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.

    • Do check out changing at Lille if it's possible, as is much easier than changing stations in Paris.  I did London to Montpellier changing at Lille which was very straightforward but it was a little while ago.
    • We go to the South of France by train most summers.   It is pretty easy and you get to arrive right in the centre of the city.  TGVs are generally efficient, reliable and comfortable. Unfortunately the direct London to Marseille Eurostar train seems to have been a  victim of Brexit so you have to change in Paris - most South bound service go from  Gare de Lyon - about a 15 min RER rise from Gare du Nord. Allow plenty of time travelling back from Gare du Nord, it always was horrid but has reach new levels of chaos since Brexit. I would recommend, at least for the home leg, booking the entire journey through Eurostar. That way if your French train is delayed or cancelled and you miss your Eurostar connection back to London,  Eurostar will get you on to a different train home. As for destinations - there is a lot of the South of Fra.ce to choose from.  What are you looking for?     Also Ouigo trains can be a cheaper option than TGVs, but watch out you have to pay extra for things like luggage and seat reservations.  Also they sometimes stop at TGV stations outside the city centre.
    • Do what I do and stick some of these folk on your ignore list.  It's great fun, they just rant away and you will be totally oblivious to it.
