854 now I suppose.

The pressure is mounting on Britain's quite extraordinary decision not
to start testing British pigs for MRSA until ordered to so in January
by the EU. 

...and their continued refusal to release any results.

They will have to release believable results in the end

It waa four years ago that the Dutch warned of transmission to pig
farmers and took steps to protect their hospitals.

Pat:   The longer they dither, the worse they look.  Expect some
verry real damaga  control.   One thing your Brits always do....try to
cover your failing asses.  This time it's not going to work.   I can
tell you this, forthright.   The Indonesians, Malaysians and the
Taiwanese, aren't going to buy the bullshit.  They'll source breeding
stock  eslewhere.   That the Chinese have cut a deal is big news, so
highly touted by your super-duper BPEX and NPA.    As you are an ex-
shipbroker, get a copy of all the Phyto-Sanitary Certificates, with
all the points of origin, vaccinations and related documentation.
When the Chinese actually have the live animals, they have to go
through quarantines.   The Chinese will test for everything.  Draw
Blood.   Then the Shit will hit the fan.

Then it will be a huge PR campaign of "Oh God, we got screwed."

I look forward to the news.

For sure, all the noise in the media is grossly misleading. They have
only got an outline agreement despite spending a fortune from the
compulsory levy.

They needed some good publicity to impress the banks and the punters.

The Chinese will now force them to get down to the serious business. 

That will cost another fortune and, doubtless, fail.

That's what you get when you allow government front organisations to
trade internationally.

Communists, in all but name, who believe in state control and big
money for the apparatchiks both ends.

You don't expect this in Britain.
