Thank you to all MPs and Peers who have worked to end live exports in Parliament for years. And to all the orgs, campaigners and public who have tirelessly worked to end this vile trade. GB is the first in Europe to ban live animal exports & we hope other countries will

Today is #RemembranceSunday A time to honour and remember all those who died in war. Also consider the millions of animals who served alongside brave men and women. Eight million horses, countless mules and donkeys died during the First World War alone #LestWeForget

Great to hear @BorisJohnson say at Exeter #hustings today:”I would go further -leaving the EU will actually give us the opportunity to intensify some protections & I would point out for instance- live transport of animals to the continent - where we can do more & we should..”

We estimate UK taxpayers face over £1.2B annually in hidden costs, including our estimate that 85% of subsidies that go to chicken and pig farmers are consumed by factory farms. Follow @ConservativeAWF to help us end suffering of animals on factory farms

As 2020 draws closer, we call for an end to live animal exports to save sheep and young calves from needless suffering during long, gruelling journeys for slaughter and fattening overseas
