More details
Great Britain considers itself a multicultural nation. In recent events it has become apparent that certain cultures and traditions consume dog meat. The Government should consider making the farming and consumption of dogs legal to accommodate these cultures.
Dog numbers in Britain are continuing to grow. If measures aren't taken soon the country will be overrun with dogs. So animals should also be taken from shelters to relieve the pressure on this system.
