Trump poodle Nigel Farage says World would be a ‘better place’ if US took over Greenland. Appeasement of Trump means all powerful nations are free to expand their borders. Years of conflict & unrest would follow. UK needs political leaders, not poodles.

I've just read the Animal Welfare Strategy for England. Suprisingly not a word about banning the disgraceful stag hunting with hounds, which is one of the worst animal welfare issues. That certainly needs to be included.

The government just voted to ban protests at animal testing sites – but we have a chance to stop them! Send a message today #animaltestingprotests www.petauk.org/4ga

For over 60 years the HSA has been at the forefront in the fight against hunting. We have seen the introduction of the Hunting Act 2004 and have exposed how it is being manipulated by hunts who continue to behave as they did before this act was introduced.

Only to be wrapped in plastic and hurled into the nearest river before washing up here on a remote Solway beach. They are bred as living targets rather than as food.

The UK government announced in its new animal welfare strategy that snares will be banned in England. 🦊 #animalwelfare #animalrights #wildlife #england #hunting
