This Labour government messed up spectacularly over the last foot and mouth outbreak in 2001 which cost the UK around £8bn and look as though they have not learnt the lessons of that outbreak. Vaccinate, vaccinate, vaccinate should be the policy; instead this government impose control zones but forget to shut footpaths through the zones, rather than kill the infected cattle on-site and bury under lime, they transport them across the country to be burnt - en route they let the cattle out to have a drink and feed in an empty field, BIO-SECURITY, do these people have any idea? If we do not take action soon then this outbreak will be as bad as the last and the British cattle farmers will move another step closer to extinction.
I suppose I should point out that this government are hampered because they cannot do much on dealing with this outbreak without the permission of the EU, but since this government has rolled over and submitted to the EU so often I see no reason to cut them any slack.
