My view on the government’s plan - “Phasing out animal testing faster”
A Journalist asked me what my view on the government’s new roadmap on “Animal testing to be phased out faster” which was announced on the 11th November 2025.
-> Read the full article by The Londoners, December issue.
-> My bit starts at the last two paragraphs of page 6, and page 7.
Snippets from my bit:
“Despite being vegan, I was shocked to only have found out about the scale of animal testing six months ago”
“The government’s roadmap to phase out animal testing faster is exactly what the UK has been missing and much welcomed but I will continue to keep my eyes peeled until the implementation of the plan has been worked out and announced.”
“However, I do not believe the government has done enough historically.”
“There is evidence (The Rawle report, 2023) that shows the 3Rs principle isn’t always followed rigorously. True change needs leadership from the government, not leaving it up to those with vested interest to mark their own homework.”
