Closed halal & kosher

Closed on

Outlaw Ritual slaughter (halal & kosher) and halal & kosher meat sale in the UK unless clearly labeled in food outlets.

Responsible department: Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs

Just as Jewish and Islamic religious groups enjoy and demand clear food labeling, we demand reciprocal food labeling arrangements to ensure we are not unwittingly supporting ritual slaughter by purchasing unlabelled meat products that include ritually slaughtered meat byproducts.
