I can't pretend to understand all the intricacies of cattle passports but one of the reasons (not the main one) we came out of breeding pedigree sheep was the increasing amount of blethering nonesense coming out of Brussels and Defra. Life's too short – there are so many other things to do, but for my money we need people like Mr Purdey who will not just turn belly up and who are not afraid to take on the Goliaths. Good luck to you sir! Colin Ardron

Subject : Re: [farmtalking] British cattle movement bureaucra fiasco condemns healthy c... Hi,

Why should challenging a bureaucratic injustice damage my credibility ? We seem to be talking at cross purposes here. You are assuming that I had not posted my cattle passport applications in reasonable time to meet the legal deadlines, whilst I am proclaiming that I did put the applications in the post several days before the 27 day deadline of the animal in question.

If BCMS do not play it fair, then I will issue a summons against them by the end of the week with a five pound-a-day fine for every day that they continue to refuse to issue a license. I will also expose the social-ecological scandal of government legislation removing healthy food from the food chain. This counter productive policy of incinerating healthy cattle has happened one too many times in recent years. It has become a sick habit of western governments

Had I been in the wrong here, then a mere fine is a much more appropriate means of bollocking those who do actually commit the crime of late applications. Why deprive the global foodchain of healthy food ?? Its an insanity.

Best,

mark.
