Petition Action

Ban Police using Horses to control Protests and Riots.

Petition Details

We would like the government to take into consideration that police horses being used as intimidation during protesting and rioting have seen horses being injured. We would like the welfare of horses to be put first and not allowed to be put in a situation of danger.

Additional Information

The recent London protests have lead to forms of violence against the police on horseback which have in turn injured horses. This is not acceptable.
