As of Monday 28/08/16, the live export ban to Japan has been lifted. Although the ban was bought about by the Japanese (some dairy cattle tested positive to Bovine disease). Japan have now approved the trade to begin again. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-08-26/japan-live-export-ban-lifted/7789576 Sadly I did not make it to the Rally on Monday, I have been very ill, then had migraines just to top it off. If anyone has any information on the Rally, please share it, I cannot find anything about the outcome. Please be a bit patient with me, I'm still not 100%. I understand "they" won't ban live export overnight, but does that mean we just lay down our swords and walk away? We need to keep up the fight, the emails, letters...whatever we can to stop this cruel, barbaric trade. 75,000 + supporters and to think it started with 1, if we can get 75,000 supporters, I have hope we WILL get this murderous trade banned.
