    Yesterday it happened. A UK live export disaster at the port of Ramsgate, Kent. It has been long anticipated, but no one could have predicted the scale of brutal incompetence and neglect that yesterday led to a welfare catastrophe.

    Today Thanet District Council have suspended exports from the port. As Ramsgate was the only British port still being used to ship live farm animals for slaughter, this could be the end of live exports from the UK. We must push Defra to support Thanet’s brave decision. We must make this temporary change permanent, and we must ensure the trade isn’t allowed to simply relocate.

    Life summary : I love animals even more than people

  • jpatr1d

    I have always loved animals, no matter what shape,size, color, species they are. I started as a vegetarian a few years ago, but i only knew that i didn't want to eat animal. i stoped for a while when i lost my job and ate what i could. no excuse i know. but soon later to realized my mission in life and purpose. i am here to be the voice of those who do not speak human. i changed my outlook to this because i found a boxer mix dog laying under my porch. she had gotten hit by a car and was severely starved. everyone around me was like leave it alone, you don't know where it came from, but i didn't care i had to save her. i rushed her to the emergency vet clinic where they did immediate surgery on her. despite those peoples commentary i saved a dogs life and from that point on i knew that if people treated a dog that way i wonder how people treat non domestic animals. I researched and came across peta2 where i now am an animal activist and vegan. I continue to help and save animals that i find and plan on never changing my ways for any one.
