Rejected petition Ban all animal experiments in the uk
In a 21st century society it is unbelievable that animals are still subjected to this torture. This is not the middle ages and vivisection needs to end.
More details
Almost 4 million sentient animals will be tortured in labs across the uk in the name of science. This archaic and barbaric practice needs to stop. It is estimated some 100 million animals are tested on worldwide. We have the power to blaze the trail for a kinder, more modern approach to lab testing worldwide and reduce this disgraceful statistic. Show the world we care about our standards. “The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can bejudged by the way its animals aretreated.” ~ Ghandi
