Hi, Here is some more information about people to contact to show your disgust with regards to the use of animals in circuses. This will be specifically aimed towards the circus in Newark (The 'Great' British Circus) who use many animals.

These ministers need emailing or writing to about banning wild animals from circuses. Mention domestic if you like but I'm afraid they won't include them which is so annoying and sad.

Newark Showground - Allowing the 'Great' British Circus on it's land contact: Mr Adrian Johnston - info@newarkshowground.com or letter to the Newark Showground, Winthorpe, Newark, Notts. NG24 2NY and ask them to stop supporting animal circuses. "The chief executive of Newark and Nottinghamshire Agricultural Society, Mr Adrian Johnston, said they were reassured that the animals were not treated cruelly and they had no reason to believe there was any wrong-doing." Please let him know he is misguided! He has said he has only received one complaint so let's give him lots more to read.

"We have enslaved the rest of the animal creation, and have treated our distant cousins in fur and feathers (and scales) so badly that beyond doubt, if they were to formulate a religion they would depict the Devil in human form." William Ralph Inge
