LETTERS – Halal has no place in our town

With laws around the slaughter of animals in the UK the new halal butcher has no place in our town.

However, it would appear either our elected representatives or even worse employees of the rate payers think it’s ok.

Would they like to stand by their decision and publish their name and the logic behind it? I would guess it will be progressive inclusivity.

I do feel though as my views are seldom considered could you please stop including me in the payment for your progressive views and finance them yourself.

As I seem to be included in every list to pay and then totally ignored.
