In my opinion, there are way too many animal welfare groups and that you would be far better off joining them instead of everyone trying to outdo one another. It seems to be far more about the 'glory' of havig the group that wins over all the other welfare groups. Too many egos are getting in the way.

By the way pale - dont see you posting your real name either, a bit hypocritical dont you think?

PF
This is is the tag Graham Young put up after the mix up some time ago.
I totally agree with you regarding you above post.

That is why we tried to join WSPA and Animals Australia.
WSPA regected our application which is interesting especially as we had taken the only step to find alternatives to live exports.
The President of WSPA at that time was Dr Hugh Wirth. Others of course had to vote as to if we would be allowed to join them.
Others such as AA. members - Regected.

Dr Hugh Wirth was contacted many times requesting a meeting with ourselves and Muslim leaders to discuss our project to help establish more plants faze out live exports. Ignored totally.
RSPCA National invited to work together- Rejected
Animals Australia were asked time and time again to meet with us. - Regected.
I joined AA personally in an attempt to show willingness to work with them- membership cancelled and others informed not to work with PALE.
Letters to PETA ignored. Antje made telephone contact- hung up in her ear.
So whats really going on behind the Vaile of Animal Welfare?
Is it political or what you are saying PF- Or both
We dont know. Nore Care anymore.
Any application made to fund carcass trade to ME by these people above will now be seen as a deliberate act of savatage of our programe and viewd most seriously.
We are still happy to work with other groups "IN THEIR NAME" and they can take FULL CREDIT.
Providing they undertake to follow our HKM programe working with our wonderful people already involved.
To make moves to undermine us- might not be Wirth

it. I just thought I ought to wspa that

PF perhaps its time for the Government to set out some clear guidelines and take control of the industry.
We are happy to work with a proper authority.
