A big thank you to Ricky Gervais whose two retweets this month have brought our "Ireland - Ban Fur Farming" message to over half a million people on Twitter https://twitter.com/banbloodsports/status/1044330461512773632

On Ireland's three remaining fur farms, tens of thousands of mink are permanently caged and at six months of age, they are pulled from the cages and poisoned to death with Carbon Monoxide gas before the fur is pulled from their bones. It is time for Ireland to join the growing list of countries in the EU and around the world which have already banned fur farming.

Everybody - please spare a minute to email "Ban Fur Farming in Ireland" to  leo.varadkar@oir.ie, michael.creed@oireachtas.ie, finegael@finegael.ie, micheal.martin@oireachtas.ie, info@fiannafail.ie

Also contact your local TDs - more details below...
