End the use of horses by mounted police units in the UK.
The use of horses in mounted police units should be ended.
There is no ethical or moral justification for the use of horses by the police force.
Horses do not have choices about how we use them and to deliberately train them against their nature, to become weapons is inherently wrong and cruel.
They cannot ever be sufficiently trained to accept the situations they are used in and will always be fearful.
Tax payers are funding legalised abuse of horses without questioning and there is no place for that in modern society.
