Children’s Parliament (in memory of David Amess MP)

The Children’s Parliament is presently campaigning to rescue 15 Gentoo penguins, stuck in a dingy basement at London zoo. It has 60 MPs (and a Child Prime Minister!) founded in memory of Sir David Amess, an MP stabbed to death in his Essex constituency a few years back.

A huge campaigner for animal welfare (one of the few Conservative MPs to vote against hunting and trophy hunting), he used his Catholic faith to call for a better world for animals and the planet.

The Conservative Animal Welfare Foundation

Many people often assume that Conservatives don’t care as much about animals. But in fact, there is a Conservative Animal Welfare Foundation, packed with Tories who do care and want to change policy for the better welfare of all creatures.
