Don’t buy the beef from Brazil
Sir, – While our focus, quite rightly, has been on Covid and the long-hoped-for relaxation of lockdown, the Westminster Government has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Brazil.
President Bolsonaro, besides being one of the main Covid-deniers, is allowing the destruction of the Amazon Rainforest.
To sign a Memorandum of Understanding with such a man and his government flies in the face of the commitment the UK Government has given not just to farmers, but to the general public, that it will not allow substandard foods to enter this country.
Brazilian beef is produced using growth-promoting and product-boosting hormones.
