Petition Tougher sentencing for animal abuse/neglect in the UK.

More details

I am a law student who feels the law is very unjust in this area. I am tired of reading/hearing in the news every single day about the cruelty and abuse going on in our society.

Currently for animal cruelty the maximum fine is £20,000/6 month prison sentence. I want to see this increased to an unlimited fine/2 year prison sentence.

We are supposedly a nation of animal lovers and thats why I am confident that we can come together and reach 10,000 signatures.

Please sign and share this on Twitter/Facebook/Tumblr and get the word around.

Thank you.
