Somewhere in the remotest part of County Cork there's a guy with 11,000 cows and a milk round. The milk round doesn't take long 'cos Shergar's pulling the float.

I always thought there had to be an upside of having wild cattle.

Another good reason for a hard border

 

[wdah/him]

hard border wont stop it but at the same time, the report needs to say how many from which county, age of cattle etc.

yes I suspect fraud there,

That narrows it down to about 90% of the county.

Was there not apparently a shed that straddled the border where Northern Irish cattle went in one end and came out the other end as Irish cattle...………………..allegedly.

 

[ridger]

That'd be 7 or 8 cattle a week for the whole of ni, that's not that many! If deaths hadn't to be reported within seven days there wouldn't be as many missing possibly

 

[Big guy]

I know of a few cases of cattle reported ‘stolen’ a few days before annual tb test or day before a herd inspection...

 

[milkloss]

Stolen cattle don’t have to be picked up by the knackerman

 

[M-J-G]

He wants to identify the factories that are taking these cattle, yet they are being slaughtered in back yard setups?

Don't say that!
It would mean one less excuse for when cattle need to disappear.

That's more like it!

A neighbour of ours has in laws who have the farmyard etc in NI but the majority of the grazing block in the ROI.

I saw a report on the news last night, reckon the buggers case the yard for mostly fit cattle, load them up, change tags to Irish tags and have them in a southern factory.

They had CCTV footage of lads going into a yard at 1.45am, leaving and coming back at 3, with a lorry. 26 cattle gone.

Mainly retired gun men from South Armagh, now into organised crime, same people who nick atm machines.

Hopefully i'm too far south of border to be affected.

10 bullock stolen beside here last week, brought 32 into a yard in middle of night and picked the best, lorry involved , pool ice didn’t even call out , gave crime number and told them to contact insurers!!.
29 stolen two weeks before not far away.
Big big problem in the border areas

Isn't it the IRA who are stealing cash machines to re-arm?

Paramilitaries on both sides are behind most, if not all organised crime in NI. More lucrative than blowing everyone up. It's all about the money.

Ex army bloke told me their biggest job was stopping pig smuggling from north to south and back again
