Re: MP's reject animals feel pain.
I had a look to see which MPs had voted against including the animal sentience clause - just to make sure I never voted for any of them in future.
Apart from one Independent MP, all those MPs who voted against this Clause 30 were Tory or DUP.
Not one Tory voted for it.
Sickening that they put party politics above matters of conscience.

The vote was very marginal so I hope some animal rights rigorous campaigning will force them to re-think.
I've signed a petition calling to repeal this decision - will you?
