Bovine TB

Proceeding contribution from Kerry McCarthy (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 19 July 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Bovine TB.
It has been obvious to those of us who attend Environment, Food and Rural Affairs questions that the Government have intended for months to sneak this statement out on the last day before the recess. That is because the Secretary of State knows that the science does not support culling or the new blood sport that she has just created. When will the Government stand up to the farming lobby and tackle the impact of cattle movements and farmers allowing cattle that they know to be infected to go to market?
