Doesn't really make sense to award a medal to something that didn't inflict the wounds, just saying. Originally posted by steeleye20 The public really ought to wake up to Truss and her spectacularly bad trade deals. The Australian deal deserves a medal for self inflicting wounds on our farmers. Hopefully we will realise the damage industrial meat production is doing to the planet not least its link to the pandemic, and reject USA and other obnoxious trade deals involving animals crammed together.

I hadn't realised that Tory farmers had so many supporters amongst the left. We don't know the details of the deal yet but farmers have been supported by the taxpayers for decades and what have we got in return, BSE, foot and mouth, salmonella and various other health issues and environmental concerns. If we are to continue to subsidise them then they should move away from battery hens etc. One more point

Opinions are what the forums are about. Can I ask why do you use " Tory " rather than Conservative. Do you think it's a good perjorative word and fits well into the narrative. The last leader of the Tory Party was the Duke of Wellington. Edited by HKOwen (01 Jun 2021 11.47am) Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition.

OK Originally posted by Jimenez [Link] Some more good news. "The move, which is still under review at the company's US headquarters, would create 50 full-time jobs at the factory" Yep, definitely worth throwing away £billions of business from the financial & services industry, freedom of movement to the rest the EU, putting peace in NI at risk and decimating the fishing and farming industries.

I have to say I haven't come across a subject you are not a self professed expert in yet. Just off the top of my head that is farming, accountancy, law, human resources, care homes, general medicine, vaccines and that is without trawling earlier posts. That's one hell of a lot of first degrees, masters degrees and private time studying. I'm amazed you find the time to post on here.
