YET another letter from K Ball. Where on earth has this man been for the past 30-40 years? Surely he must have had his head buried in the sand.
It seems he was not aware of how farm animals are reared and transported until the foot and mouth epidemic roused him from his slumber.
Does he not read the literature or see programmes on the TV which have shown graphic pictures of creatures, including chickens being reared, transported throughout Britain and Europe and slaughtered?
We have in this country several well established organisations dedicated to the welfare of animals.
If Mr Ball is serious about his concern for animals he should assist these organisations.
A donation would be appreciated by any worthy charity who have compassion and demonstrated their commitment to the welfare of animals. If he refrained from eating meat I'm sure the poor animals would 'applaud' him.
Mr C Catton,
Clayton-le-Woods.
