Petition Action

Ban imports from the Faroe Islands.

Petition Details

The UK imports approximately £230m of goods from the Faroe Islands. Protestations to the Faroe Island Governments to stop "Grindadrap" have not worked. We must force this barbaric slaughter of whales and dolphins by banning imports of faroe Island produce.

Additional Information

The Faroe Islands have continued the annual slaughter of pilot whales and dolphins as part of their "Grindadrap" festival. This September, they have slaughtered almost 1,500 dolphins. There is no justification for this, other than it has been a "tradition".
