An increase in the basic protein unit is being managed.

I’ve always compared left-wing parties to those kids who, when they’re ignored, throw themselves on the floor and start rolling around as if they were a croquette being breaded, You see this, for example, at a supermarket when a child wants some candy, some candy, some candy—but no—and since they won’t give it to him, he gets upset, throws himself on the floor, and starts screaming, and so on and so forth. Well, the same thing happens to the left here—at least in Spain—exactly the same way.

Since they’ve already lost the banner of labor rights—because deep down they’re nothing more than bourgeois brats with their little businesses—they listen to Pablo Iglesias. Since they’ve lost that whole message, they’re looking for new messages to make themselves feel somewhat important, to feel that society pays them a little attention—because nobody’s paying any attention to me. Let’s kick up a fuss so they’ll pay attention to us.

Here’s the news story we’re going to discuss; it appeared in the free-market business press: “Brussels yields to animal rights pressure and prepares another blow to chicken and egg farms.” The price of eggs will practically double in the coming months—actually, it’ll be a bit more than double—and you’ll say, “Well, the cost of raw materials has gone up,” and so on and so forth. No—the rise in the price of eggs, and chicken as well (though that comes later), is directly related to the animal rights activists’ latest little whim.

And animal rights activists are nothing but riffraff—in most cases, leftists who have adopted a cause that’s completely at odds with common sense. But common sense and a leftist are like oil and water—that is, they don’t mix. You won’t find—or will find it very difficult to find—any coherent message coming from a leftist.

I’m going to explain what they want to do, what new “scam” they’re pulling on us, and then you can judge for yourselves—if you think it’s okay, well, go ahead with the empty promises. I disagree because these measures they want to impose on all of us—and I guarantee you right here and now, on July 18, 2026—are going to cause a great deal of suffering, and not just economic suffering; we’re going to have many more cases of food poisoning because of the whims of these bourgeois leftist “caviar left” or “ghost divine” brats, as they say in France.

Let me put it very clearly: you can see this in every veterinary school in the world—every single one—there’s a saint—I can’t remember which one, I think it’s Francis of Assisi or another—and around the saint there’s an inscription that reads, “pecoris salus populi.” The purpose of a veterinarian is hygiene—the health of animals—to ensure optimal human health. This seems so simple, yet many people just don’t get it. And what I’m about to tell you hurts even more because of this training—it goes against nature. Look at these scoundrels—they’ve sold this image because, after all, it’s very easy to sell; I understand that. Nobody likes to see a chicken in a cage—nobody—because your subconscious immediately associates the fact that the chicken is in a cage with it being a prisoner, suffering, “poor little animal,” and so on and so forth. I have to tell you that animals—in this case, chickens, which still have a 100% reptilian brain—don’t have this feeling. Logically, they don’t. Why are chickens kept in cages?

The problem is that when a hen lays an egg, the eggshell is porous and gets dirty right away. The hen herself poops on the eggs because—to put it simply, so everyone can understand me and grasp what I’m trying to say much better—since the shell is porous and the hen’s feces land on it, if the hen is sick, the disease passes through the shell and contaminates the egg, which is why we end up with problems like E. coli, salmonella, and so on.

These days, in the battery cages—that’s what they’re called—which are long aisles lined with cages where you say, “They’re suffering a lot today.” I, too, wish they weren’t there. But the fact is, we need to produce eggs this way: when a hen lays an egg in a cage, it doesn’t just fall anywhere—it falls onto a conveyor belt that’s coated with an antiseptic, an antiseptic that’s also safe for human consumption, so that egg is 100% sterile, always clean, it doesn’t get dirty because, by law, it’s prohibited to wash the egg; when you wash it, if there’s even a tiny bit of anything on it, all you do is spread it around and make it easier for surface bacteria to penetrate the inside of the egg.

And that’s why the hens are kept this way. Now they definitely want to ban cage raising, and to promote that, they mention these organic farms where the hens roam freely—yes, I think that’s great, I think that’s great. It’s very idyllic; I get it, everyone likes it—but go ahead and buy an egg from one of those farms. It costs twice as much as a regular one.

But I’ll say it again to you, this “caviar left”: you couldn’t care less whether it’s your pocketbook or mine, because they’re rolling in money—they’re filthy rich—whether they steal it or it runs in the family. Just as the European Union is run by the PP, let’s ban these cages—first, because the cost of collecting the eggs goes up, and second, because there’s also a health risk on an open farm like this.
