		</div><p>Food shoppers intending to pick up food for a midweek meal were greeted with an unexpectedly sombre scene on Wednesday.</p>
<p>Black-clad mourners lined the meat aisle in a branch of Sainsbury’s in Brighton, East Sussex, and held a funeral for Christmas turkeys.</p>
<p>The protesters stood silently bearing signs in an effort to highlight the “violence of a traditional Christmas meal”.</p>
<p>The demonstration was organised by animal rights group Direct Action Everywhere (DxE), who previously staged a gruesome tableau involving activists in a cage to highlight animal testing.</p>
<p>A spokesman for the group said: “<em>We use the method of disruption to draw immediate attention to the beings who were killed for their bodies to be on a shelf.</em></p>
<p><em>“We are targeting the system of speciesism and aiming for systematic change rather than targeting individuals.”</em></p>
<p>A spokesman for Sainsbury’s confirmed a small group visited their Brighton store for a brief time and moved on peacefully.</p>
<p>In October, DxE activists locked themselves in a cage in Brighton and were “experimented” upon in a gruesome demonstration against animal testing.</p>
<p>Two protesters, dressed in skin-coloured clothing, looked out at passers-by before being hauled out by one of their associates dressed in a lab coat.</p>
