Banning wild animals from circuses

Last night Parliament voted unanimously to ban the use of wild animals in circuses.

This is something I have campaigned on for several years so I am delighted. For months the Government has been claiming a ban was not possible but it seems that they have finally seen sense and intend to honor the outcome of the vote. Public opinion on this is clear, and I know many constituents are overjoyed that we are one step closer to ending the cruel practice of using wild animals in our circuses.
