This is disgusting, deceiving the consumer again! My husband is generally very good at looking at labels but this is something else! @Morrisons I thought you were better than this, @NoFarmsNoFoods @BiteintoBritish. We must get the labelling sorted asap @_RobbieMoore @NFUtweets

100 is hard enough, 1000 is almost super human! Even more impressive with age and Parkinsons factored in. C'mon folks give this a follow and support..... 1000 press ups EVERY day in January for Parkinsons

Original had to be diluted for print The crux of the problem with #supplychain is that farmers&various orgs are strangled into silence. Even when someone’s prepared to take one for the team and say it how it is it’s censored- therein lies the problem. Original attached – at Yorkshire and The Humber, England
