CONTINENTAL beef is less safe than British, but the other EU governments disguise this. Even so, inspectors in Belgium are murdered.
Therefore, the answer to the EU ban on British beef exports should be a similar ban on all imports of beef, milk, butter and cheese. But our Government ministers and civil servants are too cowardly to do this and opposition politicians are more cowardly still.
