Vegan Week

214- Red Tractor advert banned due to false claims. Whoops!


Listen Later

It may not have been down to the ridiculous lines peddled by Red Tractor that their animals are humanely slaughtered, or the misleading line about every cow having their own personal vet...but nonetheless, the twenty-second ad may no longer be shown...as an advert (this hasn't stopped the BBC having it available to watch on their website however!) Dominic, Julie & Anthony discuss this, as well as analysing a further eight of the week's vegan & animal rights stories from across the world.
