After Alert Over Irish Pork, How Safe is Beef?

The health alert over Irish pork spread to beef yesterday.

Tests found illegal levels of cancer risk chemicals in meat from three farms in the Republic.
The discovery of the dioxins is a major blow for the Irish beef industry, which exports meat worth tens of millions each year.

Sounds like Indutrial sabotage to me just intime to destroy the all ready ailing Irish economy prior to the EU superstates insistance of a second referendum.

Watch how this plays out!!
