Ken takes fur wars to the Palace - Manchester Online

...Coun Ken Holt is backing a campaign by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) calling for an end to the slaughter of black bears.

PETA says it can take the entire hide of one bear to make just one guardsman's bearskin.

...PETA has urged members to back its Unbearable Cruelty campaign and write to Buckingham Palace. A spokesman for Prince Charles said he was aware of all of the letters, but would not comment further.

Manchester music legend Morrissey is also backing the campaign.

They'd probably rather die anyway then search through garbage cans for a lick of left-over peanut-butter.

      you all got nothing better to do with your time? It must be fucking dull in Canada if you're still having to keep this shit up.

      Here's a constructive suggestion for you...

      You could all go and log on to the Shania Twain site instead? Arcade fire maybe for the hipper amongst you? Just stop bothering the rest of the world with your endless drivel.

          This is ridiculous. What the hell do any of you expect from Moz? Slamming him for standing up for what he believes in! He's always supported animal rights, this is why I can't understand the reactions of some of you.
