Levels of potentially dangerous drug residues in chickens destined for the dinner table may well be higher than suggested by government figures, according to a new report by organic farming group the Soil Association. From the government report's own author who disagrees with government's spin on the issue: Despite repeated assertions by regulators that nearly all poultry products are free from detectable residues, figures show clearly that about 20% of chicken meat and 10% of the eggs tested contain residues of drugs deemed too dangerous for use in human medicine.Value Bi-Furcation against Crust Punx

Business Class Tube launched in London
