Whatever the ins and outs of this and whether people care or not, the fact is that Halal-style slaughter would never have been countenanced had it not been for religious requirements in the same way that Sikh motor cyclists would not have been provided with an exemption from the crash helmet law but for religious requirements.

All I can add to this discussion is to say to our politicians in Westminster WAKEUP before it is TOO late the insidious carpet of Islam is increasing its speed & its claws are already embedded in our society Winston Churchill's prophetic words of many years ago have already sadly come true.
i am sure he wasn't, however the encroachment across the globe of Islam is not necessaries to be welcomed, but quite frankly its too late. our politicians are PC, they won't stand up for the people who say they don't like this,
they welcome all comers, and wonder why the electorate don't vote or vote UKIP and the like

When I was in Cairo I saw a man slitting the throat of a goat tied up outside a shed. That was bad enough but there was another goat tied up right next to it getting his friend's blood sprayed over him.
