This is a documentary, originally produced by www.ukcolumn.org in 2015 but never before uploaded to Youtube, about the 2001 Foot and Mouth 'pandemic' in the UK. Viewer discretion is advised.

From one of the contributors to the documentary:

"According to Meat & Livestock Commission stats, 12,000,000 animals were slaughtered. This statistic did not include lambs at foot, aborted lambs, calves or piglets. On top of that, tens of thousands of chickens were slaughtered in the early months on 'welfare' grounds. 88% of all animals slaughtered had not contracted FMD (DEFRA).

"Great Orton airfield was used to slaughter sheep under the 'voluntary' cull that was anything but voluntary, and farmers not participating were ruthlessly threatened. There was only one mild case of FMD recorded from the thousands of blood tests done at Great Orton (DEFRA).

"There was a travelator that ran from the slaughter tent at Great Orton to the graves. This ran 16 hours a day transporting 'dead' young lambs. Slaughtermen working there reported that many of the lambs were buried alive."
