Robin Hood Says No to Cruel Calf Exports!
After a 10 year hiatus, and despite huge public opposition, Britain's
unwanted male dairy calves are once again being shipped long distances
to suffer in Continental veal crates. Since this vile trade resumed on
May 5th, thousands of tiny calves have been exported through the port at
Dover. The Government has now given the go ahead for exporters to fly
calves to the Continent, paving the way for even more calves to suffer
the terror of transport and the misery of a veal farm.
However, Robin Hood
International Airport, near Doncaster, despite insisting that they
were going start flying calves out imminently, have backed down due to
huge public pressure!
Thank you to everyone who sent polite messages to Robin Hood IA.
Once again, people power has won the day - and a victory for the
calves - but we must never be complacent, and we will be on the look
out for any other airport that considers joining this barbaric trade.
