Global food takeover? - MAFF makes a move!

"Ministers expect that by 2005 as many as 25% of farms - almost all small ones - will have closed or merged, with 50,000 people forced to leave the industry." - Yeah, right!

Maybe that FMD & Monsanto/Cargill conspiracy article a week or two back on IMC was not so far fetched after all?

From today's Grauniad:-

The government plans a major reduction in the number of farms and farmers as part of a recovery package for British agriculture in the wake of the foot and mouth outbreak, the Guardian has learned.

Ministers expect that by 2005 as many as 25% of farms - almost all small ones - will have closed or merged, with 50,000 people forced to leave the industry.

The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (Maff) is soon due to publish three major reports analysing the long-term structural crisis in British farming. The reports, central to the government's strategy for agriculture published last year, are likely to argue that large scale farms tend to be more productive, and are more likely to compete successfully in an increasingly liberalised trade in world food.

Well, well, well,

Now we are reminded of MAFF's machinations in all their seditious vileness - a cover for the not so subtle global elite's plans for domination of the food supply.

Swallow or Retch? We have a deep sickness in this country - it's called elitist greed.
