> Protecting Animals in Democracy (PAD) is a historic new initiative set up
by
> campaigners at Uncaged. As an organisation, PAD is not affiliated to any
> political party.
>
> PAD's mission is to tackle animal cruelty democratically through the
> electoral process. PAD seeks to achieve fair political representation for
> the public's concern for the welfare and rights of non-human animals. We
> also aim to encourage a rational and informed public debate about the
moral
> status of non-humans, the acceptability of practices that cause suffering
to
> animals, and how our political system can be reformed to ensure that
animals
> are given the protection they deserve as inherently valuable sentient
> individuals with physical, emotional and social needs.
>
> The short-term goal is to put animal protection on to the agenda at the
> forthcoming General Election, expected in May. Our aim is to empower and
> inform voters, and encourage tactical voting that protects the ban on
> hunting, while helping candidates and parties who will oppose the
> Government's callous policies on factory farming and animal testing. By
> showing that votes are won and lost on animal issues, we can make sure
that
> politicians take cruelty to animals seriously.
