"The (UK) government has allowed animal testing for makeup ingredients to resume despite a 25-year ban.
It changed a policy on animal testing to align with EU chemical rules, according to a High Court ruling.
The High Court said on Friday that the government was acting legally after a case was brought by animal rights activists.
More than 80 brands have said they are "dismayed" by the government's new position..."

So, the U.K. Gov is insisting on animal testing of cosmetics, despite the cosmetics companies saying it is unnecessary. #animalwelfare #animaltesting #cosmetics #EU #HMG #tories Bastards

The utter damage this #ToryFascistDictatorship will do before getting booted just gets worse. After a TWENTY FIVE year ban, the bunch of twisted dicks are dropping the ban on cosmetic #animaltesting.

#Neuralink's animal research #oversight board may pose #conflictsofinterest

I'm all for protecting workers but plenty of safe chemicals that cosmetic manufacturers can use without cruel #animaltesting . Sneaking this disgusting & regressive policy out during #LocalElections & #Coronation typical of accountability fearing #Conservatives https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-65484552

"At Musk’s brain-chip startup, animal-testing panel is rife with potential conflicts"
The #FDA rejected #Neuralink's first application for human tests owing to device safety concerns. The lack of independent ethical oversight should kill off the programme completely. Or am I being naive?
