#KeptAnimalsBill
We are disappointed to learn that the #UKGovernment has scrapped the #KeptAnimalsBill - prohibiting keeping primates as pets.
At Monkey Haven we re-home many primates who are ex-pets & help provide sanctuary for monkeys like Malta - sadly a victim of the illegal pet trade

We are outside of Downing Street to demand that Rishi Sunak reinstates the Kept Animals Bill!

I just voted to end puppy smuggling.
The Tories have ditched plans to crack down on illegal puppy farms and animal smuggling.
It’s yet another broken Tory promise.
#KeptAnimalsBill
Last August, during a leadership election, Rishi Sunak’s team wrote me this letter assuring he looked forward to championing the #KeptAnimalsBill . This week he signed off on its destruction, abandoning promised protections to stop puppies, sheep, primates & others suffering 1/3
WE PROTESTED PARLIAMENT!
Following the betrayal of animals with the #KeptAnimalsBill being scrapped, AnimalJusticeProject activists descended onto Parliament to demand the Bill be reinstated & amended to include ALL animals.

#LivesNotStock
Can we all agree that exporting live animals is cruel?
Before the #KeptAnimalsBill was dropped, the UK was set to be the first European country to ban it.
Now, we want to make sure ALL political parties address key animal welfare issues ➡️ four-paws.org.uk/AnimalsMatter
#AnimalsMatter
Between 2016, the first attempt to increase animal cruelty sentencing in England and Wales and 2021, when it finally passed through Parliament, there were 2953 convicted abusers who benefited from the delays, and a tragic trail of victims affected. #KeptAnimalsBill
BREAKING: The motion to reintroduce the #KeptAnimalsBill has been rejected by the House of Commons. Animals needed MPs to come together today for progress to be made, but very disappointingly that didn’t happen.
Thanks to all the MPs who spoke in support of the Bill.
In the two years since #PetAbduction was added to #KeptAnimalsBill (& Bill was dropped), over 4,000 families have been torn apart by dog theft in England & Wales. Concerned by this? Please tag your MP & ask them to support #PetTheftReform 🐾pettheftreform.com RT
Despite being a manifesto commitment, the #KeptAnimalsBill which aimed to address the cruel #PuppySmuggling trade has been dropped 😔 We urge the Government to keep its promises and make sure their new proposals protect animals suffering from this practice 🐕😢
Following a recommendation from the #PetTheftTaskforce , the #Government added #PetAbduction 'taking of pets' to the #AnimalWelfare #KeptAnimalsBill in November 2021.
The Government dropped the Kept Animals Bill in May 2023! Pls sign & save #PetTheftReform petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6401…
The Government must put animal welfare back on the table.
In May, the Government announced it would be shelving the #KeptAnimalsBill .
The Bill’s disappearance will have a real impact on the uncertain future of tens of thousands of animals.

The #KeptAnimalsBill was in the #Tory manifesto!🤔
It was flying through parliament and all agreed to stop horrors like this.🐶💔
By killing the bill they have managed to betray animals and themselves!🤬
