Repeal the government decision on animal sentience that disregards pain/emotion

Petition Details

The UK government has recently voted on a Brexit bill that means all non pets are no longer considered sentient, I.e refuses to acknowledge their ability to feel pain or emotions.

This is a huge setback to animal welfare and sets a dangerous precedent moving forward in creating new non-EU laws.
