I presume that non stun slaughter is not being used on my pigs.
The UK has gone mad not the world and they wonder why we protested with our brexit leave vote.Am I reading this right,because the consumer may not want 70% of the meat because they don’t agree with the slaughter method or have their own religious reasons ,thus causing the 30% to become expensive ,the excuse is we antisemitism so we must eat this meat or be accused.The worlds gone mad,where is freedom of choice put a damn label on the packet and let the consumer decide.
Reduce their costs???? You're having a laugh, they only eat the cheap bits. The higher value hinds are sold onto the Gentile market. Unlabeled as such.That is exactly what it is saying. Because they don't eat the rear half of the animal (anything past the 12th rib or so) this is the meat that gets past onto the UK Meat Market as unlabelled unstunned Meat and they expect the non-Jewish consumers to eat the parts they reject because of their religious beliefs to help reduce their costs!! It has been going on for ages and this is why people have started to say enough is enough!!
But for them to argue against honest labelling by playing the Anti-Semetism Card is a joke but guess what it works because this Government and the EU always cave in to them because they don't want that card thrown at them.
And even both claimed it would stigmatise Halal or Kosher food hence the Islamophobic Card being played aswell!!
Hence why in 2014 our UK Parliament voted against Labelling such meat/poultry!
But why can't Musilms and Jews have meat processed for themselves ONLY for themselves as per DEFRA Legislation which states they can have meat slaughtered for themselves as long it is INTENDED for Consumption of Muslims and Jews? Why is it being over-produced and forced onto the mainstream meat markets for ALL consumers without adequate labelling?
I use a company called Lamb2Ewe simply because of their honesty and openess.

They clearly advertise all the essential information on their website including whether Religious Slaughter was used (which they clearly do not use). They added that information after consultations with consumers as they were initially reluctant to disclose on their web site because they didn't want to be labelled. They saw demand was there and tapped into that market so now consumers can have quality Lamb/Beef & Poultry without Religious Slaughter methodology, full traceabilty and accountability which is what consumers wanted. Their business is starting to thrive and they are expanding (into Beef & Poultry) with Animal Welfare first and foremost, followed by quality and locality.
You can speak with them this weekend as they are at the Honley Show 8 Jun 2019:

Nail on headHow come a MINORITY can change the rules of slaughtering our animals to suit religious beliefs.
Oh! perhaps it's because we don't give a toss about the lambs we rear as long as we get a better price.
