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'd quit this thread, let those who just want to slag Labour off have their own thread.  Your views on the economy are worth debating.  I'm just stunned how there wasn't this level of noise with the last government.  I could try to get some dirt on Badenoch but she is pointless  Whilst I am not a fan of the Daily Mirror at least there is some respite from Labour bashing. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/grenfell-hillsborough-families-make-powerful-36175862 https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/nigel-farage-facing-parliamentary-investigation-36188612  
    • That is a bit cake and eat it tho, isn’t it?    At what point do we stop respecting other people’s opinions and beliefs  because history shows us we sometimes simply have no other choice  you are holding some comfort blanket that allows you to believe we are all equal and all valid and we can simply voice different options - without that ever  impacting on the real world  Were the racists we fought in previous generations different? Were their beliefs patronised by the elites of the time? Or do we learn lessons and avoid mistakes of the past?   racists/bigots having “just as much to say” is both true and yet, a thing we have learnt from the past. The lesson was not “ooh let’s hear them out. They sound interesting and valid and as worthy of an audience as people who hold the opposite opinion” 
    • I don't have a beef with you. But I do have a beef with people who feel that a certain portion of the public's opinion isn't valid.  I don't like racism any more than anyone else here. But I do dislike the idea that an individual's thoughts, beliefs and feelings, no matter how much I may disagree with them, are somehow worth less than my own.  And I get the sense that that is what many disenfranchised voters are feeling - that they are being looked down upon as ignorant, racists who have no right to be in the conversation. And that's what brings out people on the margins and drives them towards extremes, like Reform.  Whether you like it or not, the racist, bigot, anti-european nextdoor to you has just as much say in the country as you do. Intellectual superiority is never going to bring them round. 
    • What is your beef with me ? Why are you asking rhetorical questions?  fighting me but excusing reform? have a look in the mirror  you’ve lost your way
