Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

lmao sorry but I find this so funny

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

I found the horse meat funny too.

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

And me but as I said I like horse meat anyway

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

I don't really see it being an issue ,as mentioned in the other thread if they where that devout they would not be in prison .I'm afraid this will just encourage a lot of prisoners to all of a sudden be devout Muslims and get loads of compensation

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

We got another Muslim thread?

We'll probably have a protest or two as well.

can't they just say it's like the nuts thing. "may contain traces of nuts"?

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

Bet you they have a holy jihad now against the prisons and anyone else they can think of just in case.

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

Well, some jews as well


does me

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

And me :)

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat

So everyone in prison is guilty right? And no one has ever made the wrong decision?

Have you ever heard also of people going to prison for downloading copyright material?

you should think before you type.

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

Pretty much yes ,making the wrong decision doesn't make a person innocent

A minor crime but still a crime and not sure if anyone has actually gone to jail for downloading music/films in the UK

I did ,long and hard ,i decided that i couldn't give a rats about prisoners food .Some of the prisoners should feel lucky they get fed at all.Quite frankly it's a fuss over nothing and we should be more concerned about what law abiding citizens are eating

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

Best not sorry :)

Its only really car boot sellers of copyrighted material running the risk I believe

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

What about those that have been released years later because they're innocent?
they didn't make any decisions. the people who put them in there made the decisions for them.


TV licences and not having one carries a custodial sentence.

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

Does inciting people to riot have a custodial sentence ;)

Anyway, i hope they find out who has been telling porkies about what meat was in the pies.

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

Yes. why. is that what you're doing again? :)

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

No it doesn't ,it carries a maximum penalty of £1000

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

And not paying the fine can put you in jail.

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

exactly,and forcing you to eat pork as an extra special punishment

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

Not at all, but i think you should be worried and dont worry they have pies in jail. :LOL:

so you can end up in jail having meat pies with pork in it :LOL:

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

ERR hold on a mo' ,i can see traces of yumminess in that pie and as a devout grumpyguts i am deeply offended

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

That picture is making me :drool:

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

You don't have to be devout, or even religious to have a problem with any pig products..

I have two friends who are both meat eaters, both not even Muslim but still get ill at the thought of eating pork or bacon.

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

You and I both know it will be all about religion don't we ,it will be all about certain religions and lack of respect thereof and then how much compensation they can get

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

Pork is prohibited in the Bible in both Leviticus and Deuteronomy, seems to get ignored ;)

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

not by some jews it aint;)

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

I love pork scratchings.

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

I prefer to scratch myself ;)

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

And how about the fact that the companies supplying the food say it's one thing when it turns out to be something else

That's the real issue here

Anyway I'm pretty sure that some 'devout' people of all religions including Christians have committed crimes for which they've ended up in prison.

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

Yes it is ,the last thing i am concerned about is prisoners getting traces of the wrong type of meat ,it will just be an excuse for them to con some money by way of compensation

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

How come they can detect small traces of pork in the pies shipped into HM Prisons but not the knives, files, and drugs that usually get smuggled in?

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

:clap:

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

this is just animalist

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

Regardless of whether the issue is religion or not, the newspapers will report it as being religious.

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

Well as it stands it is all about religion because of the Halal part

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

So they have just figured out that getting food supplied by the lowest bidder might mean that it isn't 100% prime cuts of dead animal. Or even 90% of the correct dead animal.

Although to be honest it happening to prisoners makes me chuckle. Until I think about the hordes of lawyers getting ready to screw more taxpayers money out the public for their clients.

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

Thats the UK for you :)

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

But that's only because they didn't have bacon sandwiches in those days. :D

Anyway, maybe the prospect of 'dodgy' food might deter some people from committing crimes. ;)

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

I've been having a ponder, and honestly can't ever remember seeing an (obvious) muslim eating a pie or pastie, or pies and pasties on sale in their ethnic shops.

Maybe it's because a lot of pastry is made with (pork) lard as shortening?

Re: 'Traces of pork DNA' found in Halal prison meat
 

Maybe because the reason the 'ethnic' shops exist is to sell food that isn't widely available in the UK. Same business model as this http://www.britishcornershop.co.uk/
