Sians just said can they claim it's British if it was packaged in this country?
They can't use the Red Tractor sign though. The little oval stamp can say UK EEC, then a code for where it was packed. Then somewhere in tiny writing it will say "produce of New Zealand, packed in the UK". Or if you're Makro, you won't even try and hide the fact :facepalm:
I may have said this before today, but it's b*llocks like this that rips my knitting :mad:

At least I've had one laugh today.
But it is bloody scandalous and does make you wonder (again) why we all go along with the RT scam.

If it's not reared in Britain it's not fecking British!!!!!:mad::mad::mad::mad:

I have a passport....it declares me as British.

Why do cattle passports not work a similar way, and therefore it can only be sold by what's on the passport?

I vote for biometric cow passports...! Please come over here Daisy and place your eye against the scanner....

Maybe they are just following UK immigration policy since Tony and his cronies came to power.

Tin hat on.:bag:
