Rest In Peace Hansard. We are so sorry.
Not even three hours in Cheltenham and a horse has lost their life.
You were a living being, not entertainment.
You deserved a life not a finished line. 💔

On International War Animals Day we remember that animals are forced into warfare and have been treated as equipment in human conflicts for centuries. Calling them “heroes” may sound respectful, but animals are not soldiers. No more animals in human conflict. 📸 Warfare History Network, Brooke & IWM

You don’t have to be an animal lover to respect animals 🫵
“Animal lover” is a familiar phrase, usually shorthand for kindness and good intentions. But let's remember that many animals don’t need us to love them; they need us to leave them alone. Respect is the baseline, not a bonus.
#AnimalRights
Animal research facilities have been reclassified as “key national infrastructure”.
We’re reviewing what this means and taking formal advice.
But this hasn’t changed:
Your voice matters.
Speaking up for animals is your right.
We’ll keep supporting effective, lawful action to end animal testing.
🚨 MPs have voted to class animal testing labs as national infrastructure, effectively making protesting against them, unlawful.
This is a huge step backwards for animals & a serious threat to our right to protest.
We are assessing the legal wording, but one thing is certain: this isn’t the end. 🐾
📢 End animal experiments - not the right to protest them.
Protecting buildings over animals’ lives is wrong.
The Lords must defend our right to speak up for animals.
#EndAnimalTesting
Debate will start about 3.45pm on Wednesday.

Baroness Bennett of Manor Castle to move that this House declines to approve the Draft Public Order Act 2023 (Interference With Use or Operation of Key National Infrastructure) Regulations 2025 on the basis that they are legislative overreach; they extend the definition of "critical national infrastructure" beyond its appropriate meaning; the practical need for such an extension has not been adequately justified; they represent a further restriction on the democratic right to peaceful protest; and sufficient steps to end animal testing have not been taken.
My "fatal motion" in #HouseofLords seeking to stop criminalisation & restriction of peaceful protest around #animaltesting facilities, falsely labelled "key national infrastructure".
Date of debate TBA

Most animal experiments aren’t required by law.
Over 50% happen in universities — many funded by student fees.
Our #UniversitiesChallenged campaign exposes needless, non-regulatory research and calls for modern, animal-free science. 💚

Badgers aren’t to blame for bovine TB — dairy farming is.
94% of cases spread cow-to-cow, not badger-to-cow.
In England in 2024 at least 17,150 badgers were culled under government-issued licenses.
End the cull. End dairy farming.
