I feel you maybe right but if the euro and eu does collapse it wont be good for us either, but the fools at the top wont admit that things arent good and tusk said only last week that more eu was needed not less. The only hope imvho is for the german voters to kick out merkel so they drive change now rather than wait for it to fail slowly

So one of the key reasons is the low inflation rates, which the ECB is using to drive growth, so not much return on the investment.

Also we have had a massive fall in sterling, so they are buying when it's cheap.

Averages - what is an average? It's a figure that never exists in real life! Fact since the £ was originally valued in the ERM @ 1.60€ it has in the main fallen in value. The ERM rate was a theoretical rate which failed. Apart from some small periods the £ has mainly fallen in value. Why do you think the 2s6d (half crown) was called "half a dollar"? Because you once got $4 =£1! So averages are great unless you happen to be at the bottom of the trough value wise.

Average? You want to be more specific? Do you mean the mean between the highest and lowest point in the last 10 years? That would be 1.259, so we are currently at 1.169. So we are below that 'average', if that is how you define it.

I've slaughtered an animal before. Chicken, lamb and goat. It's part of life that happens more often outside the UK. I can describe the process but similar to halal except I'm Catholic. Lambs blood with spices. Awesome meal. Followed by barbeque, then all the internals for a haggis like recipe.

Anyway that was off topic.

No, not the mean. That could mean 1.50 for a year and 1.00 for nine years. But whatever. There have been times during the last ten years when the rate has been well below 1.17 and I don't recall anyone blaming that on Brexit. Next you'll be saying the central banks are wrong and all is well in the world of the Euro

Of course it does but its not that cheap against the Euro and now Article 50 has been triggered there is a little more certainty in the market even if we get no deal and the pound is rising. Why is the Euro falling?

I always thought the Euro being used by too many Countries so unlike each other wasn't a good idea.

Now that is one part of the EU I'm relieved we didn't join up to.

You're right and probably the biggest thing I've got against the EU. An unworkable ill thought out (unless you're Germany of course ) political experiment that has created misery for millions and things could only get worse when the Greeks fail to pay their debt dues in the summer

But you specifically asked what it was over the last 10 years. But yes, as you say you can pick the timeframe and average to suit whatever argument you want.

Not true actually Fabio - Islam is actually less dogmatic than Judaism in this regard, and what is classed as Halal is often down to a particular Immam's (or group thereof) interpretation of the Quran. Most Halal slaughter is actually pre-stun in the UK (as is conventional slaughter). Kosher slaughter can never be pre-stun.

Interestingly (or not) back some years ago there was a series on channel 4 exploring death - they hooked animals up to cardiac sensors during slaughter - all stunning via a massive blow (shooting, pre-stun etc) led to a massive (yet very brief) stress response in the animal, whereas throat slitting did not, the heartbeat just faded. Possibly this is due to the knife being incredibly sharp and the cut not actually hurting much..

They are stunned by whatever means, it is always the bleeding that kills them, you need the heart to still be working to bleed the carcase properly.

Halal, no I wouldn't. Kosher, yes - it can't be pre-stunned and be Kosher.

"

Merkel should hand her head in shame, that once amazing nation, is being torn apart by rampant unchecked immigration, I've heard that they are soon going to be making only halal friendly sausages with out any pork

out of interest do you know what the difference between "halal" and "kosher" is......

the answer is "a prayer"......

you kill the animal exactly the same way......

and neither should be allowed in this Country

Why? Don't you think British farmers should be able to supply meat to different religious groups?

Not when animal welfare is reduced to cater for religious reasons no.

Throat slitting has been used to slaughter animals for thousands of years, I think its perfectly acceptable way of slaughtering an animal.

Only with pre stunning, captive bolt is just as effective in killing any animal, throats only need cutting to bleed the animal, no justification whatsoever for killing without prestunning

So would you be surprised to learn that 84% of halal and kosher meat slaughtered in the UK is pre-stunned then?

