Is it just me, or does anyone else think that this has been going on for years and has only been found by chance and now the are making a right fuss over it.

"In a statement, Mr Wright said the Prison Service was investigating the incident "as a matter of urgency".
He added: "This is an absolutely unacceptable situation and one which we regret greatly.
"Clearly this must be distressing for those affected and they can be reassured we are doing everything we can to resolve the situation."
Point1: Why are the Prison Services Investigating it, surely it should be the FSA, the department that is funded by the government to regulate these establishments.
Point 2: Is it really that distressing to have eaten a bit of non Halal meat, are they all going to need counselling now, compensation from the government for allowing such a breach of human rights ?
This has probably been going on for years and yet nobody has died through it or been condemned to a life in hell because they had broken some form of religious rule.
Is it really such a big issue ?
