HALAL AND THE WEST.

Over hundreds of years we in this country have evolved a system of animal welfare that leads the world. This extends even to the slaughterhouse where we attempt to ease the stress on animals that face slaughter so that we can eat meat. The RSPCA and veterinary authorities have joined together to produce these strict rules and regulations and we rightly are shocked when we see these rules infringed by inhumane behaviour from staff at these establishments. That the animal dies and is butchered leads some to say it doesn't matter what the treatment for the result is the same. Well it matters to me and it should to all of us. These rules prior to the massive influx of Muslims from across the globe were secular and were unconcerned by religious considerations. Now that appears to have changed. Now we eat meat that has been slaughtered under Halal rules on a regular basis and without our knowledge and even seem cowered to enquire about it at our supermarkets and fast food outlets. This may be understandable. What is not is us, civilised white English people, frequenting establishments that we KNOW are Halal and giving them our custom. I fail to comprehend folc who continually bemoan the deterioration of our culture but then contribute to it! A nation and its people should be judged by how it treats its weak. This extends to animals who are the weakest of all. Glib jokes you may make as a defence against what you know to be wrong but it doesn't alter the facts. To have standards in this day and age may be an old fashioned concept but is still something we should aspire to. Without our custom these places would not exist. We perpetrate their very existence. Through our using them we are responsible. Our battle against Islam, to many, falls at the first hurdle of not giving custom to these kebab shops that litter our High streets. Some warrior. Some battle. You should hang your heads in shame.
