BRITISH BEEF BACK ON THE MENU


British beef is due to go back onto the menu in Europe after an export ban lasting 10 years. The European Union originally announced the ban on the export of British Beef due to fears of mad cow disease and in response to public fears of it spreading to humans. The ban is now expected to be lifted in the next 6 weeks as the UK has made great strides in tackling the disease. Good news for British farmers, many of whom went bankrupt at the height of the BSE crisis.
