New National Fur Target - Flannels Group

ANTI-FUR | 26.11.2009 04:17 | Animal Liberation | Birmingham | Liverpool | Sheffield

*** NEW NATIONAL FUR TARGET ***



The Flannels Group have, yet again, broken their pledge of staying fur-free and are currently stocking fox and coyote trimmed jackets in a number of stores, including Leeds and Nottingham.

Over the past five years, the company have issued several policies stating that the items of concern will not be returned to their stores, but yet again this has been swept aside along with the lives of animals killed for those garnments.

Earlier this month, Flannels beleived they would have to file for administration following a downturn in overall income, however enlisted the services of two Deloitte & Tousche partners to sit on their board of management as nominees directors. A 'solution' was brought up which means that Flannels get to keep less than half their income, with the the other 60% going to creditors. Due to this, we are also calling for anti-fur protests outside the offices of Deloitte where the directors who reside on the Flannels board are based.

:: NATIONAL WEEKEND OF ACTION AGAINST FLANNELS ::
Fri 12th - Sun 14th December
Please organise demo's outside your local Flannels store as part of the National Weekend of Action. In the run-up to Christmas, Flannels literally cannot afford to lose custom so it is important that we let their customers make an informed choice about whether to shop with a company continuing to support the fur trade.
