Isn’t there anything that this government haven’t lost yet. Officials at the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) have admitted to loosing 20,979 cows.

The livestock should have been logged on Defra’s Cattle Tracing System, devised to protect public and animal health after the BSE and foot and mouth epidemics.

However the cattle have disappeared from the system, while another 1039 are believed to have been loaded onto cattle trucks and never heard of again, according to the Daily Star.
