Include animal sentience in the EU Withdrawal Bill.

UK MP’s have just voted that animals cannot feel emotion or pain. This will have devastating effects on animal welfare in the UK.

Speak for those who cannot speak for themselves and sign to show the government that this is unacceptable in a civilised society.
