Not sure if is Halal or not, but it certainly keeps Chez SB in fine carnivorous fettle.

But if you go the local butcher you can still get the cut of meat you want without additives.
Put the crap stuff in crispy pancakes.

Don't get me wrong i'm not defending the EU here, just questioning the validity of the "facts" published in the UK press, where there is nothing in the press in other (not only EU) countries. As according to your own post the disease is more prevalent on the continent and we supposedly have 60000 cases here, extrapolating this number should result in 100'000's of cases in Europe, where are the "facts" to back this up?
Which one is more believable - tinfoil hat level of cover up by the EU or misleading "facts" in the UK press.
It's non news really, but the British press love the idea of foreigners bringing diseases, however harmless, that have names similar to other dangerous diseases but in fact have nothing in common. It would be like a variant of the common cold being called canser and then the papers getting hold of it to report on foreigners giving everyone canser, even though all that happens is they have a runny nose.Last edited by BlasterBates; 22 May 2017, 11:59.

No, of course, you don't. I will remind you. It is a disease, a fungus, that kills Ash trees.
It has swept through Europe and killed 90% of the Ash trees in affected countries. It first arrived in the UK in 2012 and made the papers in 2015/2016.
I confidently predicted that the Wail will report it again within the next six months with the headline:
Juncker in EU BREXIT plot to kill OUR trees
Not because it's accurate, or relevant, but because it will sell papers.
Secondly, I predict that shortly after publishing the headline on their website Darmstadt will link it in a new thread on CUK. Thus boosting the Google Page-Rank of the Wail article, driving more traffic to their site and increasing their advertising revenue.
