URGENT GLOBAL ACTION: The UK parliament is scheduled to debate animal toxicity testing this Monday afternoon.

We need to make sure the Prime Minister is aware of the international outrage at the recent footage out of UK toxicity testing labs. This will support the many MPs standing up for the animals in this debate.

Sending a message to the British PM will take a minute more than our normal actions – but it is such an important action to take.

Please go to Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s contact form and tell him about this harrowing new evidence out of UK laboratories ➡️ https://t.co/pJA2VOMfIH

Your message can be simple and short, but please convey these sentiments:

1️⃣You are shocked and distressed by the recent footage of beagles, primates and other animals suffering in toxicity testing labs in the UK.

2️⃣Call on him as PM to act to end it. There is no justification for inflicting such suffering on animals, especially when modern human-relevant technologies already exist to replace these tests.

Once you’ve sent the form, you will receive a validation link to your email which you need to click for the message to go through. Please don’t miss this important step!

Once you have taken action, comment DONE below to let us know. The animals are counting on us to speak up for them. Thank you. 🙏

These are the stories of animals harmed by Russia’s war in Ukraine - ones I have written about over the years. Sadly, there are many more.

Do you remember them? Which story stayed with you the most?

The horse racing industry seems to attract the worst type of people is it any wonder horse welfare is such a low priority

[PETA @peta]

Another horse, Get On George, also died after the event, bringing the toll to at least 69 horses killed at @TheJockeyClub's Grand National festival since 2000.

Horses are pushed beyond their limits for a race built on gambling, sponsorship, and spectacle, and when their bodies give out, they pay with their lives.

Steve Tunison killed this magnificent cat with Chris du Plooy Safaris. Would like to wipe that smirk from his face. Despicable being. 🤬

Foxes are not the only victims of trail hunts. End trail hunting.

Thousands are calling for the Grand National to be ended after more horses died at Aintree.

“Every year, horses are pushed to their physical limits over extreme distances and dangerous obstacles," says Kim Macdonald, who has started a petition calling on organisers to rethink the risks horses face at Aintree, and to prioritise their welfare.

"Despite safety improvements, injuries and fatalities still occur. These animals do not choose to participate, yet they bear the risks for the sake of entertainment and profit.”

No one believes the racing industry puts horse welfare as the top priority, when they see this happen

Drunken men & women dead horses and banned jockeys another hall of shame for the Aintree racing festival

[dominic dyer @domdyer70]

Gold Dancer died at Aintree on Friday. He was not the first. He will not be the last.
The RSPCA confirmed he was the 42nd horse to die in UK racing in 2026. It is only April.

Since the year 2000, 68 horses have died at Aintree alone. PETA responded by calling the Grand National Festival the Grand Massacre. Animal Aid said the words that landed hardest: Everyone who bought a ticket, placed a bet or watched the ITV coverage paid for this horse to die.

The BHA pointed to a falling fatal injury rate of 0.22 percent in 2025. Animal welfare groups said that number still represents hundreds of horses dying every year for entertainment.

Gold Dancer won £67,524. He was dead within minutes of crossing the line. The Grand National ran the following day.

Ban the Grand National.
Ban Horse Racing.

[dominic dyer @domdyer70]

This horse broke his back on the last jump, jockey and animal abuser Paul Townend then forced and whipped the horse over the finish with a BROKEN BACK to finish 1st. The horse was killed

[dominic dyer @domdyer70]

A horse has just died at Aintree. Shame on all those who attended “Ladies” Day and contributed to this cruel bloodsport. RIP Gold Dancer💔💔💔💔

[dominic dyer @domdyer70]

Four horses died in four days at Cheltenham.

Next week, the racing industry moves on to Aintree as if nothing has happened.

These are not ‘unfortunate incidents’. They are predictable, repeated, and built into a system that pushes horses beyond their limits for entertainment and profit.

How many more deaths will it take before enough is enough?

Boycott Aintree. Don’t attend. Don’t watch. Don’t bet.

Please share and encourage others to do the same.

A Russian drone strike hit a kindergarten in Kharkiv – after a massive attack overnight. Unfortunately, one person has been killed – my condolences to the bereaved family. As of now, seven people have been injured and are receiving medical care. All the children have been evacuated and are now in shelters. Preliminary reports indicate that many are showing acute stress reactions.

There is no justification for a drone strike on a kindergarten, nor can there ever be. Clearly, Russia is growing more brazen. These strikes are Russia’s spit in the face to everyone who insists on a peaceful resolution.

Thugs and terrorists can only be put in their place by force.

[Maria Avdeeva @maria_avdv]

Simply share this. Imagine it’s a kindergarten anywhere in Europe’s second-largest city — can you even imagine the reaction?
