Anger at Labour party policies…tick.
It all sounds a bit like Jeremy Clarkson’s ultimate TV show.
Well, it became reality as Westminster was transformed into an engine revving, horn blaring, light flashing extravaganza on Wednesday.
The second protest in as many months over Keir Starmer’s damaging inheritance tax plans saw some 300 tractor-driving farmers conga their way around the streets of Whitehall for hours on end.
If Sir Keir had a headache after last month’s 10,000-strong demonstration - including Mr Clarkson himself, he will have a migraine after this latest episode.
Barbie Girl, The final Countdown and the banana splits theme (The Tra La La Song) were among a bizarre mixture of tunes boomed out by tractor horn throughout the day.

This was Top Gear meets Countryfile meets a Spotify playlist gone wrong.
But there was a serious message to all of this, hundreds of distraught and fed up farmers protesting against the government’s “farm killing” tax hike.
Intrepid Daily Express reporter Katie Harris, who managed to hitch a ride on a tractor for a few laps around Parliament Square, spoke to many who had driven for hours to be there.
One emotional farmer, who runs a farm that has been in his family for almost 500 years, said he could lose the lot because of the cruel policy.
While all this was going on, it was business as usual in Westminster.
Just yards away inside the House of Commons, Kemi Badenoch gave Keir Starmer plenty of welly over his failure to crack down on immigration.
She repeatedly hammered Sir Keir during Prime Minister’s Questions for rising numbers of small boat crossings and a ballooning asylum bill.
The Tory leader also said the PM had “consistently backed criminals” and insisted he apologise for signing a letter four years ago which called for a migration deportation flight to be halted.

Squirming Starmer, who looked like he would prefer to take on the Barbour and tweed brigade outside, was forced to use his five years of service as director of public prosecutions as his defence.
It all added up to another humiliating day for the government.
Roll on the next one.
