Discussion message More trouble

Originally from: Pat Gardiner For the second time in four years we have been selected for "random tests" on our sheep (2 ewes and 5 lambs). The man sending the letter, Christie, was, according to the former SAS officer who arrived here during the Swine Fever epidemic, the man instructing him. I have no reason to disbelieve this.

Discussion message RE: UK Foot and Mouth 2001

Originally from: Pat Gardiner Yes, we were approached for "random" tests on sheep for agalactica. We had four ewes. I was not convinced that it was "random." I have all the papers somewhere in my heap. I dug my heels in and applied for the second time for the protection of the Speaker of the House of Commons. I'm entitled to that as a witness to a Select Committee. This was refused although Maff-Defra backed off from insisting on the tests.
