And, Bill, I have nothing against Andrew Stephens, DVm, either.

But you vets need to understand something, major. We want to look up to you...and you let us down...and charge our credit cards or checkbooks outrageously. Frankly, for me...it isn't worth the hassle.

I'll get rid of the animals.

Gotta keep myself fed first.

P.S. This is called priority....nothing personal. But the vet community hasn't exactly been very acceptable in its performances with regards to the likes of one Vikke Cleghorn.....nor has the present "Police State" in England for good people trying to protect what they've worked for.

Personally, for me...I would never consider England as a place to live. Author wrote:

Dear Bill: I certainly appreciate your reply...but you've said yourself that things just didn't seem to add up. Science was tossed. Good sense was thrown away. We knew vaccination was being used in foreign countries....successfully, unaware that the "rules" would be "bent" by Brussels within months of second applications of vaccines....so as to re-initiate imports of beef and pork from South America. Now the British livestock producer is literally becoming a dinosaur...and the government (Labour) admits they don't even know how it all occurred.
If you believe that....especially , after the last two weeks we 've learned there were as many as 160 Australian vets and support lab people, playing their games...then you need to go to the pub and get royally drunk. I would be glad to help you bend your elbow.
Last year, we all didn't know very much about FMD...but, little by little, with contibutions from everyone, just like yourself...we began learning. And darn it, the Truth does hurt.
Jane and Sue were two that got this whole deal started......it's called "awareness." They are both True Blue Troopers.
It's only taken 18 months for you to come out and tell us all about the antibodies and tests. Well, Sir, I don't know you..and have absolutely nothing against you......but your Government (Labour) was offerred test equipment to use by my government that can damn near test anything. Your government refused to use it. In all your Labour government's wisdom, they refused to use the most modern technology available.....and continued to harass and destroy a whole population of livestock for what reason?
One thing.....change the complex of living in Rural England.
I don't think they wanted to ever stop it.
But...on Sept. 28th last year, it was suddenly "over."
Oh, yeah, a virus just "Stops"
The True story hasn't surfaced yet.
BUT....
Mr. Blair and his henchman got part of the job done.
They got interrupted when the EU said it wouldn't pay anymore.
So don't give me this crap about "antibodies" and all the science. There was no science ever used in your outbreak.
The science was available and was also forewarned by your own "experts" at Pirbright, England. Your government never used a damn tool in their toolbox. And that's a FACT.

Dear Burkie,
You could be right but I have given this a lot of thought and there is
another explanation. Ignorance, just plain stupid, dumb, ignorance.
These people are arrogant bureaucrats who have become so immersed in their
own bullshit they have totally lost touch with reality. They go to endless
meetings, seminars, conferences, anything at all but do the job they are
supposed to do.
I may be wrong but I don't think they have got the intelligence to organise a
conspiracy.
Have a nice day,
Bill.