See my post on this very same subject diectly under Fabios.

Halal, no I wouldn't. Kosher, yes - it can't be pre-stunned and be Kosher. "

Yes sorry, my mistake, 84% of halal meat slaughtered in the UK is pre-stunned, according to the RSPCA at least.

Supplied with animals from backstreet farms, sold in backstreet shops right?

You've gone from thinking none of it was stunned, to knowing the vast majority is stunned, but are still trying to find a justification for your objection to Halal now that your original objection has almost completely disappeared.

.

Its not done to be acceptable though is it, its done for religious practice, ones got nothing to do wth the other, what that implies is your trying to justify something for religious sake!. Now im perfectly happy just killing animals, its something i was brought up doing.

I think most farmers have bashed the odd lamb here and there with a spade, some are just born fucked and we help them along the way a bit quicker than a fox eating them, its struck me as natures pretty cruel the older i get

What do you mean "cultural practices by foreigners"? I would assume that most British halal meat is eaten by British Muslims, or are you trying to suggest that they are not really British?

Completely agree. We still do it in South America. The UK decided to move to gassing them then electrocuting them in the mass. That for me is inhumane. It's a matter of perspective.

They don't. Goats do though. But i wouldn't do it. Chicken you break their neck. But it's a single chicken per week or a cow per year. A lamb every few months. How many do slaughter houses kill?

I agree with you here. But people have to accept this was British culture too. Except the prayer. We just say grace at the dinner table. But capitalisation looked at ways to slaughter like factories. So I don't think we changed it because it's inhumane. It changed because it's inefficient.

Not long now until the whole mad process collapses. We are the leaders, the frontier people who others will follow

I feel you maybe right but if the euro and eu does collapse it wont be good for us either, but the fools at the top wont admit that things arent good and tusk said only last week that more eu was needed not less. The only hope imvho is for the german voters to kick out merkel so they drive change now rather than wait for it to fail slowly

Merkel should hand her head in shame, that once amazing nation, is being torn apart by rampant unchecked immigration, I've heard that they are soon going to be making only halal friendly sausages with out any pork

I've slaughtered an animal before. Chicken, lamb and goat. It's part of life that happens more often outside the UK. I can describe the process but similar to halal except I'm Catholic. Lambs blood with spices. Awesome meal. Followed by barbeque, then all the internals for a haggis like recipe.

Anyway that was off topic."

What i learnt as a youth is if you wanna be barbarous you need a jolly good reason for it, like a mythical God .

Coz lord help you if you just wanna beat an animal to death coz its the cheapest way to do it"

Whilst we're on about gods and shovels I've always preferred a moon spade, I find it to much easier to force in. And there's nowt so nice a wel, used personal spade

Merkel should hand her head in shame, that once amazing nation, is being torn apart by rampant unchecked immigration, I've heard that they are soon going to be making only halal friendly sausages with out any pork

out of interest do you know what the difference between "halal" and "kosher" is......

the answer is "a prayer"......

you kill the animal exactly the same way......

and neither should be allowed in this Country

Why? Don't you think British farmers should be able to supply meat to different religious groups?

Not when animal welfare is reduced to cater for religious reasons no.

Throat slitting has been used to slaughter animals for thousands of years, I think its perfectly acceptable way of slaughtering an animal.

I honestly thought you would have come up with an answer better than that.

It's true and the practice is perfectly legal in this country. If you don't like it, then petition your MP to change the law. "

The wrong aspect is that its perfectly legal to butcher an animal without stunning it first for kosher and halal but you would probably be prosecuted if you were a Christian.

So reducing animal welfare on religious beliefs in my view isn't right. It's nothing to do with writing to my MP I was asking you if you thought it was right to make animals suffer for religious reasons ?

Bang out of order, and as nobody living or dead has proved the existence past or present of any god,it's even more strange that that any religious process is allowed that permits an animal to be slaughtered in an inhumane way.
