Halal meat on 17:49 - Sep 24 with 2110 views | Dr_Winston | Should be illegal in the UK, along with Kosher butchery and any form of animal handling that doesn't work to the highest humane levels. I'd include factory farming in that too. |  |

Halal meat on 18:02 - Sep 24 with 2062 views | trampie | Both Halal and Kosher slaughter without stunning should be banned in the UK. The Muslims can go to Muslim countries and the Jews can go to Israel if they don't like it, barbaric practice. [Post edited 24 Sep 18:32]

Wasn’t even a religious practice originally, the method of bleeding whilst alive was effective at preserving the meat for longer in hot dry countries as the bleeding and subsequent desiccation prevented/slowed down bacterial growth. An animal killed by say a blow to the head would rot a lot quicker. It’s harder to remove the blood from a dead animal than a live one because coagulation occurs almost instantly. |  |

Halal meat on 21:20 - Sep 24 with 1823 views | Gwyn737 | Completely unnecessary in my opinion. I’m also very uncomfortable about stories where shops and restaurants have it as their default position without making it very public they’re doing so. I’d like to avoid it at all costs but I’m not sure I have the information to do so. [Post edited 24 Sep 21:44]

That is appalling. Can they explain why? Can they be held to account? Is there an alternative? |  |

Don’t upset those who come here from foreign lands & don’t worry about those who have British values. It’s the country we now live in. |  | |  |

I think it's a option every day as opposed to all meat served. Down with me it's available as a 'special diet' so provided for individual children on request. |  | |  |

Then that’s really poor. I don’t like that at all. |  | |  |

I would guess that it is probably prejudicial not to provide dietary needs dependant on religious requirement. |  | |  |

But what if persons of a particular religious persuasion objected that it was against their beliefs to be forced to consume meat from animals that had been slaughtered inhumanely? Clearly, we do not have the resources to cater for too many religious factions, and it would seem to make sense to go with the preferences of the majority population, possibly with one alternative. The current policy would seem to support the argument that the wishes of the majority population are not paramount. |  | |  |

Indeed so, and it will be interesting to see if people remember decisions like this when the Senedd elections come around in May. Of course, Plaid are just as woke as Welsh Labour. |  | |  |

Special diets seem to be getting more and more prevelant. Around 10 years ago there was one hot dinner and one pudding. Today in my place, the options were: 1. Main meal 2. Vegetarian 3. Vegan 4. Gluten free 5, Dairy free 6. Hot and Cold pudding choice. There were around 12 children wearing allergy lanyards because they don’t ear specific foods. The kitchen is also nut free. No requests for halal or kosher but could be requested. |  | |  |

It's not compulsory its a choice, whether that is right or wrong is another thing. But by current law you have to offer the choice. |  | |  |

But we have established that there is no choice in Swansea schools; all meat is halal. |  | |  |
