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.	Nigel Cannings	14 January 2007 04:49
RE: RSPCA Welcomes First Global Agreement On Animal Welfare Originally from: Pat Gardiner 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!

Re: RSPCA Welcomes First Global Agreement On Animal Welfare Originally from: Hilary Peters Good for you Pat. I can offer you a bed, parking space, meal in Gloucestershire any time.

RE: The Draft Animal Health and Welfare (Scotland) Bill consultation Originally from: Farmtalking Thanks for this Mona! I wonder how many members of this board have taken a look at this Consultation Document and will respond? It is well set out with a list of Questions the Executive want us to answer.

RE: RSPCA Welcomes First Global Agreement On Animal Welfare Originally from: Farmtalking I can sympathise with both Pat and Coleen's opinion of the R.S.P.C.A. There is no doubt that much of the criticism levelled at the Society by many is justified. However, they are the nationally recognized Animal Welfare Society and whatever we think of their policies there are many good men and women who work for them and do not forget that their aim is the 'PREVENTION' of cruelty to animals.

RE: RSPCA Welcomes First Global Agreement On Animal Welfare Originally from: Pat Gardiner Quite right. They have long lost touch with the reason for their existence. Too many big salaries at the top. Too keen on publicity. They are junkies for TV. Show them the chance of a TV camera and they are off.	Nigel Cannings	14 January 2007 04:49
Re: RSPCA Welcomes First Global Agreement On Animal Welfare Originally from: coleen I wonder what the RSPCA class as (acceptable methods of slaughter)? Bashing brains out on rocks, chasing and taking pot shots at sheep in a field with guns, likewise with cattle. Are they deemed acceptable? I just cannot view this organisation with any credibility.

Environmental Enrichment for Livestock Originally from: Mike Environmental Enrichment (EE) has become a "buzz"-phrase in animal welfare and an EU legislation "cause celebre". Unfortunately all that controversy has obscured the rather ancient history of EE, which used to be regarded as a basic "stockmanship" (now stockperson) skill.	Nigel Cannings	14 January 2007 04:48
RE: DEfra & its Interim Report......... Originally from: frances fish Shame if they had to slaughter the whole of the National Flock, then ? What a waste of money that would be. Mind you, isn't that what Defra does best ? Ignores important issues like the lack of abattoirs in a great many areas and the subsequent stress of many animals going for slaughter having to travel very long distances first. What about animal welfare then ? If It suits them, its ignored.	Nigel Cannings	14 January 2007 04:39

RE:How BSE information is devastating the meat industry Originally from: frances fish A good point Brent. If they do not know the cause of BSE how can they give advice as to how to prevent it ? They can't,of course. The same augument is entirely valid for Scrapie eradication in the National Sheep Flock. If you look at the figures, there are certain hot-spots which stand out like sore thumbs. Shetland is one of these. Why are the figures so high on Shetland ?	Nigel Cannings	14 January 2007 04:35
