Thank you to all MPs and Peers who have worked to end live exports in Parliament for years. And to all the orgs, campaigners and public who have tirelessly worked to end this vile trade. GB is the first in Europe to ban live animal exports & we hope other countries will introduce their own bans

The use of gestation crates for pigs in the US is just one example of a factory farming practice that causes immense suffering to millions of animals. This makes it essential to stand against legislative proposals that threaten to roll back animal welfare safeguards

Video shows vet Dr Steven McCulloch( who wrote our 2022 report on banning pig farrowing crates and further reports) talks on the suffering pigs are subjected to in gestation crates in the US, farrowing crate cages in the UK and why the veterinary profession must speak out to end these systems youtube.com/watch?v=BcY1JkqO…

Good to talk to @carolinenokes at the @CatsAdvocacy excellent parliamentary reception today. Cats Protection campaigns for a single point of search for microchipping, to ban electric shock collars, strengthen firework regulation, regulate cat breeding and calls on the government to take action to protect cats from further harm and ensure they are not left behind within the govt’s animal welfare agenda. It’s not too late to act

CAWF’s latest report ‘Who Owns British Farming? Vulnerability in the UK Food System’ shows that foreign enterprises now control approximately 45.5% of the UK’s own animal agriculture production and processing by revenue, with even higher levels in key sectors including pigs (52%) #FoodForThought conservativeanimalwelfarefou…

On #WorldOceanDay, we urge the government to implement the Animals (Low Welfare Activities Abroad) Act to ban the promotion and sale of cruel and exploitative animal experiences abroad. Dolphins belong in the wild ocean, where they can swim vast distances, live in complex family groups, and express their natural behaviours- not in captive dolphin entertainment venues - forced to spend decades in tiny, barren tanks that fail to meet their most basic welfare needs 🌊🐬 conservativeanimalwelfarefou…

While thousands of people visit farms today on Open Farm Sunday, there will be no open doors to the factory farms where millions of farmed animals spend their lives crammed in cages, hidden away in industrial units across the countryside #EndFactoryFarming

CAWF has released new research warning that the UK’s food system is increasingly exposed to global shocks, with control over production and supply steadily shifting beyond British borders. The report,’ Who Owns British Farming? Vulnerability in the UK Food System’, finds that the UK is facing a “double vulnerability” :a growing reliance on foreign corporate ownership within its domestic agricultural sector- undermining food sovereignty.

This #WorldEnvironmentDay it’s important to recognise one of the most significant yet often overlooked contributors to environmental degradation: factory farming. Industrial factory farming generates greenhouse gas emissions, drives deforestation for animal feed production, pollute waterways, degrade soils, and contribute to biodiversity loss. These impacts accelerate climate change while undermining the resilience of natural ecosystems. Our report ‘ The Harms of Factory Farms’ conservativeanimalwelfarefou…

I really like that animal well-being is an issue that many on the right and left agree on.

Here's what the pork industry doesn't want you to know about the way it sneaked a provision into the 2026 farm bill that would nullify ballot measures that improve animal welfare, while helping Chinese companies torture American pigs. The issue is personal to me, because we once raised pigs on our family farm, and I saw that these are not commodities but animals rather like dogs: smart with very distinct personalities. A naughty boy who punishes a single animal may be punished, but an adult who presides over the systematic abuse of hundreds of thousands of pigs as a business model is hailed as a visionary CEO -- and voters get that, and that's why they have backed laws that improve animal wellbeing. This is, remarkably, an issue that unites many liberals and conservatives alike; @TomiLahren, @Cernovich and @IngrahamAngle are among those who have been outspoken on this issue. I hope R and D members of Congress alike will stand firm, for the stakes are immense, with four pigs slaughtered around the clock on average all year. Here's a gift link to my piece: nytimes.com/2026/05/30/opini… I welcome your comments.

A powerful piece on the suffering of pigs in gestation crates in the US and why it’s important to speak out against legislative threats to animal welfare nytimes.com/2026/05/30/opini…

Last night we joined the parliamentary roundtable hosted by @lucydahlia and @animal_equality to discuss the government’s promise to ban foie gras imports. Good to hear the trade experts, scientists, legal specialists, advocates and NGOs whose insights reinforced the case for ending this cruel trade. Ban foie gras imports

Thank you to @lucydahlia for hosting our roundtable this evening to discuss @DefraGovUK’s promise to ban foie gras imports and how to ensure this terrible animal cruelty no longer enters the UK. Thank you to the extraordinary trade experts, scientists, legal specialists, advocates and NGOs for sharing their insights. More to come!👀 Watch an update below from our Policy and Advocacy Specialist below👇

Millions of laying hens in the UK are confined to cages so small that each bird has little more space than an A4 sheet of paper-far too little room to fully stretch their wings or express natural behaviours. Several countries have already moved to end these outdated systems. The UK should not be left behind. End the use of cages for laying hens
