Virginia Fallon with a plea to National & ACT... can we just let the barbaric export of live animals die a death.

#Fallon #LiveExport

I invite all people, #vegan, #vegetarian, #omnivore, that love animals and are against needless cruelty, to sign this petition which calls for an end to the live sheep export trade. It is truly ridiculous that a pet #dog or #cat is not allowed on the majority of cruise liners (perhaps there is a single exception or two out there and not counting for service dogs), to accompany you on a cruise, yet #sheep, #horses, #goats, #cattle #buffalo and #camels are perfectly able to travel thousands of kilometres in conditions one step above a shit hole, only to be slaughtered/killed in ways seriously suspect of Australias laws against animal abuse.

There is talk of ending the trade, specifically the live sheep export trade, but this petition by the #AnimalJusticeParty will go a long way in making that reality come so much sooner.

And of course money comes into the picture. Ending all 'livestock' export will result in a loss of $1.6 billion dollars to the Australian economy, the money which predominantly goes in rural communities. In addition to the ban of this export, alternatives need to be incorporated so that the community doesn't suffer.

I do not normally ask this, but if you could boost this toot so that more people can sign this petition on behalf of all the sheep out there, that would be much appreciated. 🐑🐏

I spoke to @SkyNewsAust about why #liveexport of #sheep should not be phased out. This policy will not improve global #AnimalWelfare https://twitter.com/livestock_the/status/1632981881749934080

Pete the Vet talks about what's needed: conjoining dog licences and microchipping (indeed, why doesn't the licence also have a photo of the dog?) ending State support for greyhound racing (and I hope the vicious coursing too), ending "live exports", help with vet care for the poor https://www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle/people/arid-41041505.html #PeteTheVet #microchip #LiveExport #greyhoundracing

Urge Ireland's Agriculture Minister to end live export! #banliveexport #endliveexport #liveexport

Investigations reveal young Irish bulls being subjected to horrific slaughter in the Middle East. But rather than act to stop the cruelty, the Irish government is seeking to grow the live export trade. Please send an urgent message to Agriculture Minister Charlie McConalogue telling him that Irish citizens want animals protected from suffering.

Even industry doesn’t think the #liveexport of sheep 🐑 has much of a future so I wonder why Labor just won’t deliver on their election promise and ban it? #banliveexport #endliveexport
