinggroups champion #fight against #climatechange, decry #exploitation of #foreignworkers, growing #economicinequality. What about the #centerright and #centerleft parties? #Polls show they will lose their #majority, and the Euroskeptics bag 30+% of seats.
However, #Euroskeptic, like #populist, is a term that obscures more than it reveals. #Spain’s leftist #Podemos isn’t likely to break bread with #Italy’s rightist #NorthernLeague-#M5S, but both are considered #Euroskeptic. Some are really #wolves but wear #sheepskins.

We have #nlpony's, chicken's, a cat, and a dog on our little farm here in the middle of Eastport. We've been establishing fencing to keep our animals contained but also to keep people from walking around our personal home & animals or driving atv's / ski-doo's through our fields.
It has been a struggle, to say the least. We've had fencing pulled down, animals harassed, been trespassed on by people from neighbouring businesses. There has been almost no co-operation from either town council or local residents in dealing with the ongoing situation.
As someone who did not grow up here, its challenging. I moved back from the mainland 15yrs ago to pursue a life, and build a business in rural NL. Its understandable some people will be unable to cope with change, but that's their issue not mine.
