@Anna_Soubry It’s the poor quality of MP’s that then go on to become Cabinet ministers and PM’s with just no experience in the real world…. You’re a prime example

BOVAER: PART 2.0
JUST THE TIP OF A VERY NASTY CHEMICAL ICEBERG:
Supermarkets tell us milk is “fresh”, “simple”, “natural”.
But they never tell us what the cows are actually fed.
Behind the scenes: bakery waste, chemical preservatives, synthetic nitrogen (urea), ethanol by‑products, ionophores, mould‑binders… and now methane‑suppressing additives like Bovaer.
None of this appears on the label.
Families deserve transparency.
If supermarkets can list every ingredient in a loaf of bread:
Why can’t they list what’s fed to the cows that make our milk?
What supermarkets don’t tell you about cattle feed:
We imagine cows eating grass.
Supermarkets encourage that image — rolling fields, sunshine, happy cows.
But modern dairy feed is a complex mix of:
• Bakery waste
• Distillers grains
• Urea (synthetic nitrogen fertiliser)
• Ionophores
• Chemical preservatives
• Mycotoxin binders
• Buffers
• Enzymes
• Bovaer
None of this appears on milk labels.
Not even in the “sourcing” pages on supermarket websites.
Supermarkets know consumers care about additives.
They label everything in human food…
but zero transparency on animal feed.
If feed additives are safe
If they’re beneficial
If they’re essential…
Why hide them?
Families deserve honesty.
We shouldn’t need to dig through agricultural journals to know what’s entering the food chain.
Transparency builds trust.
Silence destroys it.
3. SUPERMARKET‑BY‑SUPERMARKET TRANSPARENCY BREAKDOWN:
Tesco
• Provides “grass‑fed” imagery
• No disclosure of feed additives
• No mention of Bovaer or ionophores
• Organic range is the only one with feed transparency
Sainsbury’s
• Similar to Tesco
• No feed ingredient lists
• No disclosure of preservatives, binders, or rumen modifiers
Asda
• No feed transparency
• No mention of additives
• No sourcing detail beyond “British milk”
Morrisons
• Strong on “British farming” branding
• Weak on feed transparency
• No additive disclosure
Waitrose
• Better welfare standards
• Still no full feed ingredient list
• No disclosure of Bovaer or other rumen modifiers
Aldi / Lidl
• No feed transparency
• No additive disclosure
• No sourcing detail beyond “British”
Co‑op
• Ethical branding
• Still no feed transparency
• No additive disclosure
Conclusion:
Every major UK supermarket lists ingredients for human food.
None list ingredients for the feed that produces milk, cheese, yoghurt, butter, or beef.
This is the Transparency Gap.
What’s missing...
• Labels
• Transparency
• Consumer choice
• Informed consent
• Public awareness
LACK OF INFORMATION = LACK OF ACCOUNTABILITY
ARLA WON -- YOU LOST - BOVAER SOON ALL MILK
After the Arla - DMK takeover last week a Huge New Milk Supply Monolith has been Formed.
This means Bovaer‑milk will quietly become the default “standard milk”, while organic milk becomes scarcer and more expensive.
AND YOU WILL NOT BE INFORMED ON LABELS
Why this matters now with the Arla–DMK merger:
This is where things get strategically interesting.
1. Arla is already the most aggressive adopter of Bovaer
They defended it publicly, continued trials, and positioned it as central to their climate strategy.
This means the merged entity is WILL scale Bovaer faster, not slower.
2. DMK brings Germany — a huge dairy market — into the equation
The merger forces a harmonised methane strategy, and Bovaer is the only ready‑to‑deploy tool.
CONSUMERS: Exoect Organic Milk to be Priced out of the Market, not just UK, not just EU, but there will be plans through those financially involved, like Bill Gates, to get BOVAER in Animal Feeds as the de facto position.
And before Mr Gates Operatives on X start to argue:
The Company holding Bovaer Trademarks is DSM-Firmenich -- The Gates Foundation holds extensive shareholdings in this Company.
From Scottish Parliamentary Briefing Papers re Nicola Sturgeon's involvement...
"There also seems to be some information hidden from public view, such as DSM-Firmenich denying any connection with Bill Gates, only for us to discover Bill Gates has purchased 1m shares in the Company, with the major investor behind the scheme, Black Rock"
There will also be price differentiation between Bovaer Milk and Non-Bovaer.
OF COURSE TEN YEARS FROM NOW THERE WILL BE ZERO CHOICE - JUST BOVAER.
For the Arla–DMK giant, this means:
They will push Bovaer harder than ever — because climate targets demand it.
They must avoid another consumer revolt — because the merged brand is too big to hide.
They will likely invest heavily in “green dairy” PR, transparency dashboards, and retailer‑aligned messaging.
Any future health concerns (even unfounded ones) will hit twice as hard because of their scale.
LACK OF CHOICE, LACK OF TRANSPARENCY, PUBLIC REJECTION
We’re sleepwalking into a food system where the public has no real choice at all.
Supermarkets are quietly shifting to “low‑methane milk” using feed additives like Bovaer — and most people don’t even know it’s happening.
There’s no clear labelling.
There’s no public documentation.
There’s no way for families to choose milk without these additives unless they pay organic prices or hunt down tiny local suppliers.
And here’s the truth nobody in the industry wants to say out loud:
Even if every analysis says “no harm”, even if regulators approve it, even if the science is solid…
The public still won’t want it if they feel tricked.
People want transparency.
People want choice.
People want to know what’s going into the food chain — not find out years later through a press release.
This isn’t anti‑science. This isn’t anti‑farmer.
This is about trust.
If the industry keeps rolling out feed additives without open discussion, clear labelling, or public consent, they’re going to trigger a backlash far bigger than they expect.
Choice matters. Transparency matters. Trust matters.
And right now, the public is getting none of them.
MANY FARMERS DO NOT WANT CHEMICALS OF ANY KIND PUT INTO ANIMAN FEED AND THEN INTO THE HUMAN FOOD CHAIN..
Because. It. Is. Insane...
Where are all the climate catastrophe victims and Ecoloons this week..? Completely disappeared off my timeline line… yes, it’s absolutely tipping down outside my window right now..
