Reverse the vote in the Brexit bill that animals are not sentient beings
MPs recently voted to reject the idea that animals are sentient or able to feel pain, a ludicrous decision that has been disputed by science for hundreds of years. Such a vote would open the door to the cruellest forms of animal exploitation, testing, and vivisection. Animals do not deserve torture.
