I don't think there has been much buying for meat at recent auctions in the current climate, I know Turner was not buying for meat at llanybydder last month because of their current investigations.

The photos certainly look staged, together with a comment by someone who claims to know her that they are staged. And that she has 2/3 acres would suggest that it's not necessary for her to keep them in her lounge. And that she has been helped by an Animal Sanctuary, re-homing most of them already. And had them all checked by a vet.
Its a silly newspaper report, but since most of the ponies are re homed with professional assistance, guess its a result.
Seems she knew it would make her look stupid, but considered that worth it for the publicity to find them homes.
Is it right that her motivation was because of the slaughter house she was bidding against?
"Two slaughtermen have been sacked after an undercover investigation exposed shocking cruelty to horses at an abattoir... The Food Standards Agency told the Daily Mirror it has revoked the licences of two slaughtermen after a probe into the video... FSA head of approvals Craig Kirby said: 'As soon as we got the footage and reviewed it we took immediate action to revoke the slaughtermen's licences... 'We will also look to gather further evidence to see if we can prosecute.'..." |

I am going slightly of subject here but, I listened to a radio show the other day about people that are violently cruel to animals often end up being violent to a partner and that there is an increase in this type of behaviour, this does not just mean men either its been reported that this is going on involving both sexes, I find this really worrying as if your in a relationship with this kind person they are abusing the whole household including pets, I think this is awful situation to be in.
I have always thought how someone treats there animals is often a indication into what type of person they are, this theory has been proved really with these findings, what kind of person feels the need to be cruel or violent to an animal that is about to be slaughtered some low life scum I think no one I would want to be associated with and would not want to share my house or life with such a person as in time the violence will be directed at you, very sad. |
