Some Tory MPs probably need to feed on the blood of puppies to stay alive.
The Tories literally get absolutely nothing right. Not one damn thing. Fuck them to hell and back again.
The demise of a promise:^1
>Many so-called puppy farms are operating in Ireland, in which dogs are kept in poor conditions to produce large numbers of puppies to be sold in Ireland, but also shipped to the UK.
>The Kept Animals Bill—which also included a ban on primates as pets, a crackdown on puppy smuggling and greater protection for sheep from dangerous dogs—were in the Conservatives’ election manifesto.
>The promises were mainstays of the government’s 2021 grand animal-welfare action plan, and the Bill was one of Boris Johnson’s flagship policies.
>During his Tory leadership campaign last year, Rishi Sunak promised to ban live animal exports and to champion the Kept Animals Bill.
>
>Environment, food and rural affairs minister Mark Spencer announced on Thursday the government was dropping it, citing a lack of parliamentary time—but sources said the government feared it could lead to debates over the hunting ban.
>Battersea, Blue Cross, Cats Protection, Dogs Trust, RSPCA and The Kennel Club joined forces to condemn the U-turn, saying animals “will now continue to suffer without the protections the bill could have provided, including victims of puppy and kitten smuggling, dog and cat abduction and the importation of dogs with cropped ears and declawed cats”.
Hard to tell what the Tories hate more – poor people or animals.
At least poor people can speak for themselves.
What, you mean to tell me that the Tory Party said they’d do something that played well with voters, then quietly scrapped the plans once the news cycle had moved on? I am shocked. Shocked!
Why does all the seediest shit seem to come from ireland
They don’t want to solve problems now they prefer drawing out a continuous feed of anything that makes us angry as a nation.
