Please everyone, just don't forget that it is still ongoing in some parts of
the country. Yorkshire is still getting new confirmed cases for example, the
latest YESTERDAY.
For your information the situation in Yorkshire is very close to escalating
into another full-blown *national* disaster again, due to the way it is
currently spreading down major highways and via the wind. The government
should have closed stretches of the A1 months ago... it goes right through a
massive 'contaminated zone' but that would not look good :-(
My dad is not a farmer but the company he works for has lost 90% of it's
work as a direct consequence of F&M. We are in trouble, but the media, not
just the government, has forgotten us. We're old news... to perhaps bring
the thread back on topic.
Jon. Sorry everyone.
