Up to 50,000 horses ‘disappeared’ across Europe and probably ended up in our food during the 2013 ‘horsegate scandal’ - and it could happen again - warned Professor Chris Elliott, the UK’s leading food fraud expert, at a conference last week.
The professor also warned that food fraud is becoming a global criminal enterprise involving the Mafia and Central American drug cartels, and that we need to act now to prevent it.
Yesterday, the Office of Personnel Management admitted that the number of federal employees' fingerprints compromised in the massive breach of its servers over the summer has grown from 1.1 million to a whopping 5.6 million.

SERIES: BUHARISM AND THE FIERCE URGENCY OF NOW
N70 MILLION 'RELUCTANTLY' VOTED FOR INDEPENDENCE CELEBRATION...BUHARI AS THE REAL PRODIGAL SON!
"It is now very clear to the whole world that Muhammadu Buhari is a hypocrite of the highest order and a deceiver of no mean magnitude. Our MR INTEGRITY rode back to power with a winnowing fork like the Biblical John the Baptist, promising to purify Nigeria and hew down any tree that does not bear good fruits, but has himself become entangled in the mess of the OLD REPUBLIC, returning Nigeria to the 60s when primordial prejudices were not just the order of the day, but very much celebrated.
In his inglorious 119 days in office, Buhari has taken Nigeria backward 49 years! In another 119 days from now, which will be 119 days x 2, Rehoboam would have taken Nigeria back 98 years and in 357 days in office, he would have taken Nigeria backward by 147 years!"
