Are you watching the King’s Speech tomorrow? We are certainly looking forward to the announcements, and hope that the UK government’s, plans to phase-out animal testing will be mentioned. The Labour Party's election party manifesto promised to, “partner with scientists, industry, and civil society as we work towards the phasing out of animal testing.” In support of a #CrueltyFree UK, over 14,000 people contacted their MPs or parliamentary candidates to #PledgeCrueltyFree and support policies that will phase out animal testing. 307 parliamentary candidates pledged their support for a cruelty-free future in the UK. We hope that 10 Downing Street has been listening! Stay tuned for an announcement in the King’s Speech tomorrow.

With just seven days until the UK General Election, now is your chance to help support a #CrueltyFree UK and raise your voice for animals, by asking your parliamentary candidates to pledge their support. We welcome The Labour Party’s manifesto pledge to phase out animal testing which states that Labour will, “partner with scientists, industry, and civil society as we work towards the phasing out of animal testing.” The Green Party manifesto also makes a positive commitment. It states that they, “will work towards an outright ban on all animal testing… and support the production, promotion and transition to nonanimal technologies for use in experiments,” whilst also opposing “the importation of monkeys for use in labs.” We re-issue our call on all other parties to clarify their commitment to ending animal testing: - The Liberal Democrat manifesto promised a “comprehensive new Animal Welfare Bill to ensure the highest standards possible" but made no specific mention of animal testing. - Despite making several commitments to increase funding for and the use of animal-free science, none of this is reflected in the 2024 Conservative Party manifesto. - The 2024 manifestos for Reform UK, Scottish National Party and Plaid Cymru do not feature any commitments on animal welfare. We will be calling for the next elected Government to develop a roadmap with clear targets and plans to phase out the use of animals in experiments.
