“I want to say something about the farmers, although I already know that they do not like to read that,” the singer begins his message. Jolink understands that the farmers are concerned, but warns them not to “make new enemies.” The singer speaks strongly about the protest in front of the house of nitrogen minister Christianne van der Wal.
According to Jolink, farmers should also not be incited by action group Farmers Defense Force. According to him, there is simply a nitrogen crisis that requires “draconian measures”. Jolink puts the blame for this on the government, which, according to him, has conducted the wrong policy in recent years. “But we still have and continue to have a major nitrogen problem, which must be borne by all of us.”
