I trust you will also include a ban on veal as this is an equally disgraceful way to treat animals.

Well said.

The indictment is that a British Prime Minister (Mr Major) signed off on this heinous practice in 1995. It has to be stopped in its tracks and excised from our so-called animal-friendly society; every day it proliferates and propagates. Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury: they're all at it. Fast food outlets pop up weekly, with the Arabic-only script to make you 'aware'. It embodies an inroad of a theocracy (sharia) into our society which is simply incompatible with Western thought. If Britain cannot act on this, it cannot act on anything with the islamic label, and our sovereignty is bust. Act now.

Why is it illegal for a pack of dogs to hunt 1 animal but perfectly legal on a daily basis to place a hook through the ankles of millions of living animals and hang them upside down and slit their throats and let them writhe in agony for up to 8 mins as they bleed to death ? All in the name of a fantasy God and religion that is alien to the Bitish way of life. If this barbaric practise were banned, along with the import of meat prepared this way, would Muslims and Jews become Vegetarian or even leave this country in droves?
christine Collier, 08.08.2011, 13:09
Can someone tell me how this barbaric practice gets past the RSPCA and Ministry of Agriculture?. We HAD very specific laws on animal slaughter. Where did they go? This subject needs lots of publicity as most people I have spoken to DO NOT KNOW about this. I have been informed - by someone who witnessed this cruel act - thas it takes some animals two whole minutes to die!

The RSPCA are put to ignominious shame by organisations such as AnimalsAustralia.org who are prepared to campaign vigorously in the public domain on this issue, and release footage, even performing undercover investigations in the Middle East and Turkey - on the EU's own doorstep. The RSPCA is not prepared to campaign or investigate even on its home turf. The issue is too 'politically and culturally sensitive'. They will collect money for doing 'good works' but not stick their necks out when our farm animals' ones are on the line. Even abseiling Greenpeace won't touch it. Appallingly, the animals are on their own in Britain - all except for several thousand 'obstreperous' and politically-incorrect nationalist Britons. Heaven forbid that they ever become compliant. Act now, while we still can.
Pete, 27.10.2011, 07:44
We need to be nagging the RSPCA at every opportunity over this. Perhaps a counter campaign whenever they are doing fund raising in the streets?
susan brown, 19.08.2011, 07:42
It seems we are again keeping the muslims happy. Animals that are halal killed suffer agony. Harvester, Beefeater and calverys all over UK serve Halal meat, people do not ask. I do and was shocked that its everywhere..Morrisons meat is all British and not Halal apart from New Zealand lamb. Write to companys and tell them you wont be eating or buying there ritualy slaughtered meat. I stopped eating meat as I couldnt beleive how widespread this is..we have lost control of our own laws on animal welfare.
Pete, 04.12.2011, 11:02
Just because it is British meat does not mean that it is not Halal.
Steve Sainsbury, 22.08.2011, 09:37
We need to push vegetarianism. Obviously halal and other ritual slaughter needs to be banned IMMEDIATELY but the whole process of meat eating is un-British. It's unhealthy, wastes huge amounts of land which we could be using to grow crops increasing our self sufficiency and to be honest we British are far too good and advanced to be killing animals for 'food'.
Khobar, 05.09.2011, 09:03
This petition needs to be transmitted far and wide. As a race, we are slightly peculiar in that we can happily sit back whilst the most atrocious acts go on around us. But be cruel to an animal and all he'll breaks out. And you know what? That's one of the things that makes this country wonderful and unique. Of course, the promotion of halal over traditional slaughter is only a small but nonetheless significant step on the road to Islamification. However, whilst it is a seemingly small battle in the war to extricate ourselves from this experiment of cultural enrichment, it could also be the one that unites the majority of people behind a cause and opens people's eyes to the way in which we are forced to live like the visitor rather than the visitor attempting to fit in with the host. I wonder how many people know they are eating halal? Not many I'd wager, as it is not labelled as such. Push this in the right way and possibly gaining the support of PETA, the FAWC and BVA as well as influential overseas lobby groups and this campaign could go through thereof. Name and shame the secret halal providers.
Christina, 28.10.2011, 11:12
Animals are transported live from New Zealand (not sure about Australia) in horrendous conditions in order for the survivors to be killed by halal slaughter in the Middle East, so although some countries may not allow ritual slaughter at home, they support it elsewhere. If we ban it here, we must not allow the shipment of live animals for ritual slaughter either

