chicken slaughtering

'Farming today' on Radio 4 on the 4th August presented a feature on a forthcoming government (FAWC) study of the horrible shackling and stunning of live chickens for slaughter on the 'production line' in meat factories. It included an interview with Compassion in World Farming (CIWF), and the programme-makers invited listeners to send in their views.
