If there was ever a call to action to respond to, surely it's this! Northern Ireland are considering banning hunting...and in their consultation they'll accept comments from anyone, from anywhere in the world! Need we say any more?!  Carlos, Julie, Dominic & Anthony discuss this, and a dozen other stories from the vegan & animal rights space from the last week or so.
