The cruelty transport of unweaned calves direct from Ireland to France, and from Scotland, via Ramsgate, England; for further fattening in Spain.
The following video allows you to see just what happens to the tiny calves exported by Cassidy and McCreery from Ewing’s staging post at Dunbretton farm, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland, via Ramsgate (England) on the Export ship ‘Joline’ (2 pictures below) owned and operated by J. Onderwater the Dutchman. It also shows Irish calves exported directly from Ireland via Sea Link ferries to Cherbourg in France.
Yet another ‘animal issue’ that the EU wants to wipe it hands of.
EU Elections 23-26 May2019. Are they worth voting for ? – not when they allow this !
We will be publishing more on the EU and its failures for animal welfare in the coming weeks. We will also link in to Serbia’s wish to become an EU member state; but at the moment I would like you to see and read Venus’s excellent post on Serbia which she published a few days ago – https://worldanimalsvoice.com/2019/05/04/serbia-land-of-collective-animal-torment/
Officially, to become an EU member state, any nation wishing to join the EU must show (under the Copenhagen Agreement) that it IS enforcing its own national ‘Rules of Law’. Serbia does not do this with animal welfare; thus we consider that Serbia should NOT be allowed to join the EU, as it is non-compliant. More on this about the law in the link https://serbiananimalsvoice.com/about-serbian-animals/
But we all know that existing EU member states such as Romania are not enforcing EU legislation anyway. Despite numerous reports and visits by MEP’s to Romania to document their terrible animal welfare status, the EU simply walks away from the data. It is the same with EU wide live animal transport legislation; the EU simply does not accept any of the hard evidence presented to them showing that EU rules on live animal transport are NOT being enforced.
We will go deeper into these issues over the next few weeks, before the EU elections; where ‘EU citizens’ supposedly have their vote on the EU system and the people (MEP’s) that represent them. We know from bee killing pesticides through to animal transport, the voice of the ‘EU man’ is not really listened to; but the voice of lobbyists for the ‘Mafia’s’ which seem to run the EU are always listened to. They have the money to lobby to get what they want; so they always win.
For now, I leave you with a few more links for your review; which show the ‘EU system’ for animal welfare does not work:

A few days ago, the Austrian organization “RespekTiere” published a shocking report on the situation of animals in Serbia.
How many times have we been in Serbia and always have we not only heard unbelievable stories of animal cruelty but also had to testify again and again.
An end to the violence against the most helpless in our society, against the animals, is not foreseeable, quite the contrary – the situation seems to be getting worse and worse! ”
That’s how the report starts. Because it is quite long, only the main points of this report are told.
Already in the course of our first trips to the center of the Balkan Peninsula, we were overwhelmed by the sheer dimension of violence against the animals – yes, in Romania, Bulgaria or similar countries, terrible things happen in relation to the so helplessly delivered animals.
But while elsewhere in the majority, individual offenders let their madness run wild, they happen in the country on the Danube in the collective, and so the quality and quantity of animal cruelty is probably unique.
In fact, the crime on animals is such a widespread phenomenon that one must already speak of a pattern; or a virus, nestled in the DNA of certain groupings, inherited by the bloodline.
We no longer want to torture her with terrible individual cases; The fact is, we have to act. Do not allow such a concentrated madness right outside the front door no longer ignored. By the way, Serbia is a candidate for EU membership; a connection to the Union is envisaged for 2025.
But as long as such terrible things happen to the animals, the country can not and will not be ready for the EU, the question of accesion cannot even be asked.
And we mean: WITH or WITHOUT being a member of the EU,the Middle Ages for animals remain the same (almost) everywhere.
Therefore, the best would be if all (still) EU member countries would go out of this crime syndicate, called EU. How England did it.

Injured buffaloes at the Do-Son Buffalo Fight Festival, Hanoi
Animal welfare groups, the media and the public are shocked by animal cruel videos shot in the capital Hanoi.
A pack of hunting dogs mangles and kills a single boar – as a “highlight” of a club event.
The fight was organized by a group of Argentine mastiff enthusiasts in an empty field in the southwest of Hanoi. The video shows a single boar released from a cage and a pack of mastiffs mauling the animal, cheered on by their owners and watchers. As the boar’s squeals eventually subside, all that is left is a bloody mess.
The recording was made on March 18, 2018 in the suburb of Hanoi. Millions have seen it on Facebook – and damn. The graphic footage has invoked wrath and revulsion from viewers on social media. Vu Ngoc Thanh, an animal expert, said the event was “barbaric and uncivilized.”
“Where is the humanity in this?” he said.
But despite the general anger over this bloodthirsty event, the organizers remain stubborn.
One of the participating young men told the media: “We do not stop because it’s not illegal – we just do not want it on social networks anymore.”
However, the brazen comments on the participants ignore the attitude of the authorities, which have pledged to crack down on it.
Animal welfare has become increasingly important in Vietnam’s public debate in recent years.
Animals Asia released a cruel Spring Festival in which a pig had been chopped in half. The condemnation by the public and their demand to suppress such practices resulted in the prohibition of numerous barbarous festivals.
In Germany, there are also atrocities against wild boars, which are crushed by hunting dogs.
Not at festivals, but in the hunt for blood orgies in the woods.
But where cruelty happens in the name of tradition, we will never be tired of publishing it.
No matter where it happens.
We no longer leave this brutal, morbid and irrational custom to a small group of this society that wants to savor its sadism and crime under the guise of tradition. We act, now and everywhere.

Make note and put it in your diary.
If your employer has never dealt with this before; take time out and try to ask them to allow it to happen – promote it. As the info below shows, it could improve productivity by having your dog with you for the day !
Friday, 21st June 2019 (21/6/19) is the Bring Your Dog to Work Day.
Take Your Dog to Work Day (TYDTWDay) was created by Pet Sitters International and first celebrated in 1999. PSI created the day to encourage businesses to allow dogs in the workplace for one Friday each year to celebrate the great companions dogs make and promote their adoptions from local shelters, rescue groups and humane societies. PSI believes that through the event dog-less co-workers will be encouraged to adopt when they witness the human-animal bond. The week leading up to Take Your Dog To Work Day is Take Your Pet To Work Week.
