A blow to the right to peaceful protest on behalf of animals this week, as the UK Parliament voted in favour of making any kind of protest at an animal testing site illegal. Whilst this is still to be confirmed as law, there is much to conisder on how this could affect some of the existing regular protests that take place on behalf of animals. As well as this story, Shane, Make, Kate & Ant dissect nine other bits of news from the last 7 days in the vegan & animal rights space.
