Thousands of farmers have protested in the Polish capital Warsaw against what they say is unfair competition from Ukraine. They say cheap Ukrainian imports of staple foods including sugar, grain and eggs are threatening their livelihoods. They're also unhappy with the European Union's environmental standards and regulations.

John, Pieter, thanks for posting! Polish farmers want to be heard, just like farmers across Europe. Polish mass media do not know exactly how to comment on these news, since they do not want to be critical towards the new government. On the other hand, they have to address the issues. Brussel and EU need to see people under the rules and regulation and the ecological protection.
