Yes, in Belgium and France. It's often to be found in the Sunday and Monday markets when we are down in Midi-Pyrenees.

It's not illegal to prepare or sell horse in the UK, nor to import it from Europe, but it has been very rare (for 'but horses are pets' reasons, and the general decline of horse numbers, rather than health or safety concerns) since the end of WWII. Gordon Ramsay said we should revive it a few years ago but I don't think anything much came of that. (The surge in rabbit consumption might be an indication that we're ready to revisit horse, but I doubt it.)

NB was a horsey kind of child, and much prefer them to, say, dogs. Just not in the least bit sentimental about meat.

Oh, has there been a surge in rabbit consumption? That's probably explain why the rabbit I bought last year was so bastard expensive.

There's a premium because breeding rabbits for consumption is quite a risky business.

Hare-raising, in fact.
