  Reynolds added the sentencing guidelines for offences involving a firm the size of Kismet provided a range of fines between £15m and £24m, which he called “wholly unrealistic”.

  Judge Huw Rees said at the time of the offending, fraudulent activity had been “endemic” at the firm and he said it had engaged in “considerable dishonesty” over a prolonged period.

  He noted the significant steps the firm had taken in the years since the offending, and he said it was a case where harm was difficult to determine.

  Fuck that. Put the scumbags out of business, £500k fine is nothing when it should be £15 - 24 million. No care for public health, only profit. Mixing various meats, lips, and arseholes and passing it off as lamb meat.

  A fine is not a punishment. A fine is a fee.

  Mostly? Surprised there was anything else.

  They’d better take a look at my local supermarkets too then. The chicken is mainly fat, connective tissue and water.
