It's been a very long time since the BBC even pretended to be impartial on climate change, says Chris Morrison. The truth is, decades of crying 'Fire!' in the climate theatre have left the BBC with net zero credibility.

COP30 is Trump's Eisenhower moment, says Dr Tilak Doshi. Just as Eisenhower's Suez intervention ended Europe's pretensions to empire, Trump's energy realism is ending Brussels's grandiloquent claims to climate leadership.

Dun Laoghaire Co. Council to vote on Animal Circus Ban

category national | animal rights | news report author Tuesday June 03, 2008 21:16author by Laura Broxson - National Animal Rights Associationauthor email naracampaigns at gmail dot comauthor address PO Box 11019, Dublin 2 Report this post to the editors

SAY NO TO ANIMAL CIRCUSES!

Hi,

It has been brought to our attention that the motion to ban animal circuses (on council-owned land), in Dun Laoghaire, will be voted on next Monday.

Unfortunately though, it appears that a lot of the councillors will be voting against the motion. One reason in particular is that, although they have been receiving emails and letters urging them to vote in favour of the ban, they have only been hearing from either animal-rights activists or people living outside of Dun Laoghaire. As a result, they are not convinced that people living in the area don't want animal circuses.

So, we are asking everyone who lives in the area covered by the Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council, to please contact them again (without affiliating yourself to any animal rights/welfare group or political party), asking them to support the ban, and stating where you live. If you have any friends or family living in the area, please ask them to write in too!

Here are the councillors' email addresses again:

jbailey@cllr.dlrcoco.ie, mbailey@cllr.dlrcoco.ie, mbaker@cllr.dlrcoco.ie,
jbyrne@cllr.dlrcoco.ie, bconway@cllr.dlrcoco.ie, louisecosg@cllr.dlrcoco.ie,

Many Thanks,

I just want to say thank you to Laura for posting a comment about the councellors in Dun Laoghaire & their choice to vote against the motion of banning circuses.
I have written to all the councellors in Dun Laoghaire, letting them know my feelings on circuses and other animal acts.
I am an animal lover and do my best to help them in whatever way I can and I hope that I have made a difference in the councellors decision on the motion!

Thank you again,
Lizzie Delaney
