Activists bare almost all in animal proposal rally
The two women and one man were body-painted as farm animals, to symbolise the three million cattle, pigs, sheep and horses transported long distances across Europe each year for fattening and slaughter.
Speakers at the Compassion in World Farming (CIWF) protest said the proposed EU animal transport rules drawn up by the Irish EU presidency were unacceptable. The proposals are to be voted on at the EU Farm Council meeting in Luxembourg next week.
