Petition Make trespass on British farms a criminal offence. Protect British farmers!

Protect British farmers from trespass, including by animal rights protestors, who are entering private property without permission. Protect livestock from unnecessary stress caused by people trespassing on private property without permission.

More details

Many people, including animal rights protestors are entering farms without permission. This is an invasion of privacy, it is a health and safety risk and it also risks the spread of disease.

These invasions also cause unnecessary stress to livestock which is against the 'Five Needs' Legislation passed by the British Government.

Farmers who gave been pushed to breaking point are being arrested for trying to protect themselves, their livestock and their property. This is unacceptable!
