Yes, I need to know how the meat I eat was killed. I want the most humane method possible.

That isn’t.

I agree. I wouldn't touch Kosher or Halal meat with a bargepole, and it should be clearly labelled.

It would make sense. It would meet the needs of all carnivores to have some sort of say over how the meat they eat has been slaughtered. I find the idea of no-stun slaughter revolting and inhumane.

However I do not eat red meat - lots of fish and some poultry (for which the slaughter issue is also relevant).

Yes I think it should be labelled.

Yes it absolutely should and country of origin.

What about though if buying from butchers?

There is currently no legislation in the UK for meat to be labelled as to the slaughter methods.

Personally I will only eat meat that is stunned before slaughter.

We have a growing Muslim population and plenty of Jewish communities in the UK and of course people like me who wish to chose non kosher/halal meat but not for religious purposes.

This should also apply in restaurants.
