Until 2019, TBE was considered only to be an imported disease to the United Kingdom. In that year, evidence became available that the TBEV is likely circulating in the country1,2 and a first “probable case” of TBE originating in the UK was reported.3 In addition to TBEV, louping ill virus (LIV), a member of the TBEV-serocomplex, is also endemic in parts of the UK. Reports of clinical disease caused by LIV in livestock are mainly from Scotland, parts of North and South West England and Wales.4

In early September 2018, two cases of monkeypox were reported in the United Kingdom (UK), diagnosed on 7 September in Cornwall (South West England) and 11 September in Blackpool (North West England). The cases were epidemiologically unconnected and had recently travelled to the UK from Nigeria, where monkeypox is currently circulating. We describe the epidemiology and the public health response for the first diagnosed cases outside the African continent since 2003.

In Agricultral Statistics, United Kingdom, 1974, the area of land devoted to vegetables grown in the open for human consumption is given as 187 500 ha. This amounted to some 4% of the tillage land in the UK, and along with similar areas of sugar beet and maincrop potatoes would appear to offer significant scope for the utilization of associated by-products as feed for livestock. The range of such crops produced in the UK is quite wide, but climatic and market pressures will influence actual cropping from year to year. Relevant details for the United Kingdom are set out in Table 1, and it will be seen that in 1974 England and Wales accounted for 95, 78 and 100%, respectively, of the areas of outdoor vegetables, maincrop potatoes and sugar beet grown in the UK. In the following, therefore, the discussion will be concentrated on the problems of production and distribution of vegetable and arable by-products. Similar problems of distribution will no doubt occur in other countries as well.

A Company

This chapter sets out who can apply for a winding-up order and when a winding-up order can be made where a company is already subject to an insolvency procedure. This chapter discusses the insolvency procedures under the law of England and Wales, other parts of the United Kingdom and outside the UK. A supervisor of a company voluntary arrangement (CVA) approved under IA 1986, part 1, may petition for the compulsory winding up of the company, and the court may appoint the supervisor to be liquidator of the company. IA 1986, part 1, is applied with modifications to building societies by the Building Societies Act 1986. When a company is in administration, no petition for it to be wound up may be presented without the administrator’s consent or the court’s permission, unless it is presented for the purpose of proceedings under the default rules of a recognized body in a financial market.

This chapter reviews developments leading to the enactment of the 2015 Modern Slavery Act in England and Wales and parallel legislation in Northern Ireland and Scotland. It analyses the response of the UK government to growing pressure for legislation, and the failings of the actual legislation put in place, including a comparison with some key elements in its Scottish and Northern Irish counterparts. Despite claims to be world-leading, the Modern Slavery Act has already been found to be deficient in many key areas such as continuing protection for victims and linking slavery and immigration legislation, and is considered to be in need of substantial reform.

Infundibular caries (IC) is an important equine dental disorder that can cause premature wear, fractures and apical infection of affected maxillary cheek teeth. No accurate prevalence values for IC are available for UK horses. The feeding of high levels of concentrates is believed to increase its prevalence, but no objective information is available on such possible environmental risk factors. The aims of the study were to document the prevalence of IC in UK horses, assess its distribution and severity between infundibulae and teeth in affected horses and examine for potential risk factors for its development. Using well-defined criteria for grading and recording IC, 25 experienced personnel across the UK completed a questionnaire on their patients. Frequency of IC occurrence was compared between individual teeth and infundibulae using McNemar’s tests. Potential risk factors for IC presence were examined using univariable logistic regression prior to building a multilevel multivariable model. Of 706 horses examined, 45.5 per cent had IC, which was most commonly present and most severe in the Triadan 09s (>10>08>06>07>11), with 13.4 per cent of all rostral and 10 per cent of all caudal infundibulae affected. The prevalence of IC was significantly associated with increasing age; the lowest IC prevalence was found in South West England.

AbstractThis Perceptual Dialectology (PD) study asked residents of Cardiff, Wales, about their perceptions of English in the United Kingdom (UK). In addition, because face to face exposure to dialect variation has rarely been included as a variable in PD studies, participants were asked about their travel experience to ascertain whether this might influence their responses to a PD map task. Participants’ responses to the map task were analyzed using ArcGIS to create composite maps. Results show that these Cardiffians perceive “dialect or regional” speech boundaries to be located around major cities in England and Wales but also southwest Wales. Composite maps and polygon counts suggest that the more traveled respondents have a more nuanced perception of dialect regions than those who claim to travel less, suggesting that travel experience may influence PD participants’ responses to map tasks.
