The British Government promised to ban live exports – the cramming of cattle, sheep and other animals onto trucks for horrific journeys overseas for slaughter or fattening – but has broken its promises again and again, most recently even dropping their own bill! Now there's a window of opportunity to ban this cruelty. Join now and when our call is massive, we’ll take it directly to No. 10!
Dear friends across the UK,
Rishi Sunak promised to 'champion' a bill to ban live exports – the cramming of cattle and sheep onto trucks for horrific journeys overseas for slaughter or further fattening. But instead of sticking to his promise, the government dropped their own bill!

People across the country and campaigners pushing for better animal welfare are furious, and time to get a new bill introduced and through Parliament is running out fast. That's why now is the moment for a massive citizen push.

There's a window of opportunity: Post-Brexit trade rule complications have led to a temporary halt to British live exports via Calais. But exporters could find a "solution" to this problem any day, and a ban will be much harder to get once vested interests are again making money from this cruel trade. So let's build a huge call now, and Avaaz will work with key animal welfare advocates to take it directly to No. 10:
No more broken promises: Ban live exports now!
The list of horrors animals exported from Britain and elsewhere endure is long: they face stress, exhaustion, hunger, dehydration, injury and death. They’re also often headed to conditions that would be illegal in the UK.

Live export disasters are frequent globally, too – like the thousands of sheep literally cooking alive in the blazing heat on a ship which moved nearly a million Avaazers to call for an end to this outrage, or a recent case of 15,000 sheep drowning when their ship sank en route to Saudi Arabia.

Repeated promises to ban live exports have been broken, despite broad cross-party support for this legislation. There was even a motion in Parliament that would have allowed the Bill to pass into law in a single day this summer -- but the Government blocked this from happening. Avaaz is teaming up with Compassion in World Farming to say enough with the delay! Let's ask Rishi Sunak to be a real champion for animals, now:
No more broken promises: Ban live exports now!
This isn’t the first time Avaaz members are coming together to push for better standards in animal welfare and an end to cruel practices – we’ve done it before, from a global push to ban live exports a few years ago, to helping stop the sale of dog meat at the Yulin festival in China, to calling for (and winning!) protections for the wild species our planet needs to survive. Let’s come together across the UK now to ask the Government to stick with its promises and ban live exports.

With hope,

Kanika, Antonia, Nathan and the whole Avaaz team
