and most animals for halal meat are stunned before being cut nd bled.
Not to my knowledge.
Lancashire council "banned" this practice>https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lancashire-41775883
Then this meeting was held
"A Muslim body has criticised a council ban on unstunned halal meat, claiming stunning animals is "inhumane".
Councillors in Lancashire voted on Thursday to end its use in council-run schools saying it was "cruel" to not stun animals before slaughter.
But the Lancashire Council of Mosques (LCOM) claims the practice of stunning can cause more distress to the animal.
UK and EU law requires animals to be stunned before being killed, unless the meat is intended for Muslims or Jews.
LCOM chairman Abdul Hamid Qureshi: "From our point of view, stunning is not humane - cases can be seen on YouTube where animals are in distress. Animal care is important.
"If the law allows it, the council does not have the right to impose this."

have a guess what happened?
Yes keith they backed down.
Lancashire County Council will keep serving unstunned halal meat in Lancashire schools.
It's been revealed they can't enforce the decision they made last October, to only serve stunned meat, excluding poultry.
The Lancashire Council of Mosques brought a legal challenge, highlighting the things County Council didn't do.

Abdul Hamid Qureshi said:
"They didn't have wider consultation, impact assessment before they made the decision and these are protocol, important procedures to go through.
"We hope that they won't go on to do that, it's time-consuming, it's frustrating, it's wrong - there are a lot of other, very important issues on which we should concentrate."
Like I have said before. Once muslims start to become the majority, it is then they start making demands on the indigenous populations and their governments.
