On Tuesday January 31st '06, activists from Bath & Bristol took to the
streets to protest against several clothes stores which sold real
animal fur. The group made their presence known, with banners,
leaflets, whistles, air horns and a megaphone. The Bath Cronicle
arrived to report the actions in their newspaper, and the police also
turned up to moan about the noise.

6 out of 7 shops decided to stop all fur sales and told the group they
are starting a 'no-fur policy'.

Only John Anthony continues to sell real rabbit fur, and so they can
look forward to lots more protests at their stores in Bristol, Bath,
Bournemouth, Swindon and Oxford, in the near future.
