Live export of calves
I think it is Mrs. Manning (Recorder, May 2) who needs to get her
facts straight concerning the issue of live exports. Of course we
realize that to produce milk dairy cows must calve but the point at
issue is that these calves should not be exported "on the hoof" but
"on the hook". Has she not seen the films of the horrendous journeys
these baby calves, who have been taken from their mothers barely a
few weeks old, face? Sending cows to Uganda for a specific purpose
has nothing to do with the protests which are purely about animals
being exported abroad just for slaughter. Maybe Mrs. Manning should
make it her business to find out from Compassion in World Farming
the barbaric methods used in some of the abattoirs.
As to her point that the Rev Gordon Newton and his wife (God bless them both) should be more concerned with saving souls, it's lives lived with compassion, caring and in the spirit of Jesus that saves souls and Gordon Newton and his wife have these qualities in abundance.
