12 year old schoolgirl's petition to end goldies as fairground prizes #1
Saw this on PFK today - go Emily! Maybe Government will find it hard to ignore a 12 year old

Nathan Hill posted the link to the petition on facebook so for all those who haven't been drawn into the world of FB and want to sign the petition I've added it to our INJAF site here:

Thanks Suey for flagging.

Signed up (again!). Wonder when the UK Government will finally get some b*lls and tackle this, once and for all? Wonder how they would feel about kittens being given away for want of an example, in plastic carrier bags?

Other countries have adopted this stance already.

For gods sake whats the matter with the adults that are supposed to be in charge?
If a 12 year old can see how wrong this is Why can't they?
Good luck Emily i truely hope you can make a difference x
The day you stop caring is the day you should stop keeping any pet whether fur or fins!

I've posted it on my Facebook, but seems like no one in Vietnam cares
