The riots came as the UK reported two more cases of foot-and-mouth in the south-west of England. Any arrival of the disease on the continent would be a severe setback to farmers already struggling with the emergence of BSE in cattle. The threat of an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease in Europe added further tension to the planned protest over the BSE crisis being held ahead of Monday’s meeting of agricultural ministers at EU headquarters. Police fired water cannons to disperse the farmers. Foot-and-mouth and BSE, or mad cow disease, were expected to dominate the agenda of Monday's meeting. Nick Brown, UK agriculture minister, warned the European Commission that foot-and- mouth disease might have been shipped across the channel from infected areas in the south-west. Mr Brown is expected to outline to fellow ministers measures to curb the spread of foot-and-mouth, including the killing and incineration of thousands of livestock carcasses. The UK has halted all exports of live animals, meat and dairy products. Germany has started slaughtering livestock imported from Britain as a precautionary measure to prevent an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease spreading to German cattle. In Holland, more than 3,000 animals were slaughtered over the weekend after the ministry of agriculture ordered an investigation of 18 farms.

His task is to demonstrate repeatedly and in depth that not only the emperor but even the "democratic" State has no clothes; that all governments subsist by exploitive rule over the public; and that such rule is the reverse of objective necessity. He strives to show that the existence of taxation and the State necessarily sets up a class division between the exploiting rulers and the exploited ruled. He seeks to show that the task of the court intellectuals who have always supported the State has ever been to weave mystification in order to induce the public to accept State rule and that these intellectuals obtain, in return, a share in the power and pelf extracted by the rulers from their deluded subjects.
