| Message | Mr. Speaker, This is a disgrace, taking away the souths right is not acceptable! We have a strong individualist agricultural tradition. Family farms that get passed on from generation to generation and in one reform you aim at destroying that tradition and right! This is the typical behaviour exercised by the urbanized population of the north. Throwing rules at the southern lands that destroy our agricultural past. The time of the workers is over. We need to return to our traditional values of an agricultural society and underline the fact that this nation was build on the hands of the rural population! Benjamin Hauke, Secretary General of the HVV |
