Campaigners organize a bike ride to Parliament to raise awareness for their cause.
This week, TEN horses led an inspiring ‘Ride to Parliament’ through London in support of the Animal Welfare Bill, which would ban exports of live animals from Great Britain for fattening or slaughter. Accompanied by mounted police, the procession rode from Knightsbridge to the Houses of Parliament and was organised by World Horse Welfare. Roly Owers, the organisation’s chief executive, stated that the bill “will ban live exports of animals for slaughter and fattening” and is “a founding issue” for World Horse Welfare. He added that there is an urgent need to get the legislation passed before the end of the year, as time is running out with the looming general election.
