The Grumpy Vegan pities the poor vivisectionsists. They are the first to throw the allegation of emotion against us animal rights activists and the first to use emotion in their pro-vivisection arguments. Pot calling the kettle black, I say. Take this from the RDS Blog
The threat of animal rights extremism to the UK science base has been a defining theme of the debate about animal research in the UK for the last decade. But just as that threat is appearing to subside, new problems appear.
The prospect of a slow death [The Grumpy Vegan thinks this an unfortunate turn-of-phrase] for high-quality animal research in the UK at the hands of excessive regulation, increasing costs and a declining skills base is looming ever closer. By the time our international competitors gain ground on us, it will be already too late.
Mmmmmmm.
So, if the violent animal rights fanatics don’t get us it will be the corrupt politicians, inept civil servants and greedy transnational corporations?
