Australia is a predominately Christian nation, with a high regard for animal welfare.

Islamic Ritual Slaughter (also called Halal Slaughter), is the barbaric slaughter of livestock, requiring an animal to be killed facing Mecca, and having an TWO Islamic slaughter persons on the kill floor. One MUST bless the animal to the Islamic God; Allah, and the other, slices the animal's throat - ALL WHILE IT IS CONCIOUS, feeling terrible distress and immense pain !

Abattoirs across the nation are being granted "special dispensation" to allow Ritual Slaughter, with no prior Bolt-Stun to render the animal unconscious or brain-dead where it would feel no pain !

This abhorrent practice goes unchallenged and has NO PLACE in a civilised society, where animal rights & welfare must be at the forefront !

We seek to make Bolt-Stun Slaugter mandatory for ALL Abattoirs in Australia, WITHOUT EXCEPTION !
