Default Out with the Jeyes again?

No. It means it is not permitted by law in UK. (Huge snip)


Only because we have too many Civil Servants and because they have nothing
better to do they pass their time blindly following every silly rule that
with common sense should not be applied to every case, unlike in France
where their priority is to protect their way of life and do what their
people want. Ever found a restaurant if France that keeps their cheese at
the EU legal temperature, ie. cold? No, it's always at room temperature.

Probably Jeyes can't or won't afford huge cost of the animal testing needed
to continue it's use as an insecticide and get a MAFF number, rather like
Armillotox.

With all the pesticides etc taken off the market, personally I'm beginning
to wonder if it's all a plot to stop ordinary people growing veg for
themselves.
