The judge said: "You have conducted a business that has provided employment for people. It has, certainly since these matters came to light, been conducted in a compliant and hygienic way ... However, you intended to make gains for yourself ... by tricking people into engaging in transactions by pretending that the meat they were to buy was of British origin and had a good animal welfare background...
