No ifs. No buts. No exceptions. Some will frame this as the oppression of religious minorities, so let me be clear, animal welfare is more important than religion. It is that simple. Religions will simply have to adapt as they have done before. I would argue that if your religion cannot find the ability to… Continue reading Campaign Against Halal Part 30

A teacher has been suspended for showing his class an anti-Islam cartoon, as hundreds of protesters gathered at the school yesterday. Angry crowds descended on Batley Grammar School, near Dewsbury, West Yorkshire, amid allegations the image was shown during a religious studies lesson. Protesters claimed the cartoon shown to pupils was the same one previously… Continue reading Andrew Doyle on Free Speech Part 6

The reason animals can be slaughtered without stunning is an absurd religious exemption provided by ineffective lawmakers. There is simply no point in prohibiting unstunned slaughter if an exemption is given to the very people who want to carry on slaughtering without stunning. This is political trickery by slippery politicians who want the public to… Continue reading Campaign Against Halal Part 29
Problems with Diversity Part 78
A word some social justice warriors claim carries ‘nasty racial underpinnings’. US fashion editor and blogger Katie Dupere says ‘exotic’ is ‘a major verbal micro-aggression’. https://vk.com/video503532632_456240785 [user-submitted-posts]

Use of this braided hairstyle by white people is said to represent cultural appropriation. When the designer Marc Jacobs was criticised for using a group of predominantly white models wearing dreadlocks in a show, he argued — not unreasonably — that this was similar to black women straightening their hair. This was met with further… Continue reading Problems with Diversity Part 77

As a child in the ‘80s, during the height of the testing-cosmetics-on-animals scandals, I was horrified at how so many human beings could so callously disregard the intense suffering of animals. I am still horrified today. Testing cosmetics on animals was completely unnecessary, it caused suffering that was entirely preventable; just like the suffering unstunned… Continue reading Campaign Against Halal Part 27

After the British teacher showed the cartoons, about two dozen protesters gathered outside the school to denounce the move on Thursday. Local media said more people continued to demonstrate near the school on Friday. The school in West Yorkshire, where there is a large Muslim community, has apologised. “The school unequivocally apologises for using a… Continue reading Andrew Doyle on Free Speech Part 5

94 Million animals suffered needlessly as a result of non-stun slaughter in the UK in 2018. Non-stun slaughter is Illegal, but religious Halal and Kosher practices are exempt. Eat meat? You’ve probably eaten non-stunned slaughtered animals! It needs to Stop! https://vk.com/video503532632_456240773 [user-submitted-posts]

A debate is growing in the United Kingdom over whether schools should show controversial images of the Prophet Muhammad to children, after a teacher at a state high school in northern England did so and was later suspended. The image shown at Batley Grammar School was reportedly taken from the same series of caricatures first… Continue reading Andrew Doyle on Free Speech Part 4
