has just passed a law that forbids you to eat your pet horse, the Horse Identification Regulations, which comes into force next month means that every horse owner in the UK must sign a pledge stating that pets are off the menu!
anyone who refuses to sign will face prison or an unlimited fine, furious stable owner Kate Gillanders, of Kinross, Perthshire, said yesterday: “We don’t see our horses as cattle, the thought of them being eaten is utterly repulsive, Brussels is poking its nose in where it should not be, the EU knows nothing about me and cares even less, “This nonsense is somebody else’s obsession.”
the crackdown is the brainchild of EU Agriculture Commissioner Mariann Fischer Boel,
more worrying however is the Europe wide trade in counterfeit or stolen zebras, now reaching evidently epidemic proportions, so much so that every zebra will be bar coded in the future to stop this huge trade, this brainless scheme was thought up by Defra, you may remember these fat cats who have to defend their fat cats salary's, they have featured on our blog before,
UKIP leader Nigel Farage said: "I wasn't even aware we had a problem with stolen African wild zebras roaming the streets of our cities."
Defra was yesterday unable to say whether any zebras had recently been nicked, (stolen).
