Activists stood up for the animals being tortured and murdered inside Sequani limited (see  http://www.vivisection.info/ssat) late afternoon who held anti-vivisection banners during a peaceful protest opposite the vivisection lab, once again exposing the animal murderers that carry out their cowardly and perverted work destroying animals on the doorstep of the town of Ledbury.

Both The Feathers Hotel and The Malthouse (  http://www.vivisection.info/ssat/13.08.06.html ) restaurant in Ledbury have now taken foie gras (  http://www.goveg.com/feat/foie/ ) off the menu. This was verified today by an activist that went and checked both outlets for foie gras.

Sample Letter:
---------------------

Dear Sir/ Madam,

I understand that your restaurant serves 'foie gras' which is a cruel delicacy where geese and ducks are force fed up to three pounds of grain a day until their livers swell up to ten times their normal size becoming diseased then sold under the name foie gras.

A high percentage of these birds that live in factory farm conditions abroad cannot even stand up properly after being force fed these huge amounts of grain.

The practice of rearing geese and ducks for foie gras production is outlawed in the UK.

Please look into the cruelty involved in producing foie gras using the link below and remove it from your menu.

Until you stop serving foie gras I will boycott your restaurant and encourage everyone I know to do the same.

I look forward to your reply on this issue.

Yours sincerly,

[name]

A lone activist was present outside Sequani limited this morning from 7.00am singing songs of compassion to workers that were entering the animal death camp to spend the day torturing and murdering animals whilst others in employment at sequani logged the pointless deaths of non-humans onto computers.

Activists displayed Stop Live Exports banners and posters outside the National sheep Association and National Beef Association's Headquarters in Malvern, Worcestershire.

Support from the passing public was as good as it always is at this location whilst the animal abusers in question (NSA/NBA) were named and shamed for supporting the disgusting and evil trade in live animal exports (  http://www.ciwf.org.uk/campaigns/primary_campaigns/long_distance.html )
