Either I'm having a massive irony bypass or that's the singularly dumbest thing I've ever read.


I shit out bacteria and that's passed to others how exactly?

You know when 'others' don't wash their hands after said shitting etc. And when you touch the same door handles etc as them. Or when your favourite pub/reastaurant doesn't have soap. Or when the kids that festoon ED pubs etc fill their nappies. The list is endless.

There were 9042 cases of TB last year. Not one was caused by raw milk. You've more chance of getting it from salad.


To add to that, no-one has caught TB from retail raw milk for decades - to sell it you have to jump through hoops, the hygiene is scrupulous

Middle class luddism and its food fetish exclusivity as a choice does nothing to assist the current malaise within the food commodity markets- it is uneconomic, ego driven and divisive. The nutritional benefits are negligible if at all.What is sold as the anti consumerism choice is a strawman - its is an essential part of the capitalist model- breeding exclusivity to sell more products. it allows a few to participate, yet often uses more valuable rescources to produce,deliver and market.


innit

Im sure your numebrs are correct, as I am sure there have not been any cases of TB from milk for years- but you need to ask yewrself why are there no TB cases from milk any more ? the raw milk sample/ market share is too small to have any significant relevance here I would have thought

Good thinking LL, I'll order my fag to scrub down the 'Rrari while huffing down a Marby Red.

That's me focused.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
