Back the Ban

Don’t let the Tories bring back hunting. The Conservative Party have pledged that if they become the next Government they will hold a new vote in Parliament to reverse Labour’s ban on “Hunting with Dogs”. In a recent poll 75% of voters in Britain were in favour of keeping the ban and only 16% wanted to bring it back. Thanks to a Labour Government we have:

• Banned fox hunting, hare coursing, hare hunting and stag hunting
• Banned fur farming and worked in Europe to ban imports of cat and dog fur into the EU
• Banned driftnet fishing which helps protect dolphins, turtles, sea birds and other animals
• Banned testing cosmetics, toiletries, alcohol and tobacco on animals
• Established the National Centre for the Replacement, Reduction and Refinement of Animals in Research which provides research into alternatives to animal testing,

 I believe that killing for sport is wrong and I am opposed to the Tory plans to bring back hunting. Please sign up and help us protect the ban.

 Dear Jessica, my main reason for this e-mail is to ask if you and the Labour party are still commited to the best Animal Welfare policies that can be provided. Is the fox hunting ban still sacrosanct? This is my main concern when it comes to the choice of party. All the other things that we humans think are important can be resolved but animals must have a voice and that voice is ours spoken through our representative, Our MP. Many thanls .
