Non-Humans First! Its just common sense!

In the past this blog as posted some unhelpful crap about how we all need to work together to exclude all that don’t agree with human rights. But we now see this was rooted in human privilege and, frankly, a lot of bollocks!

We have seen the fights over human rights issues break up a movement that is meant to be about non-human animals rights and we are fed up with this shit. These same 'human rights' enforcers in the animal rights movement, who try to ban or fight with anyone that slightly deviates from human rights ideology have no issue with taking part in human rights events full of speciesists! This makes there stance hypocritical at best, human supremacist at worse!

Does that mean human rights doesn’t matter? Of course not. But denying non-human animals allies over it isn't any sort of answer!

That’s why Animal Warfare now backs: Non-Humans First Declaration (read it in full)

Joan Court: An Interview with the Animal Rights Granarchist!

Never underestimate Joan Court, at first glance she could be any ordinary OAP, but this could not be further from the truth.  I interviewed Joan, a 90 year-old animal rights campaigner, about her extraordinary life and work.  Joan has gone on hunger strike; chain herself to railings, occupied the Canadian embassy and at 86 embarked on a mission to confront the illegal fishing vessels with environmental enforcement group Sea Shepherd. Today Joan Court is still active in the Cambridge animal rights scene to such an extent police documents once bizarrely said she 'was the leader of SHAC'!

Marmite vs. BNP – “Whoever wins, we lose”

The far-right racists of the British National Party (BNP), you may re-call, ran a rather strange party broadcast with a Marmite jar in the corner of the screen at the last election. The advert was apparently a dismal attempt at humour using the strap line - 'Love Britain, Vote BNP' which as somehow supposed to spoof Marmite's 'Either You Love It or You Hate It' slogan.

It turns out Marmite's owners the animal experimenting speciesists Unilever were very angry about this and got in the lawyers. Personally I don't see what they were moaning about I really don't see how you can further besmirch the reputation of a company already linked to cruel, pointless animal abuse for the next ingredient in their consumerist household product – but that's just me. Anyhow the up shot is that the BNP are going to have to pay Unilever a (big) undisclosed amount of cash after the racists wimped out of facing the multinational in court. 

Rumours are that the BNP could be on the brink of bankruptcy over this – which is hilarious if true – but with the serious downside that the extremists at Unilever are set to benefit. Our job now is to bring Unilever trouble themselves, this does not mean bankrupting them it just means causing them to lose more than they gain from continuing to use animal tests. Unilever are in it for the money, if it's financially more profitable to not torment little creatures they will stop, so let's make it happen.  It's time to bring down all oppression once and for all. Animal liberation!
