Britain winning battle on FMD

The British Government is cautiously optimistic that it's winning the battle against foot-and-mouth disease.

It's now two weeks since the last confirmed case was recorded, although ministers there are warning the odd case could still crop up.

Farmers are being warned not to drop their guard, and to keep inspecting their animals on a regular basis.

Ireland was declared foot and mouth free some time ago, however precautions are still in place.
