Today (May 1st) Animal Aid joined a flashmob organised by Lush, to dance and sing our protest against the badger cull outside Defra's offices.
Lush has supported the campaign against the cull in all its UK shops over the last ten days and the flashmob was the culmination of the two groups’ joint initiative. Fifty ‘badgers’ danced along to a version of the Queen-inspired ‘Badgers’ tune performed by the band’s guitarist Brian May.
The message to government was this: if you ignore scientific opinion and the views of the public, and insist on implementing this unethical and unpopular cull, it will cost you votes.
Charlotte Dujardin, a dressage champion for Team GB, has withdrawn from the 2024 Paris Olympics. This is due to recently-surfaced footage, taken four years ago of her whipping a horse repeatedly around the legs.
