What the petition asks
Many British people are very concerned that the Meat & Foods they are purchasing are from Slaughter Houses carrying out the cruel & Barbaric cutting of the neck of our Farm Animals. I.E. Pigs " Cows" Sheep & Chicken.
Before British people buy food from their local Supermarket : they need to know if the meat they purchase was stunned 1st or Halal slaughtered. Also all packaging should be labeled telling the British public exactly how the meat they buy was killed. & Halal Accreditation needs to be explained on the packaging.
