E.A.A.P.: WHO WE ARE
The European Animalist Activist Party is the first animal activist party founded with the objective of grouping all true animal lovers into one united force.
It is represented by animal activist volunteers, animal owners and by all those sensitive people feeling discomfort and intolerant to the lack of respect towards the animals.
United by a noble objective, the movement is inspired by the values of democracy, equality, solidarity and justice. Currently, participating to the political scene is the only route to a real change. Only with politics, a set of laws can be introduced in order to guarantee animal protection and safeguard.
The E.A.A.P does not make its choices based on party “colours”. It recognises pros and cons of both coalitions and will, if necessary, support any of the two, provided they are open to the debate; it aims at participating to the political process in order to place animals legal protection at the top of the political and social agenda and guide other parties to support animals’ interests.
Autonomous and independent, the E.A.A.P. is not a right or left wing political movement, but it supports all those initiatives aimed at safeguarding and protecting animal rights; at the same time it fights against those politicians who do not honour the legislative regulations in favour of animal rights, ratified by international, European and national directives.
The E.A.A.P wants to fight against local administrators and public officers wasting public money and conniving with criminal organisations and conscienceless subjects committing crimes against animals for personal interests. Such illegal system produced dramatic consequences: uncountable deaths in “lager” kennels, epidemics developed in intensive breeding, illegally processed and toxic meats, sufferings of those animals kept in zoos and circuses, the dramatic spread of stray cats and dogs.
Part of the political class is as responsible. Financed by hunters and weapons manufacturers, it approves unscrupulous European law-breaching hunting practices; corrupted by pharmaceutical industries and universities lobbies, it authorizes the wrong and useless practice of vivisection. This is considered “bad science” by the most accredited scientific sources and authoritative researchers, among whom the Scientific Responsible for the research at the European Commission Thomas Hartung. Supported by the meat industry, it does not sufficiently promote the healthy vegetarian nutrition, hiding the real damage deriving from meat eating, as oncologist Umberto Veronesi, Scientific Director at the European Oncologist Institute, has been saying for years:
"eating meat is bad”; while the American Food and Drug Administration confirms: "those who eat more than 80 grams of meat a day, raise by 8 times the chances of stomach and intestine cancer, as well as prostate cancer for men and breast cancer for women"; and so on.
Participating to the E.A.A.P does not require the payment of the social quote, nor other costs and obligations of any kind.
There will certainly be people or associations trying to put obstacles to this movement: those are the people who will obtain large personal profits, should the situation remain unchanged.
