A national campaign against Flannels in order to end their sale of fur and urge them to sign a fur-free policy is set to be launched on a national scale, further information can be found within this article.

Boycott Flannels is an upcoming new national campaign that is set to be launched with the aim to bring an end to the sale of fur at Flannels and urge them to sign a fur-free policy.

Flannels have stores in Birmingham, Cardiff, Nottingham, Leeds, Liverpool and Manchester. We in conjunction with various animal rights groups across the country are preparing for the official launch date which will be on the 04th January 2012.

There will be plenty happening against Flannels including regular demonstrations outside of their stores, a national day of action, and various other actions, all of which will be revealed in due course!

The campaign website can be found at:  http://boycottflannels.blogspot.com (though the address is soon to be www.boycottflannels.net)

The fur industry has been exposed many times for horrific cruelty to animals and today fur is widely unaccepted by the British public.

Some animals are caught in the wild by painful traps which often break their bones, set by trappers they can spend days in agony before the traps are visited again. Other animals are bred specifically for the industry, and thus are practically born straight into the cage in order to later be killed just for their fur.

The fur industry has been exposed by many undercover investigation teams, and each time extremely disturbing cruelty has been discovered including vile conditions and awful practices. Animals have often been found living squashed together amongst wire-mesh cages where they can barely move and 'workers' have also been caught routinely hitting, beating, throwing and stamping on animals.

The fur industry holds no ethics whatsoever and the sole purpose of the trade is to make money regardless of the extreme suffering inflicted on countless animals. Animals are often electrocuted and also skinned and dismembered alive for their coats as has been seen on a regular basis through exposes.

For information on how you will be able to get involved with the campaign, please see the campaign website.

Thank you!
