Closed Make publishing images or videos of animal abuse a specific criminal offence

Closed on

There has been recent reports of video of animal torture and abuse being watched and paid for by people in the UK.

I would like to see it made a specific criminal offence to publish footage of animal abuse, so that all images and videos of animal abuse and torture are banned on UK media and platforms.
