Time to ban swill?



LIKE the vast majority of people, I am very upset that foot-and-mouth disease has once again broken out in the United Kingdom.

It is being suggested that there may be a link with the practise of feeding discarded meat products to pigs (pig swill).

The Government has pledged millions of pounds to farmers who have lost their livestock as a result of this terrible disease.

Should the production of pig swill be banned? Surely it would be much better to incinerate the left-over meat than to incinerate the animals.
