Should Halal meat be banned in the UK?
As the header says, Should Halal meat be banned in the UK?
I feel it should it is cruel and causes the animal unnecessary suffering.
Plus the government looked a ban, but backed down.
Other countries have banned it.
I've made the poll private.

Does stunning always work? And the bolt through the skull?

Well the animal is stung up by its ankles and its throat slit and bleeds to death.
Stunning doesn't work 100%, but it comes close, and a better option.
Ironical the only meat I eat cannot be Halal.

I don't agree with religious exemptions on laws of any kind. If there's a reason for the law, then how can exemptions be allowed?
The animal slaughter exemptions also apply to Kosher slaughter.

In the abattoir I visited pigs were hung 3 to a hook gassed then their throats slit. All the way through they were kicking and screaming. The lairage was close enough un stunned animals heard the screams and were terrified. How humane is that hey ?

Re: Should Halal meat be banned in the UK?
Halal and Kosher meats are technically already illegal as the animals are not stunned before slaughter, but they get to play the religion card.
And even if they were made illegal, there would just be even more backstreet slaughterhouses opening-up.
