While I plan to sign this petition, I feel that it is another huge reason why we need an ethical imports law for the entire EU. A law that says, companies importing to the EU must provide proof that ALL animals (including Homo sapiens) involved in the manufacture and supply process have been treated with at least minimum standards of welfare to be laid down by the EU I realise this is a huge ambition and I dont know a tenth of the details that would need to be worked out but this just seems right to me. If we can ban battery eggs then surely we can insist on human workers being afforded some basic human rights?
