WILL readers join me and numerous other thinking people in campaigning to stop the veal crates in Holland, so that if the RSPCA and CIWF manage to get the British live calf exports banned the Dutch will not just replace them with calves from other European countries.
We need the Dutch to join with the northern Europeans in converting the French and other southern Europeans so this cruel trade is ended in all Europe.
To do this, as many letters as possible need to reach the Dutch Minister of Agriculture, bringing to his attention that the veal crate is banned in this country.
To help the calves please send your letters to Mr J J Van Aartsen, Ministerie Van Landbouw Yisserij, Postbus 20401, 2500 EF The Hague, Holland.
