A CAMPAIGN to end animal testing for household products is being backed by Glasgow North East MP Willie Bain.

Mr Bain is ensuring he uses cleaning products which are cruelty-free, only using those approved under the BUAV’s humane standard - symbolised by the Leaping Bunny logo.

He said: “Everyone can show their support for ending the testing of cleaning products and other household items on animals by making good choices when they shop.

“It’s really important that people contact their MP, to urge them to hold the Government to its pledge to scrap the testing of cleaning products on animals as soon as possible.”

Michelle Thew, chief executive of the BUAV, said: “Glasgow now has a presence on BUAV’s cruelty-free map. We call on all politicians to follow William’s lead and sign up to this important campaign to end the cruelty and suffering inflicted on animals to test cleaning products.”
