We Demand CCTV (monitored) in all UK & EU Abattoirs.
Legislate urgently that CCTV to be installed; available on demand to UK RSPCA and all EU Govts. Humane Inspectors also on demand. This facility must be serviced & paid for by Halal and traditional Meat Industry Abattoirs equally. Any Contravention or collusion to conceal cruelty is to to be dealt with through the legitimate Courts, incurring major staff penalties and company closures. As a humane society this is the least we should expect and demand in the 21st century.
Why is this important?
The inhumane suffering and wilful torture of living creatures due to unmonitored mass-slaughter is a major negligence by EU and UK Govt. The involvement of the RSPCA and similar ethical EU agencies is paramount.
The current behaviour (often secretly filmed) shows vicious attitudes in many of the ill-educated slaughterhouse staff toward sentient animals. This is totally UNACCEPTABLE!
