Is there anybody there?

it's exactly the same with animal welfare, mention the word halal and all those of a certain ilk suddenly become animal rights activists

TBH, I refuse buying Halal meat, I like my meat but would not enjoy it knowing that the animal was suffering before it got killed.

There's also the religious aspect of it. I don't want to eat Halal meat because I don't want to support religion or religious practices.

Apart from the fact that all 'non-religious' meat has to be stunned by law, but certain religious groups have a 'get out' clause.

yes, like the Jews

is anyone forcing you to eat Kosher or Halal meat?

Yes. As it finds it's way into the general food chain and is not labelled as such. Most people that eat meat in the UK have unknowingly eaten Halal (and to a lesser extent Kosher) meat.

There is no legal requirement for all foods that contain Halal meat to be labelled as such.

That apart from the fact I'm not Jewish and not religious.

If you feel that strongly then only eat meat that you know the provenance of

So posts agreeing with LM won't be allowed through? Are people really THAT insecure?

It's like having Vicky as a mod again

She spent years protecting Claire and not allowing any opinions she disagreed with through. Always struck me as truly pathetic. Now it's happening again.

Probably best to stick to vegetables. Like for like.

I am aware that JRA is goading people who are attempting not to interact with him

Please try to control yourself JRA

For people who don't want to interact with me, they haven't done a very good job over the last 3+ years with their trolling. You say it like I'm the only one does this.

@ jra...you've been randomly baiting for days now, desperate to get some attention and traction anywhere.

Are you feeling ignored and irrelevant, luv?

And you, Dean, McAz and banana don't bait? That why I said if anybody should be reading self-awareness books it's you.

You are all just a bunch of hypocrite, sycophant brown nosers.

Get a grip, ffs This isn't a schoolyard. People will either agree with each other, or they won't.

Do you have any idea how lame-assed a 50-something bloke looks, when he constantly scrabbles about baiting for any attention and whines about cliques and brown-nosing?

Just like with the other sociopath nutters in the clique group named above, you are all just as guilty of what you accuse others of doing.

I never moan about cliques and brown-nosing. Ever. Are you sure your entire post wasn't meant for Murasaki?

Anyway, you finally got what you wanted - the foothold you've been desperate for this week. But no more attention from me for now ...

Vicky was an excellent Mod. Please don't continue this abusive line.

We both give our valuable time supporting vegetables.

It might be because LM was proven to have posted as a guest numerous times, so any positive posts are probably from herself...

Yes, probably - keeps the place ticking over in between serious stuff.
