Halal horror house as undercover video exposes cruel abattoir filled with terrified animals

I got an e-mail from the animal sanctuary directing me to this Sunday Mirror report. As it is the left-wing, Hope not Hate funding, Labour party supporting Mirror group note the assertions that
1) Jewish Kosher meat is also produced,
2) Imans are shocked that this is not the proper Islamic way and
3) traditional English slaughterhouses are no less cruel.
However I fully expect Tell MAMA to have chiding words to say to the dhimmi Mirror on the subject of islamophobia tomorrow.

In a slaughterhouse awash with blood, a frightened bullock ’s eyes widen in fear as the machinery it is trapped in raises its head so a knife-wielding butcher can hack open its neck. Seconds later, as the animal kicks out in pain and panic, a bolt is shot through its brain to stop it injuring workers who yank it up upside down onto a hook, blood gushing from its twitching carcass.

In another area of the killing floor, cameras capture sheep being ferried along a metal pen where a worker casually lifts their heads and slashes their throats. They are so distressed as they begin bleeding to death they wriggle over the sides and have to be hauled back in, legs flailing, and piled up at the end as they slowly die.

This chilling footage was taken during an investigation into a slaughterhouse which supplied Morrisons. 

The Food ­Standards Agency was so horrified by the footage shot at Simply Halal’s abattoir that it has closed down its operation pending an inquiry.

The graphic video, made by an animal sanctuary, horrified even experts and regulators in religious ritual slaughter. . . And this footage appears to show the slaughterhouse not following the strict rules of Islamic Law. These state the slaughterer must be a sane adult Muslim and they must say the name of God before making the cut – this did not happen.

The footage was shot at the company’s abattoir in Banham, Norfolk, over eight days in February and March.

Simply Halal prides itself on being the “only dedicated halal abattoir in the United Kingdom for Beef & Lamb which is 100 per cent committed to supplying 100 per cent Non Stun Halal meat & meat products”.Simply Halal prides itself on being the “only dedicated halal abattoir in the United Kingdom for Beef & Lamb which is 100 per cent committed to supplying 100 per cent Non Stun Halal meat & meat products”. 

The company’s website adds: “At Simply Halal there is no compromise, all of our products are 100 per cent Stun Free Halal. We are proud to supply the Muslim community.”

The firm switches its operations once a week to produce kosher meat for the Jewish market.

A Food Standards Authority spokesman said: “We are halting slaughter operations at Simply Halal pending further investigation. A spokesman for Morrisons said they no longer supplied by Simply Halal but when asked when this stopped they did not comment.
