There will be little or no compensation paid if it happens again under a conservative government.Will all be blamed on the farmers lack of biosecurity!My thought exactly, didn't Tony Blair do a deal with the Argentinians when their economy was in mess to buy beef off them, not long before F&M in 2001?
It's only a matter of time before it happens again and judging by some of the opinions on this forum on the effects of brexit on agriculture I can see it being the last nail in the coffin for many who simply wouldn't re stock.

I hope we never see F&M in this country again but I'm not optimistic but if we do I think there's far better chance of compensation from a Tory govt than any other. I think there probably would be compensation for loss of stock but they may well tighten up on clean up costs as I know some, mainly the contractors who did the clean up did very well last time.There will be little or no compensation paid if it happens again under a conservative government.Will all be blamed on the farmers lack of biosecurity!
Why has this descended into a Brexit topic ?
TESCO ARE SELLING ARGENTINIAN BEEF IN WELSH STORES NOW.
surely if you want to export products then you have to accept imports at the same time and let the customer buys which they prefer
Your doing some flapping, you are aware that just because you think something it might not necessarily happen ? 24hrs is a along time in politics never mind 2.5 years ! anything could happen in the next few years for better or worse so if i were you id button it or you might be eating words with your custard.That's right. Since we will export banking and services to these 'new' customers, we will need to accept their food imports. Many of our new potential trading 'partners' have little else they can sell back to us. They welcome a free trade agreement with the UK, not because they want to import much from us [they can't afford our goods] but because they want to trade the other way without restrictions.

If machinery is not produced to our standards it's not allowed in (emissions regs etc)but were food is conserned it doesn't matter lf it's produced to standards below ours and with things that are banned here as long as it's cheapTrying to get on thread, why is tesco less "uk loyal" for buying Argentinian beef, than a uk farmer is for buying Egyptian urea, Nisan, JD, Kuhn, Amazon etc etc?

Actually i was trying to get you to limit the damage, because if things after brexit turn out ok 2 good you are going to look lvery silly, but hey ho keep banging away at the keyboard, you wont change anything tho.Are you actually telling me to shut up because you don't like what I'm pointing out? If so, I'll tell you straight out to get fudgeed. No skin off my nose.
I will see you at the other side of the bus then, may the best farmers survive. Watch you dont get squashed dunc.Anyone who doesn't think this is that reality of Britt is either naive or simply stupid.
The currently united kingdom economy is dominated by the financial sector which makes up for near 80% of the whole house of cards.
How else is Westminster going to keep the economy unless they throw primary and secondary manufacturing under the cheap import bus?
