Call to Action: More Than One in Five People Witness Online Animal Abuse

Target: Keir Starmer, Prime Minister of UK

Goal: Implement stronger measures against online animal abuse and increase public awareness efforts.

Recent data from the RSPCA highlights a concerning trend: over 22% of residents in East England have witnessed animal cruelty online. This statistic is part of the RSPCA’s latest Animal Kindness Index, which also notes a rise in animal cruelty reports across England and Wales. With 962 reports of animal cruelty in East England alone from January to June 2024, the issue is more pressing than ever.

Notably, incidents such as a cat suffering horrific injuries from an illegal gin trap in Boston underscore the severity of the problem. The RSPCA’s No Animal Deserves Cruelty campaign aims to address these issues, emphasizing that animal cruelty reports are on the rise.

In the broader UK context, reports of intentional harm and beatings of animals increased last summer, with the RSPCA preparing for another challenging season. The charity’s CEO, Chris Sherwood, stressed the need for social media companies to take responsibility and remove content that normalizes animal harm. Implement stronger measures against online animal abuse.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear Keir Starmer,

I am writing to express deep concern regarding the rising incidents of animal cruelty witnessed online, particularly in East England, where over 22% of residents have reported such incidents. This alarming statistic, highlighted in your recent Animal Kindness Index, underscores the urgent need for stronger measures against online animal abuse.

The distressing case of a cat caught in an illegal gin trap in Boston is just one example of the severe cruelty animals face. With 962 reports of animal cruelty in East England from January to June 2024, it is evident that more needs to be done to protect these vulnerable beings.

I urge the RSPCA to intensify efforts to combat online animal abuse by working with social media platforms to remove harmful content and increase public awareness. Strengthening your No Animal Deserves Cruelty campaign and ensuring stringent action against offenders will help create a safer environment for all animals.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

  2. Social media is so deeply infested with stuff youd have to blind yourself to avoid seeing it frankly. But while theres a buck to be made the likes meta and tiktok keep rolling on, making their blood money. We are a hairs width from actual snuff murders(which have never entirely gone away) turning up on the mainstream now. Our souls are dying and we stand at the gate to hell.
