Received this the other day:
Dear Reader
Petitioning the Prime Minister seems to be very much in vogue at present, with the media giving a great deal of coverage to Number 10’s dedicated website. A new petition has been set up via that website in support of animal research, stating:
Animal research has enabled scientists to find treatments for cancer, vaccines and antibiotics. This does not advocate using animals unnecessarily but animal research is required because sometimes there are no other viable alternatives. In addition it is unrealistic to force animal research to stop by a certain date since nobody can predict future scientific progress in finding other methods that produce accurate results compared with those from animal research. It is for these reasons this petition calls for continued support for animal research.
If you would like to support this petition, it can be found at: http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/animalresearch/
Thanks again for your continuing support.
Yours
