Thank you for contacting me about animal sentience.
First and foremost, I believe animals are sentient beings who can feel pain and suffering, and I would like to reassure you that strong action is being taken to reduce their risk of harm.
Thank you for contacting me about the fur trade and Early Day Motion 267.
Members of the Government do not, by convention, sign any Early Day Motions as doing so is likely to breach the Ministerial Codes rules on collective responsibility.
