Halal meat and local textiles

How local textile makers are able to compete with foreign suppliers plus the Halal story.

As major UK retailers start to admit that they are supplying Halal meat without labelling it, should all meat be slaughtered according to Halal practices to avoid confusion? Do you mind where your meat comes from, or how it's killed?

You can also hear how cheaper foreign factories "decimated" the UK textiles industry about 20 years ago but how local manufacturers are starting to compete again: We're talking to Tony Gaddum, of Gaddum and Gaddum who've been trading and producing textiles in Leek since 1826.
