Horses feared to turn to donkey in UK meat scandal

Amid worsening horse meat scandal in Britain that has forced the country’s food standard agency to test all beef products for the presence of horse meat, worries are now being raised that meat suppliers could be also feeding people with donkey meat.


Last month, the Irish Food Safety Authority said beef burgers with traces of horse DNA have been supplied to British supermarkets that led to some 10 million burgers being taken off the shelves.

Horse meat was later also found in burgers in France and French Consumer Affairs Minister Benoit Hamon announced on Saturday that they have traced the horse meat to Romania, but there were also links with French, Dutch and Cypriot companies as well as a factory in Luxembourg.

European officials partly blamed a recent law in Romania that banned horse-drawn carts from roads as responsible for the fraudulent sales of horse meat as thousands of animals formerly used on the roads were feared to have been slaughtered for their meat.

“Horses have been banned from Romanian roads and millions of animals have been sent to the slaughterhouse,” vice-president of the European Parliament agriculture committee Jose Bove said.

Now, it has emerged that the mentioned law also banned the use of donkeys on the roads, triggering concerns that donkeys may have also been sent to slaughterhouses and fed to the European market by insincere suppliers.

This comes as the French government has pointed the finger at Britain as one of the culprits in the scandal by cutting the budget for EU food-safety checks in Brussels.

French and British governments have already promised to punish those behind the sales of horsemeat in beef products in European countries.

The supplier's are probably British and French owned operating in those countries because they think they can get away with it-and listen to the phoney politician's promising RR

damm right chairman!

the horse and donkey meat coming form that area there..Romania, Kosovo, Albania, Bulgaria..right in the heart of the global human body parts trade.  the most cruel, vicious and awful people up in there, in Albania in particular.  they have been accused by the UN of snatching people by the thousands for slaughter for body their parts.

dat is why I am absolutely certain that in the ground 'beef' in European stores people are buying and eating human meat and they don' know.  dem fellas and dem toss human bodies gutted of their parts into the mix for sure, getting rid of the evidence totally

you pay your money and take your chances yes.  OH Jesus H Chrise.  things truly bad in human life eh.  humans are truly awful beings aren't we

Perhaps the most perplexing aspect of AT&T Stadium, otherwise known as “Jerry World,” is the glare from the sun that bursts through the windows and shines directly onto the field. Time and time again the glare has impacted players’ visibility during games, yet Jerry Jones refuses to make any changes to account for the sun.

Rather than install curtains, Jones has previously said he feels it’s a home-field advantage to have that type of stadium factor impacting games. Well, the glare ended up benefitting the Chiefs early into Thursday’s Thanksgiving game, as a pass from Dak Prescott to George Pickens fell incomplete, at least in part due to the impact of the sun’s glare.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."
