The National Farmers Union (NFU) said the UK was seeing recurring cases of salmonella because meat, poultry and eggs have not been checked properly since leaving the EU. It comes as the Food Standards Agency (FSA) said it was investigating a recent rise in cases of salmonella food poisoning linked to poultry from Poland.
“A number of the cases have involved the consumption of eggs produced in Poland and used in meals in restaurants and cafés,” said Tina Potter, head of incidents at the FSA.
More than 200 human cases of salmonellosis linked to poultry products such as eggs and meat were reported this year.
These Tories should be unceremoniously kicked out of office as soon as possible. The buffoons in that party are utterly stupid. Please note that I write as a lifelong, but ex-Conservative voter. Never would I vote for those clowns again! They have ruined this country. It would be hard to imagine how they could possibly have done more damage to this country in the last thirteen or so years than they have done.
Our country is not safe in Tories’ hands. Get the SOBs out of office now! And let the party die a natural death, just like the Whigs before them. The party is not fit for purpose. For starters, they spend taxpayers’ money like drunken sailors. Corruption is rife in the party to boot.
Why the LibDems don’t come out and say unequivocally that they intend to take the UK back into the EU at the earliest possible convenience is beyond my comprehension. This country desperately needs to go back into the European Union, even if we have to abandon the pound sterling and adopt the euro. Taking us back into the EU would be a vote-winner for the LibDems; indeed, I would go as far as to say that this policy alone could be the making of the party. It could knock the Tories into third place, into the long grass – where they belong.
