Petition Action

Recognise animals as sentient beings that can feel pain. Put EU law into UK law.

Petition Details

Animals feel pain. They feel emotions, and have feelings. We need this EU law recognised in UK law. We are a nation of animal lovers, so why wouldn't we want the best animal welfare in the world.

Additional Information

I was shocked and appalled to see our MP's vote against putting this EU legislation in UK law. I don't believe MP's represented the will of the British people and would like this to be debated again.
