This is literally the modern day equivalent of the Kosher tax debate, which was much bigger back when all the bigots were more focussed on Jews. But of course its Islam's turn now so we need to go through this all over again.

This is a free market mechanism. Kosher and Halal certs make up the tiniest fraction of the cost of your food. It is literally miniscule. If we were to not certify common foods as Halal or Kosher, then new brands would come up to fill this gap in the market.

The end result would be that EVERYBODY pays more for their food

You're comparing apples with oranges. I am not aware that Jews, Buddhists, Christians or any other religion in Australia demand
certification" labels [ie PROTECTION MONEY] on any food stuffs.

It's very sad to keep on hearing of the demise of one of the better Australian satirical cartoonists of the 20thC.

I have no idea why a few HC posters keep on posting his content.

I posted a story from the Australian which corroborates what Pickering says. Old he may be, but I doubt he's lost his scalpel.

Who is lying - Pickering or the Australian? Or are you just wrong......
