All meat should be labelled with Country of origin and method of slaughter.
I believe the British Public should be aware of the origin of where the meat they are buying everyday is from and how the meat is slaughtered, regardless of whether it is cooked or raw meat. The public deserve the right to an informed choice.
This should be a recognised right of the people to have knowledge and information about the food they are consuming, and it may avoid another scandal such as the horseflesh fiasco.
