73- "A vote for Labour is a vote for animals"
Episode description
In the build-up to the UK General Election, Labour have laid down a marker, announcing the proposed ban of foie gras imports- if they are to get elected on 4th July. Can we believe it? Is it enough to convince us to vote Labour? And is it any different from the Conversative Party's reneged promise from a couple of years ago?
Carlos & Ant discuss this and several other of the week's vegan & animal rights-related news.
