"Unquestioning brutality like slaughter
and capital punishment does corrupt you and is a blot on the civilizing
of society. Such positions reflect on the values of a society. I am
particularly revolted by religious slaughter but the slaughter of all
animals is barbaric. Why breed animals simply to kill and eat them. How
is it different to killing people?” - Democratic
Socialist Tony Benn
“Our presence on this Earth is like being shipwrecked and sailing together in a lifeboat. You can either sell what food there is to the rich so they survive and then generate fights over it, or you can share it out. It isn’t just a moral decision but a practical one. There is no shortage of food in the world simply a shortage of money with which to buy it.” – Tony Benn
