Dog Meat Trade

Proceeding contribution from Steve Reed (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 5 November 2015. It occurred during Backbench debate on Dog Meat Trade.

I absolutely agree with the hon. Lady, and I am sure that British consumers would be horrified if there was any question of dog meat ending up on tables or in food products in the UK.

In conclusion, there can be no excuse for the intolerable suffering and cruelty inflicted on animals as a result of this trade. We need to do everything we can to support campaign groups in countries where dogs and cats are eaten. It is time to stamp out this barbaric trade.
