What really??? There is a chance that this could happen here in Britain? Quick Lionheart we must do something! I suggest we do what all good wholesome English fella's do and panic buy pork!! Lots ands lots of pork! Let us start the co-ordination of the pork resistance from here! Anyone who wants to contribute to a fleet of refigerated vans so that we can tour Britain and Europe purchasing and gathering up all the pork we can muster please sign up here! We have no time to lose! Please can any pig farmers or van drivers on this forum help by signing up here! I suggest that when we have gathered all the pork availiable in the western world that we bury it under the millenium dome and when the inevitable happens, we can all meet up there when we want to eat our pork! We shall show them! They may take our nativity plays, they may take our teddy bears but they will never, ever take our pork!

Yes I know there’s a separate argument for vegetarianism but the EU should not touch Turkey with a bargepole. ,What next – Iran? Where does this ‘greater Europe’ end?

That's another argument Eq - and I agree with you completely. 'EU' stands for 'European Union' not 'Another silly attempt at a (partial) Global State' and - IMO - before the EU starts to take in countries from other continents it needs to put its own house in order ... Starting with the 'Democratic Deficit'.
Anyway, - The post which started this thread is yet another rib tickler. It reminds me of the joke about the Rabbi and the Catholic priest, both of whom had bought new cars:
The padre went outside and sprinkled Holy Water on his car to bless it.
Not to be outdone, the rabbi brought out a junior hacksaw and sawed an inch off the tailpipe.
Then the padre said to the rabbi: "Neat car! - Would you like a cup of coffee and a bacon sandwich?"
"Oie veh! The coffee would be very welcome, but I'll pass on the bacon butty. I'm glad we're finally talking to one another. I'm going out tonight - I've got a date - but I need somebody to look after her friend. Do you want to come?"
"No thanks." said the priest ... "Have you ever tried bacon sarnies?"
"Yes, I have to admit I have", said the rabbi. "Have you ever tried sex?"
" 'Fraid so", said the priest.
"Better than bacon, isn't it?" said the rabbi.
Tell me when the Turks close down their brothels and you'll really attract my attention.
After all: "Fried Turkeys are light".

I'm appalled by the lack of enthusiasm for the pork resistance! Where are the pig farmers of Norfolk? Where are the Van Drivers? Well, nobody can accuse myself and the wise Lionheart of not warning you. You'll have to have chicken on Sunday instead.

This news comes on the day that Tesco have switched to using purely British pork from Norfolk...

I wonder how many jumped to a wrong conclusion before reading the BBC article to the end ?
It belongs with the straight banana story.
What is wrong with bringing slaughterhouses into the 21st century ? As Equitator hints, it might help with an EU application.
But go on, believe what you want to believe.
Yosemite is overdue !

Good news!
I never stole your flag, I just rescued it from the gutter where you left it.
For the truth go to www.bnp.org.uk just a link, like Denise has.
