// And she’s off!// - yup - the screaming back biting and botching re-starts. Ladies please ! football association rules....

If Naomi says that farmers up her end machine gun piggies and then dance around with blood smeared on their faces, we must accept that as the truth....it er stands to reason

Any olds remember the post war pig-clubs? ( 1945-50) raise two piglets and give one to da gubmint and keep one. My father used to aske the eastern european refugees ( DPs ) to slaughter small animals but not as large as pigs. I think that was done centrally

the film A Bit of a Do - I think features them ( or not)

Ladies - please - unsmear your lipstick, do not use your nail file as a stiletto....
What they do on a small, personal scale is not going to scale up, legally or logistically, to 150,000 pigs.
Naomi -I am not disputing they killl their own animals. I'm disputing what you said about them then sending dead animal to local butchers to be processed. Its not legal, and any butcher would not risk their local licence in doing so.
Farmers in general dispatch an animal for their own use using “private slaughter” which is when the owner of the animal sends it to an approved slaughterhouse to be slaughtered and the dressed carcase is returned to the owner. Animals that undergo ‘“private
slaughter” would be subject to formal inspection procedures by the Food Standards Agency (FSA) as determined by the Official Control Regulations (OCR), following which the carcase would receive a health mark to verify that it is fit for human consumption. It is illegal to sell or give away to anyone other than a direct member of your family, meat processed either way.
We've done this for years and know the rules.
Ellipsis, that was the point I was trying to make when someone suggested that instead of a cull the farmers could open a farm shop and sell the pork -impossible on so many levels.
APG, dispute all you like, that's what they do. All mates together I guess.
PP, //If Naomi says that farmers up her end machine gun piggies and then dance around with blood smeared on their faces, we must accept that as the truth....it er stands to reason //

But Naomi didn't say that or anything like it. .
Naomi Either the Food Standards Agency have got it wrong in their official document, or 'all' the farmers and their butcher mates in your area are committing a crime. Why not just gracefully accept you are perhaps wrong, or confused, and leave it there? (big ask I know) No one really cares one way or another.
If you don't care stop harping on, APG. I know what happens here. You don't.
And I didn't say 'all' either. I said //Some // ... but don't let that stop you, apg.
End of. :-)
Naomi 17.35 // Farmers here kill their own animals and local butchers do the rest for them. // not a 'some' anywhere to be found in that sentence.
APG, Read 18.22 weds…. that’s if you’re interested.
Not interested . You trying to back track has gone on too long - fill yer boots and get the last word in. You made a mistake -no one cares except you !
No mistake apg. This what I said. // That’s what some of the farmers here do. //

Have a nice day. :o)
....new balls please!
