“Millions of animals continue to be exploited every day for food, consumer products, so-called ‘sports’ or other forms of entertainment, and as models for human disease. Animals Count is committed to ending animal suffering through political action.”

“It is time for a full re-evaluation of our role on this planet. Nothing less will be enough. And it cannot be too soon. The time to start is now. I say this as a scientist and a human being. As a scientist, there is no proof available that we are more important than the rest of the sentient creatures on this planet. As a human being … in my heart, I know that the terrible indignities and pain suffered by these pitiful animals are unjustifiable in humanitarian terms. And do not tell me that the lives of our children depend on torturing these creatures. They have lied to you. They do not. I have all the evidence. And so does the new political party Animals Count, whose aims I support wholeheartedly.”

Nicholas Ball, Actor

“I have long felt that until we begin to treat the animals that share our planet, both wild and domestic, with dignity and respect, we, as a species, will not evolve any further. If we can respect their right to existence, then, hopefully, we can learn to respect our own. Organizations that speak up for the rights of all other creatures have been badly needed. I believe, ‘Animals Count,’ helps to fill that void. They have my full support.”

”Animals Count is raising awareness and aiming to influence other political parties”

‘The animals can’t vote. That’s why we need a political party that stands up for them.”

”They [Animals Count] are pioneers and they realise that nine out of ten do not understand what they are doing,but fortunately, many people do not want to be nine out of ten anymore.”

“I was very interested to read about ‘Animals Count’. I wholeheartedly support it as a useful way of campaigning on animal issues.”

“I wish Animals Count every success. With our first-past-the-post system of election here in the UK [they] will not get any candidate elected, but [they] could pressurise some of the other parties in closely-contested seats.”

”Supporting Animals Count is a good idea, informative, important and fun!”

”I heartily endorse what Animals Count is doing”

‘Today’s political culture depends on how much money a party has and advertising.”

‘Animals Count promises to bring Great Britain into a new era of concern for animals…”
