Help struggling businesses - not fox hunting groups

Taxpayer funded grants should not be used to prop up groups profiting from animal cruelty. They should be spent on struggling small businesses.

Why is this important?

Shropshire County Council has given money that was intended to help businesses struggling because of COVID...to fox hunting groups. While shops on our high streets close their doors, aid that's meant to help them weather the Covid-19 crisis has gone to fund cruel bloodsports instead.

Animal welfare groups and some MPs are already kicking up a fuss. Now what's needed is a massive outcry from the public - to show we don't want public funds going to groups that are propping up this cruel practice. Will you sign the petition now?
