Rejected petition: Retain Proposed Ban on Fur and Foie Gras Imports into the UK
Rejected on
We call on the Government to proceed as quickly as possible with its pledge to ban the import and sale of all fur and foie gras products in the UK.
These are extremely cruel practices and were the subject of a clear manifesto commitment upon which the present government was elected. The proposed bans should not now be the subject of a ‘U-turn’, as has been widely reported.
