Neither do I John...it makes me really sick....but if I thought I would get transported for stealing one....I might be tempted(just to steal it - not to eat it).

I prefer lamb over beef. Some say it is too greasy, but not if you trim off all fat before cooking.

It has an added advantage -
....sheep eat grass and aren't raised in sheds eating recycled dead flesh, so it is only way I eat meat that isn't labelled 'organic'.

I could eat it, but it would come back double quick...lamb makes me throw up...salmon does the same...don't know what it is about it...and it doesn't matter how it is cooked......even the smell of it makes me feel queasy.

Well I love lamb.

Commonwealth lamb, from New Zealand's lush pastures.

You can keep your European mutton, raised on dust.

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?

Graham Jones's feeble attempts in his blog, to try and label those who are demanding a referendum as some right-wing nationalists, and Little Englanders, is yet more utter dross.

Personally I adore mainland European culture.

As part of my degree I studied there. I've worked there. I've travelled extensively in Europe. I planned to retire to the continent. My first love was from there. Hell, I even lost my virginity to a mainland European, whilst staying there, and more importantly, until recently I was a lifelong Labour supporter.

So that pathetic attempt to label people as bigoted extremists, certainly doesn't wash with me.

To be honest I wouldn't waste my time reading a blog of any person that treats his constituents with utter contempt, I like the though of yourself and accyman right wing nationalist and little englanders, anybody heard if he's the Edinburgh Fringe this year

Yes, it was never really going to stick, that label.

Unlike the one now super glued to a certain someone's forehead, proclaiming them a 'Hypocrite.'

Germany agrees to referendum over controversial EU banking union in move that increases pressure for British vote | Mail Online
I wonder if the will be a C change in thinking about Europe, now that the Germans are even saying no further integration will take place without the say so of the German people
