In 2014, Islamic authorities in Malaysia confirmed Cadbury chocolate had been found not to contain pork DNA after concerns were raised about whether the company’s chocolate contained pig DNA.
I know, lot of ill feeling about that, especially after Rowntrees was sold to Nestle. Both companies had sound working practices, at the forefront of decent pay and living conditions long before it became law.

Halal covers more than food. Cadbury caved. End of story.

@Walter Hinteler,
That reminds of the Sepoy Mutiny of 1857. Some agent provocateur successfully spread a rumor that the cartridges for the new Enfield rifle were made with beef and pork fat, which would have made them offensive to both Hindus and Muslims. Plus ça change . . . I would suspect a competitor of Cadbury.

More on the previously mentioned letter bombs.
Quote:
Detectives investigating devices sent to addresses in London and Glasgow have said a claim of responsibility has been made in the name of the "IRA".
The Met and Police Scotland said similar packages were sent in the past by dissident Northern Ireland groups.
Officers also revealed that one package may be unaccounted for.
The devices arrived on 5 and 6 March at Waterloo Station, buildings near Heathrow Airport and London City Airport and the University of Glasgow.
A joint statement from Police Scotland and the Metropolitan Police said the claim of "IRA" responsibility was received on Monday by the Belfast-based Irish News. A recognised codeword was used.
It added: "Given the packages received last week bore similarities to devices sent in the past which were linked to dissident groups associated with Northern Ireland-related terrorism, officers were already looking at this as a line of inquiry. However, we continue to keep an open mind and enquiries continue.
"We are also aware that those claiming responsibility have indicated five devices were sent. At this time, only four devices have been recovered.
"Extensive advice has already been issued to relevant businesses and sectors to be vigilant for and report suspicious packages to police. This advice was previously sent to armed forces personnel and is being reiterated again in light of this claim.
"We continue to urge the public to remain vigilant and report anything suspicious to police."
The European Parliament's Italian president, Antonio Tajani, has provoked outrage for suggesting fascist dictator Benito Mussolini did some "positive" things before he turned bad.
Before following Hitler into war, Mussolini had "built roads, bridges, buildings, sports facilities", he said on Italian radio.
Political opponents have expressed their shock at his remarks.
But Mr Tajani has hit back, accusing people of manipulating his words.
"I've always been a convinced anti-fascist," he insisted.
Speaking on Italy's Radio 24, Mr Tajani spoke about the legacy left by Mussolini, who he said had "remade many parts of our Italy".
"Up until he declared war on the whole world, following Hitler, and passed the racial laws... he did positive things to create infrastructures for our country," Mr Tajani said, referring to measures that banned Jews from schools and limited their professional, economic and social lives.
He pointed to the building of roads, bridges and other major infrastructure projects. "In terms of the concrete things done, you cannot say he didn't do anything," he said.

He is right if what Mussolini built is still standing or in use. You do not throw the baby out with the bath water. The baby in this case is Italy.

@izzythepush,
The English Defence League founder, appearing in court under his real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, claimed Cambridgeshire police targeted him because of his beliefs. But "Tommy Robinson" has lost his court case against a police force he claimed had harassed him by moving him on from a pub.
The judge ordered that Mr Yaxley-Lennon pay £20,000 towards the defendant's costs.
Mr Yaxley-Lennon said outside court that he would appeal against the judgement.
In full: Judge's remarks on Tommy Robinson vs Cambridgeshire Constabluary
Yaxley-Lennon is being persecuted for speaking truth to power about Islam and its toxic and deadly effects. Witch hunts are popular world wide, and led by the corrupt Leftists, in the UK, Austria, France, and Germany, and of course in the US.
Yaxley-Lennon is being persecuted for speaking truth to power about Islam and its toxic and deadly effects.
He wasn't persecuted: it was his case for harassment against the Cambridgeshire Constabulary. Nothing about Islam but drinking of risk supporters after a football match.
I'm proud of you. Try more reading and less posting. You will not admit to the fact Lennon is a target and the powers that be would like to see him dead. You defend these Nazis constantly.
