  • Result on caged hens: Thanks you

    Great news: Yesterday the EU Council of Agriculture Ministers rejected Poland's attempt to delay the Europe-wide ban on barren battery cages. As a result, the ban is still due to come into force as planned in 2012.

    Thank you to the 10,214 dedicated Compassion supporters across Europe who lobbied on our behalf by sending emails, post cards and letters - once again, you have shown that we can get things done for farm animals when speaking with a united voice. This latest campaign also reiterates the need to be vigilant about the threats that remain, even when victories such as the forthcoming battery cage ban have been gained. Whatever the challenge, Compassion will continue to take decisive action until the battery cage ban is fully implemented across Europe.

    it does make me think that the european commission may have its uses,it seems they listen to common sense,i dont suppose we could import them to show our lot how to listen to peoples cares,whether its brown/cameron or the libdems,they all think they know best...we had that with madam maggie and look at the results,where i am,they have never really recovered.....

        It's fantastic news for chooks Here's hoping that imports from further afield work out more expensive than EU eggs after 2012 so there'll be no call for battery eggs from anywhere

          I think the hard work has just began in the education of people in buying free range and supporting british farmers rather than cheap caged hens from non eu countries
