   Live Exports: A Century-Long Journey

   The demonstrations in the 1990s against the export of live animals were unprecedented. We talk to David Bowles, Head of Public Affairs and Campaigns for the RSPCA, about the efforts to end the trade, the lessons learnt, and how we seem to have lost 'middle England' in present - day campaigns. David Bowles has published Banning Live Animal Exports: Learning from A Century-Long Campaign, drawing on his deep knowledge of campaigning and international trade law as it affects animals.
