when we try to export lambs, the 'greenies' are up in arms, could I politely suggest, they go and protest at the ports these sheep were loaded, there protests there would be valid

And the picture of the sheep being dragged along by "rescuers" by the horns.

BBC doesn't allow comments on this story.

Tragic. Just imagine the headlines if it was on our coast.

To be fair its hardly the farmers or exporters fault the ship overturned.

Good point.

I'm in the fortunate position of being able to choose where my finished livestock ends up.

Not surprising animals suffering is hilarious to you scumbags.

Who's laughing?
Personally I find it terribly sad.
And please don't call me a scum bag on here unless you are prepared to say it to my face.

He wasn’t laughing, he was pointing out that someone had already started a thread on the subject. Nobody finds it amusing in the least.

your views are your own, personally, I find the loss of 14,000 sheep horrendous. What amuses me, is that you, representing the vegans, and other groups of people, would flock to uk ports, to demonstrate against live exports, where everything is inspected to the nth degree. But you wouldn't go and protest at the ports, in other countries, where there is only very basic standards. The reason ? you are to scared to go. The liberal, and benign society here, allows you to protest, covers the cost of policing etc. In other ports, in other countries, you would have a rough ride. So, what it boils down to, you do not care about animal welfare, you go through the motions of protesting here, in the uk, where you can get away with protesting, in what, is arguably one of the best countries, best animal welfare, in the world, but are to frightened to go, where your views are needed,

Last time I checked it's not illegal to protest in Romania. You have any evidence there have never been any began protests in a country like Romania?

Incorrect.


He is a good guy and smiling politely in that post.

 

[som farmer]

have you, or any of your friends been ? If the answer is no, I stand by my remarks, you are basically to scared to go. Attacking uk farming, where you can, means you are taking an easy target, or, in another view, all you are, is a bully.
