A Eurobarometer poll in 2010 reported that 37% of UK citizens "believed there is a God", 33% believe there is "some sort of spirit or life force" and 25% answered "I don't believe there is any sort of spirit, God or life force".[1]
In 2014, The Telegraph reported:
| “ | The British are among the most sceptical in the world about religion, a global study has found.
Just over a third of people in the UK believe religion has a positive role to play in our daily lives, compared to a global average of 59 per cent.[2] |

Between 1983 and 1993 more than 160 horses were sexually mutilated and stabbed in Britain.[3] British police and animal experts have put the blame on fertility cults, rival horse owners and sadists for the attacks.[4]

Irreligious France and horse meat eating
On January 8, 2019, Wikipedia (an online encyclopedia founded by an atheist and agnostic) declared:
| “ | In France, specialized butcher shops (boucheries chevalines) sell horse meat, as ordinary butcher shops were for a long time forbidden to deal in it. However, since the 1990s, it can be found in supermarket butcher shops and others.
Horse meat was famously eaten in large amounts during the 1870 Siege of Paris], when it was included in haute cuisine menus.[5] |
