LIKE Chris Flanagan (Letters, February 6), I too was horrified by the plight of the lambs being abused at the Bowood abattoir.
I believe all animals should be stunned before slaughter; religion should not come before compassion in our treatment of animals.
We should follow the example of Denmark, which has passed legislation to make it compulsory to stun animals before slaughter.
Well done to Animal Aid for being brave enough to take this footage.
