Jiglu: Farmtalking: Discussion: Re: DEFRA''s Scrapie Plan

Originally from: Joyce

I quite agree Lina with both your points. This is another 'exercise' in cutting down the UK's sheep numbers and keeping much of the UK produced sheep meat out of circulation using a completely spurious excuse.
Some of us do know, including vets who are going to be paid to implement this scheme, what a load of scientific codswallop it is.
However the Food Scaremongering Agency has to be seen to be 'earning' its keep and some vets would do anything for cash.
Jane, I am sorry but I think you are too trusting and not suspicious enough of all the ulterior motives that abound.
