Cruelty Against Animals

EDM number 304 in 2008-09, proposed by Bob Spink on 16/12/2008.
Categorised under the topic of Animal welfare.

That this House notes that the video, posted on the internet by Animal Saviours, graphically shows the skinning alive of dogs for the fur trade and depicts some of the most outrageous, horrific and utterly disgusting acts of cruelty that can ever have been perpetrated; suggests that hon. Members would be well advised not to look at the video as it is likely to cause serious trauma; and calls on the Government to make diplomatic representations to China on this practice and to bring forward legislative proposals to ban products manufactured using such practices.

This motion has been signed by a total of 39 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
