The
ban on hunting with dogs is under attack FAACE fought for years to bring in the law against hunting with dogs. We led the demonstration against the infamous yearly hare coursing event, “The Waterloo Cup”.
Now the ban on hunting with dogs is under attack.The Conservative party has given assurances to the hunt supporters that, if elected, they will repeal the law against hunting with dogs.
FAACE tries to be apolitical, but cannot stand by and do nothing
about this terrible betrayal of the animals by the Tories. If you
want to support the ban against hunting with dogs you can go to www.backtheban.com
where Hilary Benn is fighting for the animals. Condemnation

to bullfighting exhibition in the European Parliament The organizers are aware that the exhibition will take place in a hostile atmosphere, because in recent years the Euro Deputees repeatedly tried to get rid of the corrida. In January 2007 an impressive over 25% of the MEPs tried to get bullfighting banned with a written declaration within the EU (211 of 785 MEPs). Please write in protest to your MEP. FAACE supports EU-campaign to ban bullfighting Please support the written declaration 0002/2007 To write to your EU deputy, please refer to the following websites: INTERNATIONAL MOVEMENT AGAINST BULLFIGHTS: FAACE supports the call for a ban on bullfighting in Mexico Mexico City has the largest bullring in the world (50,000 seats). Please help collect signatures on the petition sheet provided by us and return it as soon as possible to FAACE, We will pass the signatures on to Mexico. Campaign against Margate mock bullfight Margate promotes bullfighting. Put together six bulls (the number that are killed in a bullfight), a matador (the bull killer), a ring that they enter. The Pamplona Bull Run, (where bulls are run into the bullring to be killed that night) and Hemingway (who did his best to promote bullfighting, and what have you got? A promotion of bullfighting whether Thanet District Council thinks so or not! From their own site: "A Spanish feel returns to Margate this Summer with the second Fiesta weekend on Saturday 31 July and Sunday 1 August. On the Saturday, street performers in the guise of six bulls, a matador, and a flamenco dancer will entertain with a parade along the promenade of Margate and enter a ring for a pyrotechnic finale. This contribution by IOTA has been inspired by the famous Pamplona Bull Run, Ernest Hemingway's 'The sun also rises' and a bit of Picasso thrown in for good measure!" State your opinion about it to the following addresses: sandy.ezekiel@thanet.gov.uk Campaign against bullfighting transmissions by SKY television Sky Television is selling the viewing of bullfighting live, as part of it's Sky World Family Pack. By this the company is not only breaking its own code of ethics but EU law (see also our press release). Community law is being violated by the transmission of live bullfights in the UK at a time when children are able to watch. In the UK bullfight transmissions can be received in some cases from 16.00 hrs on and for up to three hours.
Sky TV, in their Sky Sale, has come up with this cartoon. This is a cynical reference to the bullfighting and is an advertisement in very bad taste. If you, as a customer or a potential customer, would like to let Sky television know what you think of the live transmission of bullfights and the promotion of bullfighting, you may write to: skydigital@sky.com ,viewerr@bskyb.com and a copy to action@faace.co.uk Please also read this article
