Discussion message An angry, sad, emotional book - FMD in Devon

Originally from: Farmtalking LAUNCHED on August 18th AT CHAGFORD SHOW 'SILENCE AT RAMSCLIFFE' The horror of food and mouth disease in the Spring of 2001 has scarcely faded in the minds of any of the farmers and workers whom it affected – but how long does it take for 'government', politicians and 'the public' to forget what happens if vigilance of disease observation and control is allowed to become negligent?

Discussion message Prof. Brown - Daily Telegraph Obituary

Originally from: Farmtalking Alistair McConnachie has kindly sent me the following, the obituary for Prof Fred Brown, published in the Daily Telegraph on March 10th. I've copied it below for those that may not have seen it, however, although it may appear to be factual, it certainly isn't 100% and some common errors quoted in the Press re-appear! Apparently, it doesn't seem to have be written by someone who knew Prof.

Discussion message Re: NEW SCIENCE ADVISORY COUNCIL FOR DEFRA

Originally from: Mary Critchley All the old lags in fact, Mona …but I don't think we have heard the last on this yet. Nor on the millions still owed to small businesses as the government throws money like this around.

Discussion message Re: Re: BSE/Scrapie files

Originally from: Ron New Readers, Please start at the bottom message and read them to the top. Well we seem to have had some sensible discussion in the last 24 hours, but no input from any Breeder who has been involved with the Scrapie Testing. So I've tidied up the threads and will put it back on all three Groups to see if we can get any response from the Breeders.

Discussion message Re: Pass the Kleenex.

Originally from: Jill Britten Well I can. After all let me get this straight, she LIED. Then she LIED again, but I have to say in her defence she lives with someone who personally took control of FMD and has lied about TVI's signing FORM A's, lied about the number of animals slaughtered, LIED about the legality of the contiguous cull and so on ad nauseum.

Discussion message Re: Lead poisoning

Originally from: and I'm afraid you're a little late Bill, as the debate was this afternoon and Sir John left a little earlier than planned possibly due to some unfortunate questions about his relationship to Roy Anderson. You can still see what was said through the link, though Krebbs was pretty evasive really, as one would expect, he was pressed over the contiguous cull and the national scrapie plan as well as Mark Purdey.

Discussion message Peter Greenhill Responds to Elliot Morley

Originally from: Farmtalking RESPONSES TO ELLIOT MORLEY`S LETTER DATED 16TH. JULY 2002. VACCINATION: In almost every report (including the Northumberland report) there has been opposition to the mediaeval slaughter only policy and a demand for vaccination. The nonsense spouted by this Government and its so-called advisors on vaccination simply flies in the face of the facts.
