Ban the Sale, Import and Trade of Animal Fur

What the petition asks
The outdated and unnecessary fur trade which originates from the horrific suffering of an animal has no place in civilised society. The sale, import and trade of real animal fur must be banned
Animals for the fur trade are kept in appalling conditions and executed in a barbarous way which includes being beaten to death. The animal has its fur ripped off and the rest discarded with the animal often still alive. The ban of fur farms in the UK is not enough and the sale, import and trade of these furs must be banned.
