I have introduced a bill to introduce compulsory labelling of halal and kosher meat.
Consumers have a right to know what they are eating. Yet every day people are consuming halal and kosher meat without knowing it - that’s meat where the animal has its throat slit and often is not stunned before slaughter.
At its heart, this is a straightforward proposal built on consumer choice, animal welfare and transparency. It is not about banning halal or kosher meat but about the compulsory labelling of it, which is currently only voluntary, so as to ensure consumers know what they are buying.
What began as a limited religious exemption has become an increasingly significant part of meat production.
@veiledleaks If you go to a country to live and then actively fight/work against that country you are an enemy. If you are not in uniform you are a spy and therfore should be treated as such.
When is it going to occur to the British government and all left wing anti colonial reperations dillusunists that if we keep going on this trajectory it will be a matter of decades before islamist have colonised the UK and have in their possession nuclear weapons?
🚨 LABOUR COUNCILLOR WALKS FREE FROM COURT AFTER POSSESSING THE WORST INDECENT IMAGES OF CHILDREN
A Labour Councillor has been given a 12-month suspended sentence for possessing indecent images of children deemed category A considered the worst.
Tom Dewey a Labour Councillor for Hackney has avoided jail after admitting possessing indecent images of children.
Recorder Jonathan Ashley-Norman handed down a 12-month suspended sentence, he said: Your actions have had a devastating impact on your life and your closest family.��
He gave him credit for an early guilty plea
He also ordered devices to be forfeited, told Dewey to pay £500 costs and put him on a 10-year Sexual Harm Prevention Order, which will restrict his contact with children.
Thomas Dewey, who was elected as a Labour councillor for De Beauvoir ward, was arrested by detectives from the National Crime Agency who seized laptops and tablets at his home in Hertford Road in Hackney, just days before May’s local elections last year.
He had a “huge problem” with looking at indecent images of children from the internet for his own use, Wood Green Crown Court heard.
Described by party activists as “ambitious”, he had worked at Hackney Council for nearly two years as a support officer for the Mayor and Cabinet office and for a consultancy advising on planning.
He was the branch secretary for the De Beauvoir ward for Labour and had spent years campaigning for the party in Hackney.
Last month, the 36-year-old admitted a charge of making five category A indecent images of children, a further charge of making 41 category B indecent images, as well as making 203 category C indecent images of children.
Images are graded with category A considered the worst.
Dewey, now of Hampshire, also admitted a charge of possessing 78 extreme pornographic images of children – an act which results, or is likely to result, in serious injury to a person and having 1,523 prohibited images of children in his possession.
The maximum sentence for the most serious charge is five years, depending on the number of images.
Details of the images were not read out in court, but prosecutor Margia Mostafa said the content of the Category A images “are highly serious.”
The starting point for the first charge is two years in prison but the steps Dewey has taken, along with his early guilty plea and remorse saw that cut to 12 months, suspended for two years.
He received an additional six months for charge two, three months for charge three, six months for charge four, and six months for charge five, all suspended for two years and to run concurrently.
Dewey also has to do 150 hours’ community service and 40 days of a “rehabilitation activity”.
,two days before his arrest at home in Hackney where he was “the sole occupant.”
The NCA seized two laptops, two tablets and a hard drive and Dewey was arrested and cautioned at 7.03am.
They had identified four “CyberTipline” reports which has user ID to a google drive and Dewey had uploaded indecent images of children to his personal account.
Dewey was elected as a Labour councillor for the first time in the May 2022 council elections and resigned days later, triggering a by-election last July.
Labour, which has a majority on the council, narrowly defeated the Green candidate in the by-election.
The charges have caused upset amongst Labour campaigners who were unaware of the arrest until this summer.
@Iromg did you see the story about Tom Dewey the Labour Counciler caught with category A child abuse images? Walked from court. Where is the ITV documentary on these disgusting creatures ?
@visegrad24 This poor guy, it was not hos fault and now he has to live with the knowledge he killed someone. That is horrible. I have zero sympathy for the idiot who decided to pray in the road. How about her blood results, anyone check those? Stop protecting the Islamists.
@AlexCollierQA Yes. These dickheads started something and our lads are finishing it. When I moved to London the Met would happily punch you in the face for being a dickhead. Shame that changed as it felt much safer then.
@JaydaBF "Reasonable force" is the phrase and action to employ in these situations. Companiesneed to fully back up staff. It wouldn't take long to stop it if we all stood together. If you are a man and you see a situation, stand with the shop staff, show force and intolerance.
@TRobinsonNewEra I do not live in the UK anylonger. However I can tell you from first hand experience people arpund the world are aware of what is happening in the UK. I was in Singapore, the Taxi driver asked me. He raised the subject. Same in Taiwan. Everyone is watching the 2 tier treatment.
@metalshark@ibis Oddly enough the tap on the sink only delivered scolding hot water and the shower had a hair trigger between boiling alive and freezing cold.
It was an experience!
In Singapore and find myself booked into @Ibis Styles Macpherson. Room is not exactly clean. No sound on the only channel worth watching on the TV and the wiring is suspect at best. Thankfully only one night!
@Keir_Starmer If you genuinly believe this is true then I think you need to have a psychological assessment. You are the most dispised PM in history (Burnham will take the crown soon enough). Both you ans Blair should be in court for treason. Labour is disgraceful.
