Petition: Stop animal testing https://t.co/TxDamUhWxm

[Chris Packham @ChrisGPackham]

You couldn’t make it up . . . and you don’t have to . A disgrace to conservation , a disgrace to the public purse and a shabby sop to organised wildlife criminals . At some point they will become accountable for this debacle @RaptorPersUK @RSPBbirders @ReviveCoalition @LeagueACS

The government secretly abandoned the UK’s ban on animal testing for cosmetics in 2019 – but today a High Court Judge has ruled that the ban can be reinstated.

We call for the ban to be immediately reinstated.

A wee thread about a young boy and the tweet that got away. Feel free to RT.

Three weeks ago my youngest, Gabriel 12, came home upset. His love of woodwork was not deemed cool, nor was only having 6 followers on his instagram. 1/15
