Let's wait a week and see how Jeff Banks lands with Gen-Z and Millennials.

Wasn't she a Clothes Show presenter with Banks? Apparently an animal welfare campaigner, the part time Mail contributer is relaxed about Jews slitting animal throats without stunning because they're aren't so many of them as there is the other lot. That's alright then.

Surely, if you’re going to slaughter a beast for food, dispatching the creature with a razor sharp severing of the main artery is only marginally less humane than first rendering the beast insensible with an electric stun gun ?

If halal and kosher slaughter methods were really so shockingly cruel and inhumane, then they really would be illegal. That they are not is perhaps an indicator that halal/kosher methods really aren’t as intolerable as Scott suggests. And that’s before you even get to the fact that such methods of animal slaughter were the only methods (and perfectly acceptable methods at that) of slaughtering animals available, for hundreds or even thousands of years before electric stunning was ever even conceived of. I find Scott’s position on this at best hypocritical (assuming she consumes meat herself), and at worst deliberately aimed at fomenting racial hatred (well, it IS in The Mail). Scott’s Wiki entry indicates that she is apparently not a Tory. But I bet she helps Farage’s lot out when they're short-handed.

Scott is 74. Is she the Brigitte Bardot de nos jours ?

Religious slaughter conjures up images of burning pyres and chanting cultists, which I'm sure is not the intention.

Animals die so we can eat them. If you have a problem with that, go veggie.

It’s a fact that economies can’t function without credit, that’s for sure. Is consumer credit on cards idifferent to sovereign debt, bank loans, mortgages and trade credit?

Payday loans, I would put in a separate category.

Hence, my thoughts on the practice of usury (like, for example, Payday Loans), rather than the principle of credit per se.

90% of halal slaughter is pre-stunned.
The figure for kosher is 0%, but the Jews aren't so uppity at the moment, so they can wait.

The UKIPs keep limping on, and have a new logo. Gone is the yellow pound symbol on a purple background, to be replaced with... something problematic. Short of a couple of lightning bolts representing Save Sterling it would be hard to come up with something more Adolf-adjacent.

Nick Tenconi, eh? Not heard of him before, but he certainly looks like a massive cunt.

You’d think UKIP would just have packed it in, or signed up wholesale to Farage’s latest grift. Has Neil Hamilton fallen out with Farage ? It was only a few years ago that Hamilton was talking about him and Fargle enjoying a “three bottle lunch”. together.

[Tubby Isaacs]

Characters.

Or drink problem, as it's called when non-populist politicians less beloved by the press do the same thing.

[Andy McDandy]

I am a foul and twisted pervert. When you mentioned "enjoying a three bottle lunch together", my mind blanked that and went for something much fouler, and involving Hamilton's lady wife.

Anyway, hope you're all enjoying your dinner.