HALAL MEAT,

Halal: Funding Terrorists - ZAKAT
It is unlikely that anyone else will inform you about this.
Islamic law requires a 2.5% tax called zakat which is imposed on income and accumulated wealth.
Halal certification is done on a fee for service basis, with the fees varying with the scope and scale of the services. Certification is provided by Islamic organizations, and would not be halal if the required zakat was not paid on the fees.
What you do not know is that there are eight classes of zakat recipients, each of which gets a 1/8 share of the gross. One of those classifications is fighters in Allah's cause aka Mudihideen, aka terrorists.
When you purchase a product which is certified Halal, you contribute to terrorism.
I quote from Reliance of the Traveller, the Shari'ah handbook of the majority Sunni sect of Islam.

h8.7: The Eight Categories of Recipients
It is obligatory to distribute one's zakat among eight categories of recipients (O: meaning that zakat goes to none besides them), one-eighth of the zakat to each category. (n: In the Hanafi school, it is valid for the giver to distribute his zakat to all of the categories, some of them, or to confine himself to just one of them (al-Lubab fi sharh al-Kitab(y88), 1.155). )

h8.17: Those Fighting for Allah
The seventh category is those fighting for Allah, meaning people engaged in Islamic military operations for whom no salary has been allotted in the army roster (O: but who are volunteers for jihad without remuneration). They are given enough to suffice them for the operation, even if affluent; of weapons, mounts, clothing, and expenses (O: for the duration of the journey, round trip, and the time they spend there, even if prolonged. Though nothing has been mentioned here of the expense involved in supporting such people's families during this period, it seems clear that they should also be given it).

It is an unmitigated utter outrage that since 1995 our British so-called 'authorities' have capitulated in the face of this imported religious bigotry. They have chosen to subordinate our hard-won British ways-of-life and ethical values below those of a mob of brainwashed foreign theocratic psychotics baying for these diabolical practices. Our authorities' manifest contemptuousness for us, and for our values, smacks gob. The Mayan faith of the American Aztecs necessitated human sacrifice; even 'cynical I' cannot contemplate that Aztecs would be indulged in today's Britain, and that their code would be permitted to trump ours. Never in the gift of government to give, this free rein must now likewise be withdrawn from those who chose to lodge within our one-time beacon of decency. It is vital for us now to recover and defend this Britishness so lightly swept aside, and to show that British cultural and ethical sensitivities are far more potent, defensible and keenly-felt than ever those of the swathes of the inward-bound. Use your influence, use your networking and use your vote, and get this insidious total outrage stopped dead in its tracks. Vote, vote, vote.

For over a decade, the government of the day and the IQI (Internationalist Quasi-Intelligentsia: too dumb to recognise the path to their usurpation within their own country which they place themselves upon) have fought to keep this below the radar, just as they achieved until lately with 'honour killings' and 'forced marriages'. Well, at long long last, it's now on-screen, even if still only at the very edge. The cat's finally out of the bag, and is just starting to go 'viral' (which will keep it safe from censorship); and all those (including organisations) who have been in denial, obscuration, and dissimulation, are now going to be lit up in their proper light. Wait now for the thunder of hooves from those suddenly distancing themselves from their prior stand shoulder-to-shoulder with barbarity. Thanks be, for the thousands, and now tens of thousands of nationalists in Britain who have refused point-blank to be brow-beaten off this issue. Though a very long one, the fuse is now well-and-truly spluttering into life. Do all you can to protect it and help it on its vulnerable way. For your culture. For the animals.

I think we should ban halal meat it is a very cruel way for the animals to be slaughtered because they suffer more during the process. The RSPCA was pushing for ban in 2009. The European Commission put forward plans to ensure that animals facing slaughter are “spared any avoidable pain, distress or suffering” This would no doubt cause an outcry from both the jewish and muslim sectors of society here in the UK.

The RSPCA asked Environment Secretary Hilary Benn to take the opportunity to ban the practice.

A spokeswoman said: “The RSPCA recognises that religious practices should be respected, but we consider that scientific research has clearly demonstrated that slaughter of an ­animal without stunning can cause unnecessary suffering. This is not about religion, it’s about animal welfare.”

The Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs launched a consultation last month on the best way to implement the EU rules in Britain. The whole article can be read here:
http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/83902/EU-ban-on-inhumane-halal-and-kosher-meat

It would've been nice if we could have a Countrywide vote on this matter. Why is this what is clearly a cruel and unnecessary practice still being carried out?
rsmith, 18.11.2011, 19:28
The British RSPCA should be hanging their heads in shame because of this issue. If they had injected just 10 per cent of the resources which they pumped into their fully-successful campaign to outlaw Hunting With Dogs, into a public campaign to expose, layout and excise this heinous defilement of our pre-cultural-fragmentation justifiable reputation for humane animal treatment, then many millions of our voiceless ones would have not already gone to their hideous deaths via this unspeakably traumatic barbarity. They are content merely to 'suggest' pre-stunning, and then to accept rebuttal for anything more stringent. They set themselves up as the voice of the voiceless; if they can't speak out when there are 2 million of the barbarian advocates amongst us, just how will they speak out when there are 4, 8, 16 or 32 million of them in Britain?

and now some old fellas from Portsmouth, I think they were in the navy together, have clubbed together to go Butterfly netting in Hampshire..its a total utter disgrace and I don't care that they are Chelsea pensioners...lock them up before they start on geese or something else!!
jack oakey, 29.12.2011, 18:05
All halal Meat should be labelled so that the Label is viewable above all other labels and packaging information on all products to which it relates. An all Retailer of Halal meat should legally have to see an equivelent (Non-Halal) product by the side of it at the same cost for the same purchasable product. in size and weight.
Jostply, 02.01.2012, 17:22
In Britain, it is already illegal to carry out halal slaughter, unless it is to produce food for Muslims, so that slaughterhouses are breaking the law if they produce halal meat to be eaten by non-Muslims. However, the relevant Government department refuses to take action against these slaughterhouses because it says that it is a "sensitive issue", but I suspect that the real reason is that the culprits are all Muslims.
John Hand, 29.01.2012, 13:19
This filthy practice has to stop. Cultural 'rights' should not be allowed to include abusing animals... What's going to be next for the British people to have to swallow, allowing muslims who rape white women because they were wearing a short skirt to walk away unpunished because it's 'cultural' ????

Andrew Morris, 19.02.2012, 10:53
I was shown inside a conventional slaughterhouse when I was 18. I was disgusted but kept eating meat in moderation because it was inconvenient not to. While reading Wikipedia yesterday on the criticism of religion I came across a section on animal cruelty. It was biased towards the idea that slaughter without stunning could be humane. Looking for references to the contrary I came across a Youtube video "This is Halal", made by GAIA. What happens in this video cannot be described in words. Yet it happens all day every day. Another video shows how UK animals are routinely exported for Halal slaughter: http://www.gaia.be/nl/gaia-tv/without-care. As meat in the UK is not labelled with how it is killed, I can now only eat only pork (fish are not stunned, but neither are they tortured to death).

The fact that the Nazis banned the slaughter of (non-human) animals without stunning doesn't make it permissible. The fact that some religions are genuinely persecuted also does not make this acceptable.
It is already banned in Switzerland, Sweden, Norway and Iceland, but it is still permitted in the USA, the rest of Europe and New Zealand, supposedly on grounds of religious tolerance. However, a simpler and far more credible reason is that, so long as protests about animal rights can be ignored, the market for meat will be substantially larger if people whose religions object to humane slaughter are not excluded.

BTW I am not a fascist bigot. Please watch these videos before calling me names.

There are those in Britain today who believe this does not threaten, or involve them, so why should they give a monkey's? Notwithstanding this absence of empathy and what that says about the individuals, it matters, of course, because their people's ethical code is being swept aside, and who is anybody once their ethical code has been destroyed? But in a more distant way, it affects them directly, for what is meted out today (sharia) to our farm animals will come around and hit every one of us in the course of time. Why? Because by nurturing an alien culture even in contravention of our own ethics, we create the islamophilic comfort zone in which the alien demographic are content and can thrive. We also send out the message across the globe that our country will support alien ethics and culture even to the extent of abandoning our own to do so. Directly because of this, coupled to our in-built attachment to democratic rule-making through the balance of the vote, the resulting consequent shift in demographics will see to everything else.
