Great news today for #EndTheCageAge campaign. Looking forward to seeing this come to fruition. Well done all ⁦@DefraGovUK⁩ that developed the Animal Welfare Strategy

We’ve just published our Animal Welfare Strategy – the biggest animal welfare reforms in a generation.

We're putting an end to puppy smuggling, consulting on a ban on electric shock collars, and phasing out colony cages for hens.

"Factory farming in Africa: Development banks see it as a good idea, but it’s bad for the climate" (and animal welfare) https://t.co/uMD3eGQqq0

[Adrian Ramsay MP @AdrianRamsay]

The UK claims to lead on animal welfare, yet millions of animals remain trapped in cruel conditions.

Today, I & 36 MPs and Peers urged @DefraGovUK to include a clear time-bound plan to end all confinement cages and crates in the upcoming Animal Welfare Strategy.

[Dave Doogan MP @DaveDooganSNP]

🤝 I recently attended a Parliamentary reception supporting @ciwf’s #EndTheCageAge for laying hens campaign. It’s time to phase out cages and ensure all hens have the freedom to move and express natural behaviours. The UK must lead the way on animal welfare

Over 2,900 cows endured a sea journey from Uruguay to Türkiye, with at least have 58 having died onboard.
Now, after 60+ days at sea, the ordeal is far from over. After being refused entry in Türkiye, the ship is returning to Uruguay🤯

@lucydahlia @DannyVet @DrNeilHudson @TerryJermyMP @GregoryStafford @SirRogerGale @KerryMP “I keep hens myself and the idea of my beautiful hens being kept in a cage is just appalling. It shouldn’t be the case that, for profit, their welfare is undermined.”

Thank you to Baroness Hayman of Ullock for speaking at our #EndTheCageAge parlimentary event.

@lucydahlia @DannyVet “It is very much right that we continue to raise the bar on animal & bird welfare”

Thank you to @DrNeilHudson MP for speaking at our #EndTheCageAge for laying hens parlimentary event.

@lucydahlia “It is painfully evident that chickens that are kept in a situation where they cannot walk properly... are not able to express their natural behaviours & are therefore suffering”

Thank you to @DannyVet MP for speaking at our #EndTheCageAge parlimentary event.

[Compassion in World Farming UK @ciwf]

"It’s an area that crosses party lines, and I’m glad to see there is much cross-party support to end this cruel and outdated way of farming."
