Animal Aid Calls on Backbenchers to Scupper Government's Pro-Bloodsport Agenda

On the first day of the partridge shooting season – 1 September – Animal Aid contacted every MP regarding the government’s promotion of ‘gamebird’ shooting, and asked them to demand an immediate reversal of policy. We also sent every MP a preview of a new viral film showing the shocking cruelty, wastefulness and greed of the gamebird industry. In the coming weeks, Animal Aid, and our network of supporters across the UK, will be staging the first National Anti-Shooting Week (22-28 September) to highlight the government’s pro-bloodsports agenda.

Making a killing report

MAKING A KILLING: Major new report exposes how drug industry greed harms people and animals

Today (3rd September) Animal Aid launches Making a Killing: How drug company greed harms people and animals, a major new report that exposes a catalogue of unethical practices – beginning with misleading animal tests – that are designed to drive up drug sales, which already cost the NHS £1 billion per year. The public’s health also suffers: in 2006, 1 million people were hospitalised in Britain due to adverse drug reactions.

Citing more than 400 references, the report paints a compelling picture of a morally bankrupt industry that has run out of control.
