An HGV driver who delivers live animals to abattoirs describes a sadistic, vile & depraved cruelty. Halal slaughter should be banned immediately.
"David I need to remain anonymous to keep my job as I work for a large multinational that are very PC/woke and me getting involved in any sort of discussion like this would cost me my job.
"I’ve worked previously as a HGV driver delivering livestock to slaughterhouses. In the build up to Ramadan the company I worked for made sheep deliveries to halal slaughterhouses up and down the country.
"We’d always deliver after dark and the loading bays would be full of Muslim men and boys who’d come to choose their sheep. They’d be climbing up the outside of the trailer to get a look in and try pick which one they wanted. They’d be shouting and screaming whilst banging on the trailer to try get the sheep to move around.
"Drivers would always do their best to try stop them as the animals are still in their care whilst on the vehicle. Once the trailer door was open the men would be jumping in the trailers trying to grab their sheep and mark it. We’d often end up physically removing the men and a few times it ended up in fists flying.
"Once the sheep had been herded into the slaughterhouse pens the real barbarism would begin. After waiting hours and hours with no access to water the Sheep were punched and kicked by the men and boys and forced onto the waiting line to be slaughtered. The whole place is absolute chaos with people screaming and shouting and the sound of dying animals.
"Once they reached the front of the queue there’d be an imam sat there reciting prayers as the slaughter man grabbed the animal by the head, spun it round and slit its throat. It would then be hung upside down on an overhead hook conveyor and transported for butchering as it was still bleeding and writhing around in agony.
"It’s not an instant death by any means. The supposed “vet” whose job is to maintain welfare standards is nearly always a friend of the owners and is also Muslim who’s paid and simply turns a blind eye. The whole place is a complete blood bath. Zero welfare standards, zero compassion.
"In comparison we used to deliver pigs to slaughterhouses and the welfare levels are immense. Animals were herded without any physical contact at all, if you so much as touched an animal the vet would have you and your company banned from the site immediately and reported to the relevant authorities too.
"The animals are slaughtered with a single bolt to the back of the head. It’s instant and pain free.
"I just thought I’d give some inside information as to what goes on.
"Halal meat is vile and it needs to be banned."
"Neither I nor any #Bull wants you to fight it. But if you insist I hope it defends itself. Fuck ANYONE who tortures an animal for fun" ~ @RickyGervais.

If you can work, you must work. We need a safety net for those who genuinely need it, but we do NOT need a welfare system that is being industrially abused.
Make work pay - raise the personal allowance to 20k.
No fit person should be better off claiming benefits than actually working.
Clamp down on the clever scroungers who are running rings around the incompetent DWP. Fraud means fraud.
Cut ALL translation and interpretation costs for foreign languages.
In 2023 - 816,036 DWP calls were translated. If you can't speak English (obvious exceptions aside), then you should not be able to claim benefits.
In 2023, £726 million was spent on refugee households claiming Universal Credit in 2023. What is the real cost for all foreign nationals claiming benefits from the British taxpayer? A figure I have been pressing the Prime Minister for...
The welfare system needs total and fundamental reform - it is NOT working for the decent British taxpayer.
@Steve_Laws_ When I signed the tally 2 hrs ago was at 585k... Now it's over 780k. With a deadline in May 25 and the energy behind this the tally will be welling the millions by 2025... As others have said egg on face for Starmer at least...
@PolitlcsUK How about focusing on NHS from the real angles, by fixing unlawful immigration, health tourism which is never claimed back from the origin country, expose wastefulness and prevent it, in every function on the NHS and only then can you try and fix it.
