I don’t agree with their assessment but crucially they had been led to believe (lied to) that CAP is bad for them.
At least when we understand the basis for their beliefs then the lies can be challenged rather than attacking the people themselves.
There is a difference between gammony cunt and someone who has been lied to.

A digression, but can't they literally see in their own accounts where their money comes from? I feel it should be relatively difficult for a govt to lie to you in the face of your own P&L.
edit: or is CAP adjustment hidden away by inflating the prices of the goods produced somehow?
Where "detrimental" means "receive more in EU subsidies than they make from actual farming".
Take away the subsidies, and you're left with an entire nation's agricultural business being bought up by a few giant agribusinesses.
Enjoy your indentured servitude, farmer Giles.
