Jiglu: Farmtalking: Discussion: RE: RSPCA Welcomes First Global Agreement On Animal Welfare

Originally from: Pat Gardiner

You are on Hilary! Mrs P will be in touch later.

We have been trying to deregister our former smallholding for the last six months...no commercial activity, no animals, no sales, but the control freaks at the State Veterinary Service just don't want to let us go.

Clearly like crawling about in our hedges looking for alleged infringements that carry a potential criminal charge.

Silly Billies! We now have absolutely no reason not to go after them hard.

Anyway, we will be travelling the country speaking up for those that are still vulnerable to harassment and frame-ups, collecting a few more deep throats (people will talk if you are known to be discrete) and generally forcing the pace of reform.

Some of the inside stories would turn your hair white. Most can't be told for fear of identifying the source.

Mrs P, now she has no straw in her hair, will be trying to put together a sensible itinerary.

My main concern is to get the senior people in the SVS replaced with someone half sensible, before we have another animal health disaster on our hands.

So, let's be having you!

Bookings now being taken.

Regards
Pat Gardiner

Good for you Pat.
I can offer you a bed, parking space, meal in Gloucestershire any time. I have just stopped travelling and started to suffer the regulations at first hand.
Do drop in.
All the best,
Hilary

I have no problem with that.
I believe in free speech even from the despised, publicity seeking, money
grabbing and cowardly RSPCA, although I would be happier if the
smartgroups page did not display an "advert" soliciting donations for
them(it changes all the time you may not see it!)
Could someone complain to smartgroups? You can be judged by the company
you keep and I would hate to think that any written contribution I make to
this group might be taken to imply any respect or support for the RSPCA.
Anyway, the following was published today. I do not expect an invitation
from either the RCVS or the RSPCA. I imagine that I will be talking about
the "Freedom Foods" fund raising initiative (did I say scam?), the failure
to prosecute obvious cruelty...the usual stuff.
Quote
The writer is increasing his efforts to force real reform of Britain's
disastrous animal health services and will now begin travelling the UK and
elsewhere seeking support and co-operation from others working in the
field.
The loss of our livestock, the return of good health and a reorganisation
at home mean that we can travel again after years spent "on duty."
Self-sufficiency is a barometer of true freedom. If officialdom stops
citizens growing food and raising livestock to feed themselves, the
officials responsible have to be named, shamed and fired.
Politicians, of all parties, have to be made to take proper democratic
control and not allow unelected self regulated substandard "professionals"
to harass the innocent in order to pander to unacceptable industrial scale
commercial operations.
He will be happy to speak on this subject to organised groups or indeed
will happily give talks restricted to the pleasanter and less
controversial aspects of self-sufficiency.
No fee or expenses will be sought from any bona fide smallholder,
agriculture, veterinary or gardening group.

Dare I say Tally Ho! I will talk almost anywhere anytime.
They are not going to get away with what they did during CSF and FMD. It
will dawn on them in the end. Already, some are now breaking ranks.
If I can help – email me. I'm actually quite house trained.
