I post this in solidarity with the good work of the people of Camden in the Stop Camden Animal Lab campaign. However I want to make it clear that this is not posted as part of, or by any member of that group.

These postings show just how ill thought out this lab idea is. We are begging the government to rethink this lab idea through and to build something more appropriate for the community.

This week an article in the Camden Gazette about the lab and my concerns and quotes on this are mentioned.

While each are entitled to there own opinions there is a dangerous theory spreading through AR that the "the world is being taken over by aliens and 12 foot lizards". Members of the public on anti fur demos have been accused of being aliens. While I did not witness this myself I do condemn whoever is encouraging people to believe these things and the theory "that it is OK to attack people because they are aliens disguised as humans". I condemn this. These people accuse anyone who speaks out against them of being "fantasists" or "living in a fantasy world". I should point out that the majority of animal rights activists do not believe in the "aliens" theory but the spread of this is very worrying.


I am against animal testing like a lot of people including Sainsburys and I believe that there should be research into alternatives. I support the work of people such as Safer Medicines Campaign - www.curedisease.net and peaceful groups such as Animal Aid, Uncaged etc.
I think that the sensible way for the campaigns to go ahead is to educate people about science in an unbiased way.
A number of people in the community do not agree with animal testing. Others are not against animal testing but want alternatives to the lab that are better for the community. These same people do not want to join an extreme group and we do have to get to know people and set ground rules on things before we can have large meetings, demos or fundraisers involving numbers of people from the community including young people.

I agree that people have to respect each other and that it is for the best that some of the more radical groups stick to their own thing and that the community campaign remains exactly that....an inclusive one that believes that people have a right to a say safely.
