Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)

Here we go again !

The government doing nothing for animal welfare but trying to convince farmers – their voters – that they are acting regarding TB allegedly in Badgers.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-devon-37158418

As you can see from many of our posts on the last recent badger cull, which are listed here; the joke of a UK government (Defra) are not even doing post kill checks to actually see that the animals do / do not have TB !! – yes, they just kill them but do not follow up with checks o see if any animals are carrying the disease.

It seems from info obtained on 24/8 that it will cost approximately £7,000 for each animal to be culled.  And then the government does not even check for TB – is this a sad joke or what ????

Here is our post from last time relating specifically to this –

Here are the main links from our site when we had the last badger cull a few months back:

The only positive news is that the twin pratts – Cameron and Patterson, have both been removed from their positions.  The bad news is that the government learns nothing from the last cull (see links above) and instead goes out for more kills just to please the farmers and to make it look as if they are addressing the problem of TB; which they are not.

As the first link says from the BBC, and as we have argued for years, it is the transportation of live cattle all over the country which is really causing the problem.  The government will not address this.  Farmers for example sell Bovines in the North to farmers in the South; these animals are shipped by road; passing through several counties; and then everyone jumps up and down where there is a new TB outbreak in the South.  To the normal person it is not rocket science – to government dimwits, they just don’t see it; but then votes from farmers are their most important thing.

Government – how about looking into live animal transport issues ? – but then you support live exports so we should not expect anything positive from you here.

And as for ol’ Badger, he takes the blame for transmitting the disease, he is killed, no research is done by DEFRA and they go on wasting public money.  Utter incompetent ‘tools’ – each and every one of them who think they are so higher up the pyramid.  No – they are fools !!

Patterson and Cameron have both now gone – does this not say something ?
