Reverse the decision to exclude animal sentience from the EU withdrawal bill

Petition Details

Animals have long held the status of being sentient beings in the UK, through legislation created in the EU. The vote in Parliament, narrowly won by the Government, removes this status from all animals in the UK, and is a massive blow to the welfare of wildlife, pets and livestock alike.
