'Fancy, stupid words' from Government mean cuts to farm incomes - Healy-Rae 

An Independent TD says 'fancy' words around the issue of carbon emissions in Ireland will still mean cuts to farming incomes.
Kerry Deputy Michael Healy-Rae was speaking ahead of agreement of the Government's Climate Action Plan, which will see the national herd reduced.
He says Ireland's national herd has actually fallen since 1973, and farmers have improved farm practices "dramatically".
And he told The Pat Kenny Show farmers will see their ability to make a living severely affected .
"They see their incomes under attack.
"If you take a person like yourself... the way you live your life will be looking to be changed.
"In other words the type of house you live in, the type of car a person drives, the way they go to work - all that sort of stuff.
"But what farmers are looking at is their incomes being severely, adversely affected.
"The one touchy subject that the Government don't want to admit to is that what they're looking at is a decrease in the national herd.
"They're using this fancy, stupid word 'stabilising' the national herd - that's like a person from the HSE coming on and talking about reconfiguration of the health service.
"That means cuts".
