On the basis of a leaked draft, @politico-europe-POLITICOEurope is reporting that the @EUCommission will propose ‘welfare standards’ for fur farmed animals, rather than introduce a ban.
This decision completely flies in the face of #animalwelfare science and public opinion. Remember that 1.5 million citizens signed the #FurFreeEurope #ECI demanding a ban on fur farming.

Hey @jon, what’s the most effective way to complain to Deutsche Bahn?
Spent past 9 hours on nightmare journey to Berlin & won’t make it further than Hannover tonight. Direct 15.59 train from A’dam was cancelled with no customer notification. Then sent from pillar to post, even involving cross-border replacement bus that turned up 30 mins late with all its knock-on consequences…
Any advice re. compensation? Lost hotel night Berlin & unplanned night in Hannover.
REFIT & Reseal: Why the EU must uphold the ban on trade in seal products.
An OpEd from yours truly reminding policymakers that the trade in the cruel products of the commercial sealing industry was banned in 2009 due to public moral concerns about #animalwelfare
The farming lobby vs Europe's wolves.

Truly despicable. A decapitated wolf’s head is dumped outside a German conservation organisation. #nature #wolves #conservation #animals #disgusting #hunters #wolf
The commercial seal slaughter resumed in #Canada today. This aerial photo of the carnage, which I took back in 2005 when observing the #sealhunt, encapsulates the horror, cruelty & wastefulness of this marine mammal massacre.
I am proud to have been directly involved in achieving & upholding the EU ban on commercial seal product trade. While the slaughter continues, innumerable lives have been saved by the closure of the EU market. #animalwelfare #fur
Yesterday I was trying to track down the contact details of @EU_Commission desk officers in the staff directory & didn’t get further than the head of unit. Now I know why. 😩
So much for #transparency & access for civil society to decision-makers responsible for dealing with actual content of legislative files & policy. #EUPolicy #lobby
