It's a conspiration, I tell you.
Zed has warned us so many times but, woe to us, we never listened!

As Cowpoos said, soon it will be barcode in your forehead, stamped with the number of the beast: 1000K6

Once again - another revenue-generating excercise by the sounds of it, with no apparent improvement over how its done today...

Poos, where will they expect you to stick these chips? (I think I already know your answer!

I'm opposed.. I also support removing the "dangerous breeds" restrictions, because some of my favorutie breeds are banned.

I fully believe that you should be able to have killer dogs to guard your property. Then again I also believe you should be allowed to shoot trespassers. Bastard hippies in parliament :-(

MP plans vote to exempt farm dogs from microchips

Farm dogs could escape being microchipped under plans by United Future MP Gordon Copeland to force a vote in Parliament.

The MP believes he could get the numbers to pass an amendment to an omnibus bill, expected to be introduced next week, that contains changes to the Dog Control Act.

His move could exempt farm dogs from the microchipping rules which come into force on July 1.

Bugger all this pissing around, lets just get to going with the mind control chips, so that we don't give a shit about working our asses off, and giving all of our money to a government cash sink/black hole.

I'm going to write to Mr Carter, methinks. Fook this, lets all move to some dodgy state on or near the equator, buy the poor local bastards out, ship them back here to piss off aunty Helenstein (distant relative of Frank...) and build racetrack roads galore! Bet we could do it for 10 to 15 percent total tax.

Leave the stupid beaurocrats, and those with beaurocratic tendancies in s small inflatable boat with a big hole in it.

I'll stick a chip in my dog, when I am allowed to stick a chip in said politician. dogs live 7 years to our 1, so the chip would be 7 times wider, 7 times higher, and 7 times more painful to insert!! (and it would be made of arsenic)
