Read the entire article - and finger-crossed that you may,
just may, see the picture picture.

Morgan,

I just do not understand why you keep claiming some type of victory re the Abattoirs in Indonesia.
Sure at least AA tried but we have failed.

The Minister had given no guarantee that animals must be stunned prior to slaughter.
"Stunning must be a non-negotiable aspect of live trade,”

They absolutely refuse to do it and always have & always will.

OIE guidelines do not require stunning before slaughter of cattle. Without stunning, cattle can exhibit indicators of possible consciousness for up to 2 minutes after the throat is cut, leading to a slow and pain death. The welfare standards which are acceptable to the Australian public and farmers cannot be guaranteed in overseas markets. Look I dont know why AA or Lyn went it when they did. This has been going on for donkeys years- so why now when we were told they are winding up in a few years. Was it a fund raiser- probably not. Did it help- long term I think so.

Just trust me too there is no way they give a stuff over there about what political spin our polys give to the Aussie public.

People by from freed lots and let me tell you nobody gives a rats what tattooed on the poor cows bum.

It should be banned 100% its as simple as that

The butchers spin would have a better hold on whats real and what you read on AA web site.

Thats for sure. Hasbeen you wont get anywhere mate because Morgan is always right. You should know that by now but good luck.
