Include animal sentience within the EU Withdrawal Bill
MPs have voted to reject the inclusion of animal sentience – the admission that animals feel emotion and pain – into the EU Withdrawal Bill. Their excuse was that animals would be covered by the Animal Welfare Act 2006, but this has no mention of sentience & only covers companion animals; pets.
