Discussion
@Paul , it's impossible to defend such barbaric ritualistic cruelty, which is why the supporters had nothing of any substance to say.
Although the debate was well mannered and all contributors spoke with passion, the supporters of non-stun/halal/kosher slaughter did not make any sense, contradicted themselves and each other. Not banning this evil is simply wrong, it has no place in our country. Starmer’s weak government has even let animals down now.
@Paul and @Steve I don't believe you're truly concerned with animal welfare. I think you're just pretending to give a damn about animal welfare at the point of slaughter because it happens to suit your anti-islamic views. @Steve Decades of animal welfare progress? What are your views on horse racing then? Badger culling? Illegal fox hunting? What are your views on animal farming in ...
It's another step backwards for a country that's in decline. Decades of animal welfare progress all for nothing.
Good debate, but same old government line at the end. The government would like all animals to be stunned before slaughter but also respect religious beliefs. So the government allows the animal cruelty to continue. DISGRACEFUL.
POLICE have made an arrest following a series of burglaries from schools in Dawlish. A suspect was located and arrested over the weekend, the Coastal and Rural Teignbridge Neighbourhood Team said.
