Cranswick Share Price (CWK)

Look at you with your 7 post history desperately trying to defend the disgusting acts this company has allowed to take place.

The human body has evolved to eat meat. Along with cabbage, meat is the last food we become allergic to.

We are no longer hunter-gatherers.

People are once again starting to see the health benefits of a high fat diet.

Cranswick is well placed to supply meat to the UK population.

Secretly filmed footage has shown farm workers appearing to grab piglets by their hind legs and smashing them on to the hard floor – a banned method of killing known as blunt force trauma or “piglet thumping”.

Other harrowing footage from the farm owned by one of the UK’s biggest pig meat producers, Cranswick, showed a sow being kicked and beaten with metal bars.

Just think about the profits.

Supplies from one particular farm have been suspended.

Cranswick has over 300 farms that supply supermarkets.

Long term outlook unchanged. This will pass swiftly.

Cranswick shares tumble after Lincolnshire pig farm cruelty claims

Back in the City, shares in UK meat producer Cranswick have tumbled after Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Asda and Morrisons all suspended supplies from a Lincolnshire pig farm linked to abuse against pigs.

Cranswick is the biggest faller on the FTSE 250 index of medium-sized companies, down 7.5%.

My colleague Sarah Butler reported yesterday:

Secretly filmed footage has shown farm workers at Northmoor Farm appearing to grab piglets by their hind legs and smashing them on to the hard floor – a banned method of killing known as blunt force trauma or “piglet thumping”.

Other harrowing footage from the farm owned by one of the UK’s biggest pig meat producers, Cranswick, showed a sow being kicked and beaten with metal bars, as well as a botched killing that left an animal writhing in agony, as first reported by the Mail on Sunday.

One worker who failed to kill a sow with several shots from a bolt gun, reportedly told an undercover investigator: “Don’t let nobody see you doing like what we did [sic].”
