Doggerfundt Riots



The Doggerfundt Riots were a series of demonstrations from 1978-1979, protesting the government’s new tariffs. Many farmers were strongly against the tariffs, as these farmers exported many of their goods. Farmers from around Doggerland travelled to Doggerfundt to join in the protests, and it is estimated that one protest known as the "Farmer's March on Doggerfundt" in 1979 had over 28,000 demonstrators.
