I seriously doubt it was a peaceful non-violent placards-only protest.
Remember the farmers whacking sportive riders with sticks here a few months back? “No no m’lud, we were pointing those sticks at the ground!”
According to reddit (I know...), the farmers were attempting to set the bales alight when the police arrived. If that's true it makes the use of force seem a little more reasonable.
