Student to take university to court after being 'kicked out for views on halal meat'

A student looks set to take academics to court after he was kicked out of university for giving his views on halal meat.

Sebastian Walsh told friends on his uni course it was “violent and barbaric" and that "the UK is being Islamified" in a seminar.

However, after multiple complaints were made against him, the University of Central Lancashire suspended the first year Children, Schools, and Families student in February.

Now, he is set to take the university to court after raising £30,000 through CrowdJustice pending the outcome of an appeal.

Halal is meat where animals are killed through a cut to the jugular vein, carotid artery and windpipe instead of stunning.

He told friends he would never eat at Subway or KFC because they sold meat that had been slaughtered. [Daily Mirror] Read more
