| We won't eat halal meat, say MPs and peers who reject demands to serve it at Westminster |
| 2012-01-01 |
| The Palace of Westminster has rejected demands to serve halal meat in its restaurants. Muslim MPs and peers have been told they cannot have meat slaughtered in line with Islamic tradition because the method -- slitting an animal's throat without first stunning it -- is offensive to many of their non-Muslim colleagues. The stance has infuriated some parliamentarians who have eaten meat in the Palace's 23 restaurants and cafes, having been assured that it was halal. Lord Ahmed of Rotherham said: 'I did feel misled. I think a halal option should be made available.' |

| #10 UK children have to eat halal, so as to accomodate the supremacist cult. Halal certification means only that it was done under supervision of an imam. The real issue is: halal slaughter. That involves slicing the throat of an animal, and hanging it while it bleeds to death. Civilized cattle ranchers kill instantly by running hot electrodes at the creature's temple. Local ranchers shoot the animal in the head with a high velocity 22 cal (instant but the bullet makes the brain inedible) |

| #7 "Lord Ahmed of Rotherham". That title just makes me cringe. Oh! I don't know, Anonymoose. Nazir is one of the lads. Did I mention that he used to work down at the market, selling gear that "fell off the back of a truck" All he had to do was organise Muslims to vote Labour and Tony Blair made him the first Muslim Lord. Beats flogging gear down at market,eh! Just to show how reasonable he is about this issue all he is asking for is that the kuffars submit themselves to Sharia law, instead of English Law and just make Andy Choudary Prime Minister for life. What could be more reasonable? |
